The matchup scouts will be keying in on is at the power forward spot, between Canadian freshman
Justin Jackson, and Xavier junior
Trevon Bluiett. Jackson has the length and versatility to play anywhere from 3-5, and the fact that he was able to make an impressive 43% of his 3-pointers really helped spread the floor for point guard
Melo Trimble. While Jackson appears to be a legitimate NBA prospect (likely more for 2018 or beyond), he has been in a serious slump as of late, which likely played a major role in Maryland limping to the finish line in Big Ten play.
