Does Where You Develop Matter? What Happened To JD DAVISON! Stunted Growth

[@stuntedgrowth]

JD is still only 21 years old, so in no way is it over. But should he have developed more before the NBA jump?

[@bored2374]

Do Nate Miles or William Buford stunted growth

[@therealmarlonbellamy]

He should have developed more.

[@bigstaryu]

Hey Bro, Do a story on NYC most celebrate combo Guard Felipe Lopez or 6'8 Guard Sweet pee Loyd Daniels whose life was more sadder then Chicago Leon Smith. Prayers up for Leon Smith & Sweet pee Daniels. Or story on the late Carlton Hines who was a basketball superstar and drug kingpin at the same time Dead at 24 yrs old ..He's was murder by Sex -money,murder bloods gang.

[@jaaysmoov29]

This was one of my favorite players i wished he had transferred to another college to where he could get the numbers up cause the hype of him was like ja morant and he had the skillset just wished he capitalized off it like for another year

[@Dom2.0]

Always just depends where you get drafted, even for an NFL QB

[@mr4cccc]

Shout out to you for doing this video. I was able to teach this young man in middle school and he was always respectful. He is about to win a ring with the Boston Celtics and coming from Lowndes County, AL that is HUGE. Wishing this young man nothing but success 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@Supreme36074]

Definitely should’ve stayed in college another two years. Polished his game. It couldn’t have hurt him. Agents get in the players ear however or people period. Making the league is a goal & accomplishment in itself but lasting should be the main one.

[@Mark-oe1df]

I hope the NIL encourages players to stay in college and develop longer. Most one and dones don't even be ready which leads to a short career.

[@2waybklyn752]

NIL deals should keep the players in collage long enough now to develope. Since thier making money in collage it should not be a rush to be a 1 and done.

[@yesimemoin0935]

He could've been overshadowed by older more skilled guards and never been drafted at all. Going early while he had the hype made sense.

[@craiggrayson9036]

No making sure u actually make the NBA instead of jus being able to pull up to the parking lot of a NBA stadium

[@Pesomcfly]

As a Bama fan he definitely needed another year to work on his shooting but we were so deep at the guard positions and Brandon Miller was comin so i get why he kept name in draft

Jd is measured at 6'0.5 barefoot, but his standing reach is 8'3.5. Avery bradley's standing reach is 8'2.5, so there is some hope jd can at least be a backup sg or 3rd string sg in the nba.

He plays for the Celtics right now...He is going to get a ring...

[@MAXIMUSWE]

On 2 way contract ineligible to play in the playoffs. That's not gonna do much for the resume if you don't even play lol

[@stuntedgrowth]

I never understood this thinking. Who wants a ring you didn’t contribute to? Just to say you have it? I wouldn’t want that and it matters 0 to his career. No team is going to sign him because he has a ring he didn’t contribute to. Cool though, but who wants that.

[@stuntedgrowth]

It’s like most lebrons rings. Who wants them when you got them so easily. All but his 2016 ring I don’t respect.

[@MAXIMUSWE]

@stuntedgrowth I know myself personally , It wouldn't feel like an accomplishment to me if I wasn't a main contributer lol. I might not even accept the ring. I wouldn't felt like i earned it. 🤷‍♂️

[@tetuone11]

You honestly think his teammates would vote for him to get a ring?

[@larrellhill1386]

He’s a very humble young man & has great work ethic from what I seen from old interviews at the height of his popularity few years back. I loved his highlights reels too, it’s just coming from such poor area & dominating players at that level in high school. I kinda knew he may rush to join the league too fast not even just for the money but to simply get a jumpstart on his career. May have thought whatever he learned in college play can be done twice as fast in the NBA. Just that reality sets in & many young players realize the NBA is just a totally different animal that your game has to be matured & well equipped for.

[@GHOST91141]

He should have stayed in school just one more year & I think he would've been ok in the league

[@ecinquebz]

It will be interesting to see what happens with the Celts. He's a really good player I've watch some of Maine Celtics G league games and he's done well when he's gotten time with Boston in the regular season. I'm hoping he gets a chance with the C's

[@izclxtchhq9340]

why the heck did the celtics pick him up bruh.. should be on team that needs a player like him to rebuild with and develop.

[@justineebourgeois3420]

JD Davison > Killian Hayes 🤷‍♀️

[@stuntedgrowth]

Facts

[@mr.bigbrother7112]

Yea most likely lol

[@aisosaobano7038]

It’s funny really. Hayes had the capability to be a good scorer. Unfortunately for him he couldn’t shoot to save his life but since he’s a decent defender on that level they gave him burn to figure it out. We all know how that ended up. Then you have JD who if given the same opportunity would probably have developed into at least a solid rotational player.

