Josh Jackson so far: two missed layups and four TOs.
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

Josh Jackson has a very low basketball IQ.

Make that 5 TOs. Everybody else on both teams combined have 6 TOs.

Would it be a bad thing to tell Jackson - "Tonight we don't want you shooting anything outside the pain unless the shot clock is expiring."?

Note from the box score: DA played the whole quarter and only took one shot.

Coach needs to wake the fuck up with his rotations. That play summed up why Chandler shouldn’t be in the league any more

They updated Jackson to 6 turnovers in the first quarter?! Is this some sort of NBA record??

Definitely lost some hops. He used to throw those down easily.

Much less standing out past the 3-point line with the ball.

This is the most embarrassing start to a game I’ve seen yet this season. We should be down 30.

Do we not even have someone who can freaking dribble the ball across half court without turning it over?

Josh is absolutely on track to be one of the biggest busts the Suns have ever had. Way worse than Bender, who had very low expectations.

Dude is Archie Goodwin but less effective
