Jd was a big fish in a very small pond at a small HS BB program. I realize these guys get a lot of hype playing AAU ball but he is now a very small fish in a very big pond facing bigger stronger players who are older and more mature. Just thinking out loud guys
Thing is, he really didn't get a proper AAU experience with COVID cancelling so much. He missed a shitload of prime development opportunity, that he didn't get in 2A Alabama basketball. So I'm not surprised he's been timid and turnover prone. He has a lot to learn, but the potential is obvious. But I don't think he'll stay at Bama long enough for us to see the switch flip, and him taking over.

His athleticism is off the charts, may take him a year or two but whenever the light turn on and he gains confidence and comfort, he will be a really strong asset for the team.
