Is he a finisher like LaVine? I knew the guy was supposed to be a good athlete, but LaVine is like freakish athletically. Plus he's 6'5ish, isn't Jackson like 6'2?

He is shorter like you mentioned, but he also won the McDonalds All American Slam Dunk contest. If you look at this highlight clip it's very Morey Ball. He's either knocking down a catch and shoot 3 or getting to the basket for a layup or dunk. He looks like a pretty good finisher and also has multiple dribble moves to get to the basket. LINK

He's already shown that he is a good finisher after contact. Has great body control and touch around the basket. Whether that translate to the NBA is the question. Unless you are a physical specimen, finishing around the basket is one of the toughest thing to do for a young player in the league. I hope those skills translate for him as we do not have a guy in the backcourt with strong finishing ability. All we have are jump shooters.
