Demetrius Jackson | PG | 6’2”, 194 Ibs | Notre Dame

This one’s a bit of reach, but the Nuggs could use a fresh backup behind Mudiay and he has already had a work out with team.  Jackson is a flashy player with spectacular athleticism.  He is able to feed the post with ease, but he’s not a great shooter himself.

He was a solid ball-handler, and he showed his leadership ability is college. I am not convinced that he could be the next Jeff Teague or a player of that caliber.

Demetrius may not be a star in the NBA, but for really any team he could prove to be a solid backup point guard.
