Jabari Smith Jr is in a rare situation where he is playing fewer minutes, shooting less, and getting fewer touches as a sophomore than he did as a rookie but he is still scoring more point, getting more rebounds, and playing better defense.
For a top 3 pick, Jabari is in a very unique situation as far as his role goes. In 99% of cases if you heard that a top pick was getting fewer minutes and less opportunities, you’d think they’d be bummed and potentially sulking. Jabari has been pretty efficient and has improved his defense tho.
