Well came into the game shooting 39% from the field and 28% from three. Reacting to one good game isn’t the answer either

I can't think of anytime someone with a brain said they wanted to get rid of NAW, unless it was in a trade involving Beal.

His shooting and decision making has been inconsistent. Everything else he does has looked good to me since last season. He just needs to be consistently better at shooting/decision making and at worst he'll become a Lou Will/Jamal Crawford 6th man type.

I still think he ultimately has all-star potential.

He is mini Kevin Durant. Kira will become infant Durant. Once Zion is shooting 38% 3pt he will be KD^2, Jaxson will always be Jaxson. Love his spastic and awkward abilities. He reminds me of Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars, just needs to learn how to control the flailing.

There's not a whole lot of well known, slightly above average 6th men to use as examples. The ones that do come to mind are crazy like JR Smith.

Getting consistency in shooting and shot selection aren't minor things, but those are 2 things that are correctable with work and coaching. So I think we have a future 6th man or

Role playing starter. But he might actually be better suited to and more valuable as a 6th man.

Well, NAW did decide to model his game after Ginobili -- who might be the GOAT of 6th men.
