    He shouldn't be leading the team in shot attempts, simply because he cannot get his own shot all the time. He needs to be set up.

    He 100% needs to be given a fair few of Jalen's shot attempts though.

    I think that was some of the posters’ point is he needs more shots in regards to his ppg you pointed out.

    To me he is currently the player on the team most conducive to winning a championship. Perhaps not the best player on a championship team. But the player that will be a winning player in almost any situation.

    As many people including me when he was drafted a player akin to a taller Klay Thompson. Hopefully he can improve to get to the player Klay was one day.

    He absolutely can't be the #1 option. I like him a lot but his ceiling is MPJ.

    Forget about a taller Klay. I want him to be a Giannis with a jumper (and 80% FT shooting). :D

    His game reminds me of Bosh...good all around player...good 3rd option. He can create his own shot but the next step should be creating for his teammates...if develops that...then I can see him as the first or second options! He is nowhere close to that but he his young enough to develope that

    Jabari’s true value comes from that he doesn’t need much touch to help teams to win. The things that what he been doing past 3 games are the player that teams drool over and gives a lot to add to their team.
