The Youngest Player in the NBA Shouldn't Be THIS Good Already

- GG Jackson has been unstoppable lately for the Memphis Grizzlies, racking up a sizable amount of 20+ point games in only 19 minutes a night. GG Jackson was a controversial prospect with all sorts of reports coming out prior to the 2023 NBA draft about things like his attitude and maturity, but you'd never know it by watching him lately.
The Memphis Grizzlies haven't had the season they probably wanted to have, but the Ja Morant injury has allowed them to focus more on youth development, and it's clear that GG Jackson is benefitting greatly from it.

As a grizzlies fan even though our season is over I’m so glad him and Vince are showing out this season
Ik. Excited about next season now that we have real wings. We need need bigs now.
Good thing we'll most likely have a lottery pick.
@@ledgnr197gaming5 Claxton 👀
I say trade Vince Clarke in a package for a good wing
Vince is like a big body it helps him a lot cause he’s a raw talent right now and isn’t completely comfortable yet. I hope those dudes know about TA, grizzlies getting so much young talent not enough room for Just scoring gonna need some DEFENSE
Easily my favourite Alex hoops vid love GG Jackson crazy how he fell so far in the draft
So excited to be a grizzlies fan going forward. The development of Jarens Offense, bane feeling freedom to go nuts, Aldama having getting great minutes playin w his european flair and iq, GG and vince absolutely looking gross. Crazy how much talent there is in the league now.
I'm an OKC fan and I wanted us to take GG with the 12th pick on draft night 🤦♂ It's criminal how far he fell.
bet your happy enough with who you did pick though🤣
who
@@samn90834
At least you have cason wallace from that trade
Cason Wallace is a stud
he would have had a real chance to be the #1 pick this year
I’m a griz fan and I knew GG was gone be special his body frame at this age is crazy and his only going to grow he will be scary soon I’m glad he on the grizzlies
Great video as always alex. Teams hitting on 2nd round picks is how teams keep their contending window open and the grizzlies did that drafting gg jackson and vince williams. Now they have 2 very solid role players to be in their rotation to contend for the next few years on cheap contracts
GG looks like a baller I believe in him to be a great support star
He looks like NBA youngboy.
Only brightside of our season have been him and vince, becoming the wings we need. Next year will be great hopefully. In Kleiman i trust.
This season may have been sad so far and it’s gonna be a wash, but it allowed Vince and GG to develop into really good role players for next year. We get a good center this offseason (Claxton???) and next year the grizzlies look daaaangerous
GG was a top recruit in HS and balled out as a 17-18 yo freshman in college
anyone that drafted him on 2k knows he can be an allstar by 22
Crazy he dropped in the draft so far he could been top 15 atleast
The first 20 games of next season is going to be so interesting to see where GG is. He's thriving in the scoring role he's been given right now but when he's trying to fit in while the Grizz (hopefully!!) always have at least one of Ja Bane Jaren on the floor, will he be able to find the right mix of catch and shoot and creating his own shot to play winning basketball? Will defensive and passing improvement help him be a dude who fits in any lineup? His assist numbers are worryingly low; if you're a black hole on offense then you're easier to guard in important moments.
Some Grizz fans are talking about him like he's the 2nd option of the future. But he's not there yet and how he fits into the healthy roster while trying to develop into that is going to be big. It's so hard to evaluate his ceiling because in my mind that fluctuates between 6MotY and legitimate All-NBA threat. (Keep in mind, that's ceiling. Not guarantee)
He was supposed to be a star before the draft, being the first pick, but he dropped a lot. So I mean technically he was expected to be good.
After this video, I picked him up in fantasy basketball haha thanks Alex!
Dude _needs_ to nail a series-winning three. GG no re.
Didn’t know anything about this dude until I saw him popping off of late, great content man
Pulled a very low numbered card of him and contemplated if I should hold or sell it now, because I don't know if his going to get this much opportunity when the team is back and healthy scared that he might end up like Eric Paschall who puts up number on a bad team
As a South Carolinian, I’m thankful for GG keeping the tradition of South Carolina players. Ja and Zion opened it back up. Collin Murray-Boyles is on the rise next.
You guys are matching up with North Carolina a lot more now when it comes to top nba talent production
@@tako4mvp719I mean if you want to be Honest we had NC in 95-96: KG, Ray Allen, Jermaine O’Neal
Grizz fans got a perfect guy to fit the lineup
I don't know how I ended up here, but I'm glad I did.
