It's been a great year for Jalen Suggs, the young Orlando Magic star who continues to establish himself as one of the premiere defenders in all of basketball. As the Orlando Magic look to build a contending team around Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner, the emergence of Jalen Suggs as a two-way menace has been the icing on the cake for a season where they've emerged as one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference.

So happy you did a video on Suggs. He really struggled a lot the past couple of years trying to be the savior at PG like he did at Gonzaga and that’s just not his role in the NBA. I’m glad he’s morphing into an unstoppable 3 and D guard who’s all over the place
Lowkey I think he actually needs to be more of an aggressive shooter on ball
As a pistons fan every time I see how well the magic have done their rebuild I die a little inside
You still have a pretty promising team. Cade and Duren are going to be very good one day. Ivey is solid. Stewart and Fontechioo could be pretty solid role players as well. Your coaching and front office are an absolute mess though. You really should be putting everything you have into putting pieces around Cade and Duren
Still just scratching the surface of his offensive potential
He's a defensive force! Im glad he's finally getting his shine! #gomagic
Love the vids where you talk about underrated players nobody is talking about really separates you from everyone else!!!!! W vid dude
Suggs development this year has arguably been the biggest development in the Magic rebuild. Paolo is the obvious #1. Franz just needs to find his perimeter shot again.
I would counter with JI. The fact that we even stuck with him after all the injuries is remarkable. And the fact that he's developed into an arguable generational defender and the best minute per minute defender in the NBA is incredible
I was hoping Franz would make a leap this year, did not anticipate the leap coming from Suggs. It’s gonna be rough trying to manage contracts on all these guys pretty soon 😬
@@ajayjaggernauth8500hell yea JI!
Hopefully Anthony Black can get that field goal percentage up a bit
AB is at 46/38.6 shooting splits. FT needs to improve. What we need to see is the efficiency stay there with increased volume.
Suggs is the guy who always gives his best effort. He is one of my favorite players to watch. His offensive improvement, especially shooting 3s, has helped this magic team find success.
Why does he look like he saw a ghost in the thumbnail 😂? I love that Suggs hustles, he really has taken an impressive leap since his rookie year.
Last year I thought he might be a trade chip, did not see this kind of breakout coming. He’s a heart of the team type guy, so glad he’s on the team.
Put Jalen and Gradey together for a picture
They high school homies fr, excited to see that jersey swap, day ones 🔥
DICK GREEN?
Rudy gon be a great veteran mentor
When that happens Jalen will unlock his full potential
Lol I doubt they'll ever let him after what happened with black 😂
HALLELUJAH A JALEN SUGGS VID🙏🏼!!
He’s a big reason why the magic are a great defensive team
His 3p% growth is motivating! His defense is S class but watching some of his defensive highlights it seems so intense bordering on reckless. Hope he gets a bag for his 3 and D and then be more selective with his defensive intensity.
GO MAGIC
He’s definitely changed his game a lot since his college days. I like the look of this young magic team
If he can just become a good slasher he’ll be a perfect role player man he’s filling out the KCP model very well
W flizzin magic video mane let’s goo 👁️👅👁️
Jalen Suggs is the heart and soul of the magic. 👏🏾 🎉
Another thing Suggs does well is throw full court out of bounds passes. The Magic will have him inbound when there’s only a couple seconds left and his throw the ball like a QB the full court to Franz in perfect stride for an easy shot.
top HS QB
@@paprvutv1054 Minnesota’s Mr. Football and Mr. Basketball.
I've been in tune his whole life. It runs in the family@@Letterman0412
GET EM' "J" !!! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dude is an absolute pit bull. So glad we finally got a team. Hope we can get a couple vs Cleveland
Kinda always viewed him as Chauncey Billups type player
40% from threes
Yah nba sickos can’t help but love Suggs, there’s some boys in Orlando another guy that really just amazes me is Paolo dudes in his second season doing some very promising stuff but people are already just throwing hate at him cuz the all star nod and don’t forget about Franz of course
Good was a fan of him coming out of Gonzaga 😇🙏🏽
I ain’t gon lie. I was hoping Celtics would’ve traded for him when his value was down. Glad to see him turn it around and help the Magic out.
As a die hard Celtcs fan that would not have been fair.
HE’S HIM
I think he leads the league in "Pick 6" Steals that result in points the other way for the player. I don't even know how they kept a stat like that lol
He’s actually been elite defensively since day 1. RAPTOR ranking rated him as one of the 5 best defensive guards in his rookie season.
This season he is actually healthy. Combined with the Magic actually winning games, he is getting his due. I appreciate how you said people are finally waking up. And offense he is coming around, now that his ankles and wrists(he sprained both his rookie season) are healthy. Still a ton of upside with Jalen on offense as well. Can’t wait to see him progress.
A uber defender like suggs in this league need better court vision and games reading, better understanding on those who he guarded, better stamina, better intensity, no doubt they worth bigger contract.
🔥🔥🔥
Future DPOY
scariest thing is suggs might not even be the best defender on the team
He’d be best guard defender, isaac is nasty too
Yeah, I love watching JI and Suggs on the floor together
His nba predraft was super misleading, I thought he was offense only , just satisfying player to watch
He was but for whatever reason his offense wasn't translateding to the nba good, so he focus on being a better defender now year 3 not only he's a elite defender now he's turn into a good shooter now shooting 40 from 3
@@halftime814 that's interesting, especially in such a short span even Zo took 3-4 years but changing your whole style is different
Some guys it happens like that. Marcus smart was the same way. Came in as franchise scoring type. Ended up being a defense hustle guy. Donavan Mitchell came in as a defender with limited scoring. Don't okay a lick of defense now but a bucket lol
IDC THAT HE'S BALDING 😤 HE'S STILL TOP 2 CUTEST MAGIC PLAYER 😫😍 (Cole Anthony 🙈❤️)
People always talk about defense. But they don’t care about the defenders. Who aren’t superstars.
Isaac next?
Just took him a few years to get going in the NBA he been a killer on defense y’all forget or might not know he was a QB & safety in high school I knew he would be a dog
The Cavs should PUSH to trade Garland for Suggs. It solves the double small guard problem for the cavs and the Magic could be interested in getting a real offensive playmaker
Bruce Brown 2.0
just putting this out there- there are too many jalens, jaylens, jaylins etc in the league now
Jalen is what a NFL player with training would be in the NBA
He’s what people thought Marcus smart was. Smart was just a flopper posing as a good defender.
Markelle better
Facts
Better at what?
miles mcbride is better
“Has the best defense” by .1 point
