Reggie Jackson Eager To Start Life Under Nick Nurse
4 weeks agoPhiladelphia 76ers point guard Reggie Jackson is excited to link up with Nick Nurse in the City of Brotherly Love and isn't overly concerned about his playing time, despite facing a lot of competition for minutes at the point guard position. "Since he was with the Raptors and became a head coach, kind of seeing how his team played, it was very interesting," Jackson told Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer. "Obviously, they played Lowry and (point guard) Fred VanVleet … how well they played together. They played long lineups where you had (forwards) Kawhi (Leonard), you had Pascal (Siakam), you had (Chris) Boucher. Shoot, he played (post players) Serge (Ibaka) and (Marc) Gasol at times together." Jackson finds himself as the third point guard in Philadelphia behind Tyrese Maxey and Kyle Lowry. However, he could still play a significant part in the rotation if Nurse continues to roll with lineups featuring multiple point guards.
