👆🏽 this. UCLA fans are not surprised. I think his basketball feel has allowed him to make up for his non-elite athleticism. I was concerned as well after seeing him get torched in the USC game. Shout out to Don MacLean for getting Jaime ready for the league. He’s leveled up and I’m so stoked to watch him succeed in the NBA. Hope Jaylen and Juzang get there.

I kept seeing people knock his athleticism during draft process and just don’t agree. He may not be the quickest/most explosive but his coordination, body control and hops made him an elite driver and finisher at the rim in college which I think will translate just fine
