Jackson is one of the most underrated big guards in Texas, and trust me, she’s going to do some damage at the next level, remember, I’m not a novice at this. She fits so many profiles I love to evaluate, yet seeing her dropping the mid to long range with a hand in her face over the years has been fun for me see evaluations here, but her powerful finishes after contact are also nice. She defends, she rebounds, she sees the floor, so trust me …

#23 up from #30 Jackson has been flip-flopping in the rankings for almost 4 years, yet she has solidified she is one of the top guards I have personally seen in Texas with her play this club season. She’s a “long and athletic” guard who can drop the mid to long-range, as well as score off the dribble see evaluations here

Jackson has been a joy for me to watch over the years as she has consistently raised her own bar on what she wants to be on the court. The work ethic and athleticism have always been there, yet watching her set the defender up to score off the dribble or drop the midrange has been nice. Yeah, she can hit the long ball, defend, and rebound, but she still has upside

Jackson doesn’t have any notes by her name because what she did is embedded in my petabyte of memory, so her “stop and pop” jumper was clicking as well as her finishing strongly off the dribble, yet she played the passing lane as well as applying “on the ball” pressure. She hit the boards and saw the floor as she will be “movin on up” aka JEFFERSONIZED

#30 (Up from #96)
Jackson makes the biggest jump in the rankings and watching her show me the same explosiveness which had me initially add her a few years ago had me smiling. She’s a “long and athletic” guard, yeah, that too is the base, and her jumper, whether she’s creating it in the set or dropping it in transition has been clicking, as so many things have as well see evaluation here

Jackson is “long and athletic” yet I summed up her game a couple of years ago see evaluation here yet her “on the court” progression had me smiling as she hit the boards on both ends and even went “coast to coast” to coast to score or dish. Her court vision across the board was solid, her first step is a problem for defenders as she attacks off the dribble and she too applied heat on defense

Jackson is also “long and athletic” and with her having the explosiveness off the dribble and being a couple of inches shy of the magic number, she is a mismatch waiting to happen. Her body control on her finishes are nice and I caught her not once, but twice over the Thanksgiving break and she gave me a little bit of everything in both. I enjoyed her elevation around the basket to score as much as I did watching her pull-up jumper yet her acrobatic finishes are nice, so is her defense and UPSIDE
