Despite being a late-second round pick in 2023, Jackson-Davis ended up making a real impact for the Warriors as a rookie, getting consistent playing time and even starting 16 games. He's a skilled center that has enough athleticism to make up for him being undersized at just 6'9". Offensively, Jackson-Davis was a dominant post scorer in college. That won't be his role going forward in the NBA, but he still uses that skill on occasion, particularly against mismatches or on quick duck-ins when he can get deep position. It also helps him as a finishes in pick-and-roll. Jackson-Davis shot 76% at the rim and 48% from floater range as a rookie, both very good numbers. It's unlikely he will ever be able to extend his range, and he only shot 55% from the free throw line as a rookie. He shot around 68% from the line in college though, so he's probably better than his rookie year suggested. Jackson-Davis has good vertical pop as a lob-threat and good hands when catching passes. He also would occasionally fake a handoff and drive for dunks, including a couple poster dunks as a rookie. He is a little bit left hand dominant, and will need to work on going to and/or finishing with his right. He is also a very good offensive rebounder. Defensively, Jackson-Davis will usually be giving up a few inches to other centers, but he is strong and can battle in the post. He had high block numbers in college, and that continued during his NBA season as a rookie. He's mostly a drop defender but he can get out and move his feet on the perimeter at times. You wouldn't want him in a full switching scheme, but if he has to switch he isn't automatically cooked, especially late in the clock where he only has to hold up for a few seconds. Jackson-Davis will already be 25 years old as a potential free agent in 2025, so he's not really a young prospect, and is quite a bit older than most players in his class. However, he has already shown the ability to contribute. I think Jackson-Davis could carve out a career for himself as a high-level backup center, or possibly even a starting center.
