Jaylen is probably the frontrunner for the Most Improved Player of the Year award. Coincidentally, that award was won by another Cal guy, Ryan Anderson, back in 2012 in his last season with the Orlando Magic.
For years, I worried about his feel for the game. He was always uber athletic, but a lot of his points and affect on the game came off one-read situations. Over the last two years that has really changed, and he's making such good decisions with the ball in his hand.
