Justin Jackson blamed his lack of aggression in the first game of the California Classic for his disappointing performance.
“I didn’t go out there confidently,” Jackson said after his 20-point performance on Tuesday. “I’ve worked on a lot of things this summer. Every day I try to work on things. It’s part of the confidence aspect and knowing the talents that God gave me, whatever he has for me that’s what he has.”
Jackson heard the noise and regained that aggressiveness, putting up 11 and 17 shots in the final two games of the inaugural tournament, respectively.
