Jaaber started the game slowly, but eventually came on strong in the second half and made it a close game for Penn against #3 seed Texas A&M. He started the game just 1/5 from the field, with his only converted shot coming on a quick drive off a pick and roll at the top of the key. From there, he was able to create a couple more shots for himself, but finished the first half 3/10 from the field with his team down by double digits.
Jaaber come out of the gates on fire in the second half, and actually led Penn to a lead with around 10 minutes remaining in the game. He displayed the ability to get to the hoop and finish with a good first step and body control. Off the dribble, Jaaber adjusted well to shooting on the perimeter when being contested by physical defenders. He made two shots on pick and roll drives where he was challenged by the much taller defenders on Texas A&M. He wasn’t able to led Penn to the unlikely upset, but did all he could to keep his team in the game.
Jaaber was expected to be more of a scorer than anything today, so he is therefore more of a combo guard at this point. He did show good passing ability in the game, including one in traffic while handling the ball in transition. Jabber will need to go into Portsmouth and prove he can be a full time distributor as well as a good scorer in the NBA, but his more likely destination at this point appears to be Europe, where his skill-set is better suited.
