My Take

Jabari Walker is a young player I find easy to root for, partly because basketball clearly runs in the family. He's the son of former NBA forward Samaki Walker, and you can sense that lineage in how he carries himself on the floor. After a strong run at Colorado, where he earned All-Pac-12 honors as a sophomore, he made the jump to the NBA. What I like is the type of player he projects as: a hard-working forward who rebounds and competes rather than coasting on his name. To me he's still writing his story, and that's exactly the kind of career worth keeping an eye on.

Overview

Jabari Dominic Walker (born July 30, 2002) is an American professional basketball player for the Philadelphia 76ers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He is the son of Samaki Walker and brother of University of California basketball player Sakima Walker. He played college basketball for the Colorado Buffaloes. He was named first-team All-Pac-12 as a sophomore with Colorado.
