Summary
Joshua Jefferson’s 2025-26 season exploded onto the NBA radar—turning from fringe prospect to elite draft target despite a late-season ankle injury. Projected late 20s to early 2nd round, with some mocks even slotting him as high as 27th overall to Boston, Jefferson’s high-IQ game, improved 3-point shooting (34%), and elite playmaking (5 assists/game, two triple-doubles) make him a versatile fit for any NBA system. His smarts and rebounding ability also make him a solid defender who can even play small-ball center—no athleticism needed. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