One of the highlights of a painful season
Looks like Paul George on offense
The real question with GG is when will he wear the long sleeve undershirt again, him and jett need to bring that to the nba
One of the things with him is some of his off the court issues, if he gets that past him he can defo be a fantastic player
What off court issues do you speak of?
@@fluidsoffornication4636 he’s been disciplined 3 times during practices etc. one time because he hit a vape during practice and a staff member walked in on him
@@aymanhaque3829that's just young man shit, he'll sort it out for sure. Guy genuinely looks like a star in the making.
It’s all in the name this guy’s name is GG Jackson if that isn’t the name of someone great in the sport of their choice idk what is
Grizz set several records for injuries this season. 594 player games missed (vs 85 for the Thunder). 33 players played minutes. They deserve some lottery luck, and then, next year, knock on wood, they reclaim their rightful spot among the top of the league.
Wow he moves like a guard that’s crazy
🔥 🔥 🔥
Broooo GG really bringing it. Him and Ja could really do something special. The only thing with GG is his size because he’s young besides that buckets! If he continues to develop I can see them moving Bane
GG Youngboy.
"Gg" is a killer,full of potential and a great work ethic. This guy is gonna be a problem. 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
On God I saw Desmond bane highlights before he got to the grizzlies and said he's going to be great and gg I feel the same way about.we lost brooks but found a better player for years to come in GG.Grizzlies we have found our 4th franchise player. He's only a baby wait until he's more mature ww gone be deadly
That kid good 👍 Carolina style
Ja, baneb, gg and jj
Smart, Clarke and Vince Williams as well
Saw him play in high school
So I'm only a few seconds in, but this guy was a 5 star recruit? Between that and him being the youngest guy in the draft, how was he not picked top 15?!
Edit: oh, so that's how. And yet Cam Reddish went top 10 in his draft
As usual orgs don't know what the fuck they're doing come draft night. This dude gg looks better than Dillon brooks already. If he can chuck on 10 pounds of muscle he's going to become an absolute 2 way 2k player.
An 18 year old is still learning how to play the game. The best classroom -- sitting on the bench and listening to veteran players.
GG Jackson got a higher ceiling than Jayson Tatum
what a steal.
Memphis had JJJ and now GGJ. 😂 Wow.
He's going to be this generations Robert Horry. He'll be a championship piece. If Wemby or Antman or somebody like that ever reach they're Prime, GG can be that third.
Or, lol, or... He becomes Kawaii 2.0
Bronny gonna go down the gg Jackson college path
So if he were in the 2024 draft he'd go top 5
probably top 3 tbh 2024 draft is horrible, but yeah.
Baby Giannis
Basically ziarie williams if he panned out
Surprise Jitty Highlight pack.
He was projected to be a lottery pick prior to college season don’t why teams didn’t take a chance on him sooner
gregory.
he reminds me of a young giannis
Naz Reid
GG WAS THE #1 OVERALL PLAYER COMING OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL 2 YEARS AGO SO WHATS THE SUPRISE
He plays like Rui
Did Rudy commission this video?
He looking like a steal
Gg will make 8 finals and win 3
Just a reminder when Lebron James entered the NBA. As in when Lebron James STARTED playing at an NBA level.....GG Jackson wasn't even born yet. Absolutely blows my mind.
He probably just had a bad coach that doesn't know how to incorporate his game to the team or his teammates are not doing well with him.
Pretty sure the youngest is Haliburton
Halliburton is 24. GG is 19.
@@gentleben5888 nah hali is 5 GG is 19
I think Cam Whitmore is the “steal” of the draft but I think GG is going to be really nice.
Nah they both are steals. The way GG is playing against great teams, yea he definitely a steal
So the next paul george?
He should be getting ready for the tourney with RJ & Mando. He’s going to be a beast tho
How can you skip your senior year of hs and be eligible for college. He probably missed important subjects / classes.
Still pissed Hornets didn't get GG at #41
I wanted the rockets to get him they got two good picks but I knew this kid was gonna be good since highschool
too bad aldama did not evolve these yr. they could move on from him.
Enough is Enough. Jacob Gilyard is the second coming of Jesus Christ when will the people see
Not enough ball for everyone. He gonna fall off but he’s a great trade chip
He’s a great off ball player not ball dominant at all
Ja morant is a bozo
Says Seth. Your name is Seth for crying out loud
