Still the best pure shooter I have ever seen.

Truly impressive at any age, and certainly at his age today.

Eddie P was the best at the free throw line!

This. Being around the BB program from ‘89-‘92 was one of the highlights of my life…

Man that was so cool. I use to love the way he would one dribble between his legs and shoot.

CJ shooting threes like this is a layup drill. His crossover then stop and pop was mesmerizing and could not be defended.

Wow. About 4/5 of those makes hits the back of the rim. I wonder if he plans it that way.

Yeah, he was great. Another one I got to see live was Dwight (Bo) Lamar for USL back in the day. They had some great games with La Tech who was coached by Scotty Robertson at the time - he later went on to coach in NBA for a while

There was no team chemistry to go along with perhaps the most talented team ever.

he was Steph before Steph, and I wanted to be Chris Jackson when i was a kid, while everyone else wanted to be like Mike, but Steph is THE best shooter of all time...

doesn't detract from Chris being one of the best shooters of all time, but Steph took it to a whole different level

I thought this was another Richard Murphy type deal based on the title

Imagine him in today’s NBA. No hand check. No contact. Long range three’s are acceptable.

Lead the nation in scoring at 30.2 points a game as a freshman 6 foot guard. Highest average by a freshman still today.
He could dribble between his legs twice and shoot a three-pointer faster than you can blink.
