Jalen is explosive. 6'4 but plays like 6'8 around the rim. He needs to fix his low release on that jumper. He reminds me of Jaron Hopkins who didn't exactly pan out in Tad's system.

This is a great assessment. I'd say Jalen's game is more aggressive than Hopkins' was. The issue I see is that in HS 6'4" works around the rim. I college he's going to get bodied and his outside game is not good enough to play him as a wing.
