Jaylen Wells

Jaylen Wells is the sort of player I instinctively root for. Born in Sacramento in 2003, he didn't ride an elite pipeline into the NBA; he climbed from Sonoma State to Washington State before landing with the Memphis Grizzlies. That gradual, earned ascent tells me a lot about his resilience and self-belief. Players who grind through lower levels without losing their edge tend to handle adversity better once the lights get brighter. Carving out a rotation role as a rookie is brutally hard, so the fact that he's there already impresses me. I'll be watching how his game matures.
