4. Shake n’ Bake on Deandre Jordan
If there is any moment that may indicate that Clarkson could be a star in this league, this is the one. To have the patience and basketball IQ to slow down the play, square the defender up, and take him right to the basket for the circus-shot and the foul is impressive for a player of Clarkson’s age. Not to mention that the man guarding him, DeAndre Jordan, is arguably the best defensive player in the NBA. Clarkson showed poise by not settling for the jumper and using the rim as a shield from the shot-blocker. Moves like this are only pulled-off by special players, which is exactly what Jordan Clarkson might become one day.
