So Action Jackson played a stunning 19 games straight without a turnover. But also 10 games with 1 or zero rebounds.
Now he seems to be out of the rotation.
Is this just a player who disappears, or worse is he a player who hides? He just doesn't make any impact on the game unless he's scoring. But it's nothing new ... in fact his dad said Jackson has never wanted to be "the guy." and an NBA scout said back in 2017 "He was sort of OK blending into the background, letting Brice Johnson and Marcus Paige do the heavy lifting."
I just don't know how you build him into a consistent rotation player, much less starter-level impact player. Just ZERO killer instinct. No emotion. No "want to." The crazy thing is he knows how to cut and move off the ball. He can shoot a little. Still has a George Gervin floater. Just no heart.
