It was evident as soon as he entered campus.
Jaden Ivey would be a future NBA player.
Not when it comes to that. But the way he’s progressed since committing to Purdue is faster than any of us imagined.
Going from a 4-star recruit to an All American in just over 2 years is quite a remarkable run. His All-American campaign and his last dance in a Purdue uniform did not go as planned. But if the NBA says you’ll be a top 10 pick, go and get the bag.
Jaden Ivey appears in the top 5 most pseudo-drafts and most keyboard heroes I’ve seen, tell me HOW!?
I think an argument can be made that he will be a better pro than a college basketball player. The bigger pitch, the more spread out offense and the fluid game will only benefit him
It will rarely happen that he drives on the lane and there are 2 or 3 defenders as they have to defend all the shooters on the rim, allowing for more Showtime dunks than we’ve ever seen during his time at Purdue.
The distance and skills of the big ones will allow him to do an even better job at the next level pick and roll.
Jaden Ivey is a pro. Potentially a future star at the next level. An NBA team will put him in the top 10 and his future will depend on his ability.
In some mock drafts, he goes as low as #2 and as deep as #7.
Thanks to the boy from South Bend. I think we can all agree that we wish we had another year – but when the federation calls, you take that plunge. Good luck Jade!
