If you love college basketball, you remember Jimmer Fredette as a legend. If you prefer the NBA, you probably remember him as a bust. How and why can same the player satisfy both legacies, and what do we make of the rest of Fredette's pro career? Let's visit the less-known chapters of Jimmer's story in the Prism.

I'm glad you mentioned JJ Redick, because that is a much better comparison to Jimmer than Steph Curry is. Coming out of college, Steph had the ball-handling and playmaking already; nobody doubted him as being at least capable of being a serviceable PG to go along with his shooting ability. The questions surrounded Jimmer & JJ were that they didn't have the PG skills and they were undersized as SGs. JJ developed into a pretty decent defender which increased his value. Jimmer never found that secondary skill.

I went to high school with Jimmer. He's a dude of incredible integrity, and though it may not seem like success to some, he had massive success in his career and it was all so deserved. He was the most unbelievable high school athlete that I've ever witnessed up close. When Jimmermania was happening at BYU, it felt like a parallel universe, but it also made so much sense. He worked harder than anyone, was very quiet, but kind, and when he stepped on the court, he made magic. He also once dunked so hard on me in a driveway basketball game that i got a bump on my head from the ball. Thanks for covering him!

Exactly. There was a time where Sacramento was where lottery picks fell by the wayside and failed to meet expectations due to the coaching carousel there. Spencer Hawes, Jason Thompson, Jimmer, Thomas Robinson, Ben McLemore, Nik Stauskas, Willie Cauley-Stein… Even how Tyreke Evans and DeMarcus Cousins’s respective tenures ended there… Sacramento was just not a franchise where lottery picks thrived.

I think that’s fair. I know people don’t like that, but outside of maybe the top 2 picks in any draft, fit plays a big role. The kings were drafting bad and had a horrible front office. As many flameouts happened there, I think it’s logical to at least point some blame there.

Jimmer definitely could have played in the NBA. It’s not a coincidence he excelled everywhere but the league. Opportunity to play, adapt, make mistakes and learn is a privilege. Jimmer played 18 mins his rookie year for a horrible team, organization and coaches who didn’t like him. Never got another legitimate chance. Situation is everything. He isn’t the only one this has happened to over the years.

Some would argue we have two echoes of Steph at least - Dame Lillard (who is still NBA75 level and a probable hall of famer), and Trae Young. If they aren't good enough, sure we haven't had the next Steph. But that would mean Kobe doesn't qualify to be the next MJ, and he's a top 20 at a minimum all time.

I think folks forget his comparison was based on Steph in college. Like at the time, being compared to Steph wasn’t the same as now. Jimmer’s last 2 years of college ball are the only thing I’ve seen close to Steph as far as hype. He legit was the best 3 point shooter anybody had seen since Curry’s tourney. Steph got a March madness run, but Jimmer legit ran ESPN coverage during that stretch. Looking back, it was a bad comp because he was never as consistent as Steph and all he could do was shoot.

I'll be honest: It was only because of Jimmer that I heard of BYU. I was a 17 year old high school junior when Jimmer took BYU on that March Madness run. Some Mormon kid from my school ended up going to BYU, so those are the only two reasons I know BYU exists. That was one heck of a college run from Jimmer.

It’s always a good time when a new Secret Base video drops. I follow basketball leagues from around the world so appreciate the acknowledgment of the Chinese Basketball Association as a legitimate professional league with talented players. Just because it may not be considered the top league globally doesn't diminish its value and it should not be underestimated. Similarly, while the MLS may not showcase the world's best soccer talent, it should be regarded and respected as a professional league. Globalization of sports elevates the game, enhancing its overall quality (Jokic, Ohtani, etc.) so just basing judgments solely on a league's country of origin is pretty ignorant, which is a common sentiment that I’ve personally come across.

Your reply doesn’t quite address my earlier statement. My point is that people are quick to dismiss the CBA as so bad that 'normal' folks can just enter the league and dominate. While this notion is absurd, I’ve come across this delusional line of thinking a bunch of times. I’m not asserting that all pro leagues are the same-the EuroLeague is better than the CBA, but that comes with more developmental time. The CBA was only founded in 1995 and being a younger league, it will have its growing pains. That said, the CBA is still a professional league, and my point is that anecdotally, I’ve seen a fair share of comments that dismiss it as an amateur league, which it is not.

I remember his senior year very well. I am a UNLV fan, and at that time they were in the same conference as BYU. Jammer could absolutely take over a game with his ridiculous 3 point range. 40 or 50 points for him wasn't unusual. Although even i could tell them that he wouldn't do well in the NBA. He couldn't dribble drive and had no defense. I remember that same year, Trevon Willis was a star guard at UNLV and a reporter asked if he voted for Jimmer for player of the year for the conference. He said no, he voted for Khawi Leonard. So many reporters and fans hated on him saying he was just jealous. But any unbiased person could see that Leonard was a complete player

@HermannTheGreat idk, trade PG for sabonis and oladipo, had a couple of great years from vic, traded him for levert. Sabonis turned out to be a bad dude, we got Haliburton and buddy. Their management isn't so bad, the pacers biggest problem= they are located in indiana. I love my state but... let's be honest

@@jordanalexander5275Yeah, the recent drafts and trades have been excellent. Oladipo had a body taht couldn't handle the wear and tear, and his mind also got warped when Indy paid him too much. PG had his mind broken by Lebron and he never could return to what he was after his drama, Lebron owned him imo. The most recent team seems to be the most talented of the last several years, its unfortunate they couldn't keep Sabonis, but I'd rather have Haliburton.

The problem with the NBA is that everyone has a role, and if you can’t fit in with what that team wants, you’re as good as gone.

I'd like to kinda play Devil's Advocate on Jimmer's time in Europe. He couldn't create his own shot the way other former NBAers have been able to, like Larkin, Mike James, or Nunn, and he was HOUNDED on defense. So much so that Rick Pitino (the team's coach at the time) would sometimes bench him during clutch time in close matches. And he bounced on the first opportunity he got, and went back to China. I wouldn't call his time in Europe a successful stint. But when he was on, he was a really fun player to watch.

Being from that part of up state NY and being a little boy when he came through jimmer seemed like a super hero. Luckily by the time JG3 came through a few years later and broke his record we knew to lower expectations. Anyone who likes a good college ball I encourage you to watch Joe in his senior season at Clemson before he goes and becomes a legendary figure in Italian or Israeli basketball :)

Jimmer was more of a precursor to modern NBA than Steph, even though he came after. He was the one to popularize basing your complete game around the threat of the 3-pointer, and he made the logo range 3s a thing. Never forget Jimmer range

You didn't even mention his stint with the suns in 2019 where he shot 1-10 and ball-hogged in the 4th quarter to prevent Booker from scoring 60! Jimmer went 0-13 in his 3 point attemps that season That was one of the funniest games I've ever watched. The jazz home crowd cheered for Jimmer louder than they did for their own team