[@DEMI-sq5uf]

Sharife cooper>Keon Ellis (and yes I watch the kings)

[@MitchellBahamas]

[@pauluy9777]

I wonder what agents tell these prospects and their families that they take a very huge risk and with a smaller reward. All these “one and done” getting exposed in college and the pros

[@jaahnnn]

He got drafted. If he stayed in school he could've ended up like jahvon

[@West_Endian205]

JD definitely shoulda stayed another year or 2 in college to polish his game more. I'm from Alabama as well. He dominated high school ball but only cuz he played for a small school. His school was classed like 2A or 3A.

[@jaymoneydfg]

The larger schools were always a challenge for JD in high school. He entered the draft while his name/reputation was still hot although his college performance was poor.

[@youngballer6524]

If you watched game 2 of the finals you’ll notice him sitting in the first few rows of the stands

[@SUPREMEgoldchain_REAKTZ]

I was looking for him this college season but I didn't know his name to look him up. When I noticed he wasn't playing I was like, "Damn, he was a senior?" Cuz he was a key piece but not good enough to leave early. Let alone his fresman year. He'll I didn't even know his name

[@dogsareepic6197]

As a Celtics fan, I’ve watched his G League games. While he might not be a true point guard, he has the potential to become a solid bench player. Although he can be a bit sloppy, his exciting style of play allows him to put up impressive numbers. To succeed in the league, he’ll need to improve his defensive skills, leveraging his athleticism and lateral movement

[@CM-ft9ep]

Classic tweener, kills in the G where's his explosiveness can make a difference but can't hang in the League because he can't shoot the three. Plus, he got drafted by a team that has great guards. Doubt he gets much more of a chance with the Celtics.

[@yigyountry]

[@DiorInEveryStore]

I mean Tj Mcconnell can’t shoot the 3

[@CM-ft9ep]

@@DiorInEveryStore That is a fact. If JD had the craft McConnell has he wouldn't need one either. All I can say is I've watched Davison play with the big team, last year in preseason, and he looked totally out of his depth. As a Celtics fan I really wish he would progress, but I'm skeptical at this point.

[@MJU682]

He was the youngest guy in the draft the year he was picked. He has a lot of developing to do and we’re not in a rush. Jordan Walsh also was the youngest in the draft and we picked up Jaden springer who was the youngest in his draft. These guys are specimens just way too young so let’s develop them in the system and no reason to rush

When you speak of him being a point guard… he fits better as a point guard due to his facilitating I.Q. He is an exceptional reader on the floor he sees and know where everyone is on the floor his bonus is he can actually score in the paint and be an outside shooter… he’s an all around player, he needs to be on a team that needs his skills. Boston is top heavy… a good fit can be the Knicks poor Jalen needs help and JD can be utilized there… I hope the Celtics do not waste his talents he can be special if he gets that chance

The biggest balance is learning when it’s time for YOU and not base it off of somebody else. Somebody else may be ready at that time, but it doesn’t mean you are.

[@donttakemeseriouslyimatrol6699]

right, that makes his dunking abilities more impressive

[@buzzerbeater3350]

@7:35 When Jalen Brunson first came in the league no one thought his play style would work. Now he's become the template for what a PG should be.

[@MAXIMUSWE]

I wouldn't say that - he's definitely over achieved and people respect him for that , but teams aren't looking for undersized below the rim point guards lol. If that were the case every PG projected in the 2nd round would be filling rosters. Brunson is just DIFFERENT. It seems like there's some correlation between having NBA fathers as well - they're blessed with those genetics & knowledge, their fathers know exactly how hard it is to break into the league and have connections throughout the league as well to develop the kids growing up.

[@buzzerbeater3350]

@@MAXIMUSWE No, this is true. Coach Nick from BBall Breakdown, among other coaches, has said coaches are now teaching their young players to play like Brunson. You won't see the impact for a few years. People said the same thing about Steph Curry. Now almost everyone has to be able to shoot the three.

[@MAXIMUSWE]

@buzzerbeater3350 Yes , I'll partially agree with that sentiment, because he plays the right way. I don't think though a far as athleticism, shooting form etc , size they're looking for players like him. It also hasn't made them stop selecting 1 and dones either. It's just the same as TJ McConnell, factually one of the best pure point guards in the league - but just because of what he looks like his size etc , and not being a offensive first kinda guy , teams don't generally draft guys like him. In fact he was undrafted himself, and people STILL say he stinks. Although that's mostly casual fans.

The whole idea of positionless basketball is predicated on shooting. If you can't shoot efficiently you're out in the cold.

If he stayed another year learned how to shoot he could've been a 1st round pick and secured a bag. Not sure what 2 ways pay now.....but nothing close to a regular minimum contract. It mightve cost him being set up for life regardless if he stuck or not Sounds like people around him weren't giving good advice & just gassin him up hopin to reap the rewards
