What current NBA player has the closet legacy to Antwan Jamison? (alien.top)

Jamison has somewhat of a forgotten legacy. He was a baller for around a decade and was an all star a couple of times. Yet as time has gone on, most cardinals don’t mention him. It appears like he has somewhat of a forgotten legacy?

What player is good and at times great but overlooked?

Biggest reason for this is no real accolades in the NBA other than all-star apperance

Zach Lavine rings a bell as a guy who has balled out some nights but no real playoff moments

Antwan Jamison has a legacy?

Jamison wasn't that good. He was the epitome of the guy who scored a lot of points because he was on bad teams who needed someone to take those shots. He didn't do enough else well to turn him into a winning player while being an often-below-average efficiency high-volume scorer.

He lost his hops pretty quickly and it was impressive the way he found a way to still be a reasonably effective scorer around the basket, and he probably would have been a lot better in today's NBA. But he was a largely frustrating player to watch because the scoring wasn't that good and there wasn't a lot else there.
