## Resource

Joshua Jefferson’s breakout season has NBA scouts buzzing—he’s now a potential first-round pick in the 2026 draft, breaking Iowa State’s five-year draft drought. Mock drafts place him around 27th, possibly with the Celtics, with a range of late 20s to early second round. His versatility and NBA-ready upside are undeniable, but a key hurdle? He’s hesitant to shoot threes in games despite having elite range and mechanics. Scouts say his willingness to shoot—and make those shots—will define his NBA impact. This is the fine-tuning that turns raw talent into elite production. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
