Recently signed by Utah, Kenneth Lofton Jr. is having a blast in the G League! The interior, Wemby’s former rival in the selection, dropped 53 points and 16 rebounds last night with the Jazz reserve.
There’s nothing like little league to show yourself in your best light and score points with your coach. Will Kenneth Lofton Jr. succeed in convincing Will Hardy to give him a few minutes with the Jazz at the end of the season? The native of Port Arthur, Texas, is giving himself the means to achieve his ambitions in any case. Last night, the former Grizzlies simply slammed his career record with 53 points against the soon to be defunct G League Ignite Team. To go towards this surge in scoring, 16 rebounds and 5 assists, all at 20/29 shooting. A pure and simple destruction of the opposing racket.
As always with Lofton Jr., we see the fundamentals, the good hands under the basket, the footwork that goes well to position himself and a few butt shots to make room inside. The guy has always proven that he is capable of scoring. It is especially defensively that the youngster must progress if he wants to have a chance in the NBA over time. His season in the antechamber of the League is in any case excellent. Between his time with the Delaware Blue Coats and now with the Salt Lake City Stars, Kenneth Lofton Jr. compiles 26 points, 9 rebounds and almost 2 blocks per game this season (14 contested).
