No. 1 goal for Reggie Jackson next season: Make the All-Star Team
Despite being a solid player in this league since 2013, Reggie Jackson has never been an All-Star before.
He’s capable of it, though, and showed it under the brightest lights in the 2021 NBA Playoffs.
I like the press that Jackson got in that run, and if he continues to play like that in the LA market, he’ll get the respect he deserves.
Jackson is capable of making the playoffs due to his shooting, energy, and scoring potential.
He can have a lot of success in many different lineups as a combo guard, and leads by example.
If Jackson can take his game back to that playoff level, he’ll enter All-Star discussion. He’s going to be the starting point guard of a great team this year, and he’ll have the chance to continue to prove that he can do it without Leonard.
The Clippers had two All-Stars last year, but are one down for this year. If Paul George and Jackson can both go to the All-Star Game, imagine how deadly this trio is going to be in the playoffs after Claw gets back.
This team has so much potential this year, and Jackson’s performance will surely be an indicator on how far this team can go.
