This Lakers Rookie is Secretly TEARING UP the G League! | Jalen Hood Schifino has taken a BIG Leap! 

I really haven't seen much from JHS and it really opens my eyes to the real difference there is between the G-League and the NBA, if JHS is 'TEARING UP the G-League' as you say, because he isn't very useful atm on our Lakers NBA squad atm tbh with you. #lakers4ever #17championshipsandcountingbaby

my big question on him is if his nba stint did irreparable damage to his confidence. when one's first year final stat line reads a 1.3 ppg average, knowing already players drafted later are on course already to hearty nba careers, I can't recall any player who eventually turned it around to even stick around in the league long enough to even crack the mid-tier level nba player at least getting 20 min. it would be a huge hill to climb for any young player with that over his head. still if he could figure it out it would be a tremendous underdog story that would make great RU-vid content for any fan channel.

That's a key statement you made '.... not ready for the big League' I totally agree. He actually needs to stay there and not waste time on our bench, he needs to keep playing in the G-League to get his confidence and skills up or else it's going to take forever

@@vtownboxingfan he’s ready right now skill wise in my opinion but I believe he has a Ben Simmons problem. Kid has some demons to exercise because the Fans for the Lakers are brutal. If he was on a team where he can actually get minutes and awarded margin for error I think he would flourish by all star weekend but not here. He get no run, pulled fast, criticized online lol it won’t be easy for this kid plus look at max Christie situation. He took a big leap and still can’t find solid minutes on this team so JHS have wayssss to go

You see him being better than Can whitmore ?

@@Brian.Israel.Matt15.24 I think he have a better career if he’s traded. I don’t think cam wit more do good here either personally.

@@lildex1633 o you dont see neither of them striving here ? With Lakers ?

I notice that top drafted rookies of lakers can’t improve while Lebrun is still around. They will be traded for veterans to suit the need of helping Lebruns championships. Wasted were Imgram, Ball , Randle, Hart & sooo much talents 😢😢😢

for sure, a deal with the devil, I can't watch New Orleans games - losing Ingram hurt a lot because you knew he was that valuable @@daddyappletv1967

@@daddyappletv1967it’s not lebron fault they can’t shoot look at reaves he’s way better than last year it’s all about mindset

Yup🤦🏽‍♂️

I still don’t understand why we passed up on Cam🤦🏾‍♂️

Shit we traded Danny green and Desmond bane pick for 1 year rental dennis schroder

​@@iamtrap96coz hes injured

@@theyrehere.3468right. But who is JJJ ?

He’s a 20 year old rookie without a path for playing time. Not his fault that he was drafted into this situation. Gotta be happy with his development in the G

​@JSM24 "He" should be happy. Me idk. Until he does it for the actual team, it is just developing him for another team in the future, as Lakers tend to send these young players elsewhere. Thx for being active in the chat, I appreciate youtubers that do that, it's rare. You're doing a great job appreciate you. Love from Australia 🇦🇺.

You talk like you've been in the NBA . What team did you play on . I know you're a 2k player .

@@benjaminpadilla4857 people are so ignorant.. Never played 2k - just have an opinion different from yours. Did you play in the NBA to make your opinion more valid than mines?

@@JSM24 don't care about what a developing rookie does in the GL. My comments refer to his NBA play - no need to change the topic. Till he can actually contribute to winning bball my comments are valid.

A very good percentage at that! Been his most impressive improvement IMO

@@JSM24 Agreed!

Jaxson Hayes exists

@@depressedlakersfan4184 ham don't play em enough

Should draft Kel el Ware

Jackson Hayes is beyond garbage😂😂😂

Seriously - all this says is we missed on this pick on guys that are actually NBA ready. Hope his future is bright but it's not helping us now on the time line that we are on.

Everyone can not preform under bright lights

Exactly 😂

Jalen hood Schifino, will be a High level point guard, in the NBA. Wow! The guy is only 20, Or 21 years old, Dalton Knecht, Is 23. My friends, and bros, Give the guy a chance, he is Still a very young guy.

Yup but unfortunately 1st round drafts get a automatic 3+1 rookie contract

He is better offensively but a small guard that doesn’t defend

Yes but if he's 20 years old and hes doing this well in G-League right now, imagine in a few years

Watch him in Indiana vs Purdue 2023 as a freshman.

Give him time he’s a rookie

But the Lakers need to let JHS be a backup behind Spencer

@scarfacehill84 that is what we are doing just keep in mind that there are rooks that was picked after him that is killing it. Not saying he won't turn out to good but he look terrible every time I see him.

@@TaviusMinter not yet he will get torched out there

Magic let Ball "speak into being" a bad draft pick that always unlikely to work out.

The NBA is a totally different beast .... he needs to keep playing in the G-League to get his skills up imho

Ham is not what anyone would call a development coach

AR was a four year college player. The kid is 20. He needs time to develop.

He's 20 years old, if hes doing this well in G-League right now, imagine in a few years

Smh

Nick young was good
