Justin Jackson won an NCAA title with his North Carolina Tar Heels squad back in 2017 before being drafted. Portland traded him to the Kings on draft day and he recently played his third season for the franchise, one that was cut short via a trade.

Putting together unimpressive averages like 6.7 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game in his latest year with the Kings, Jackson nearly managed to resemble his so-so rookie season numbers.

In the 52 games he played with the Kings - before getting traded to the Mavericks in February - the 23-year-old shot 42% from the floor and 34% from distance playing over 21 minutes per game on an average.

He has shown signs of resurgence in his short stint with the Mavs already but none of that was ever visible during his time in a Kings uniform this past season.
