2-Minute Drill: Josh Jackson is figuring out how to use speed to his advantage near the rim

Following a similar pattern to his rookie campaign, once the calendar flipped Josh Jackson’s performance saw an uptick. And in the month of February, where the Suns have played five games thus far, Jackson is averaging 22.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 2 steals, and 0.8 blocks while shooting 50.6 percent from the floor.

The one area that Jackson has seen obvious improvements recently is picking his spots on the offensive end, as his true shooting percentage sits at 56.3. At the rim this month, Jackson is attempting 7.6 shots per game and converting a career-high 63.
