Summer Focus
Like I said, it’ll be up to Jabari to improve his jump shot over the summer, specifically his three-point shot. The Bucks are starved for shooting, and if Jabari were to develop a three-point shot, it would pay immediate dividends for both Jabari and the rest of the team.
To get there though, he’ll have to be cautious not to re-aggravate his knee injury. So far his rehab has gone extremely well, and he’s on track to be healthy for the beginning of the regular season. Luckily, shooting practice isn’t all that strenuous.
Off the court, one thing Jabari should focus on is becoming a leader. He has natural leadership talent, and being around the team even while injured for most of the season is a convincing display of his desire to be a leader of his team. Getting to know his teammates and their tendencies as well as possible can only lead to good things on the floor.
