The Wildcat transfer shows poise and playmaking in Game 1 scrimmage.
Kentucky Wildcats transfer commit Jaland Lowe made a strong first impression at the NBA G League Elite Camp, turning heads during his Game 1 scrimmage performance.
The 6-foot-2 point guard posted a solid stat line: 9 points, 5 assists, 1 rebound, and only one turnover in 18 minutes, helping his team to an 89-85 win. He shot 4-of-8 from the field, including 1-of-3 from three, and finished with an impressive +15 plus/minus — which was the best mark on the court.
“Had his way getting into the paint, made good decisions with the ball, [and] looks to have added some muscle,” wrote Sweeney.
It’s great to see Lowe’s poise, control, and improved frame stood out in a competitive setting filled with prospects trying to earn NBA Draft Combine invites.
After transferring from Pitt and committing to Kentucky last month, Lowe is looking to make an immediate impact in Lexington. His court vision and ability to break down defenses were on full display, giving fans a glimpse of what he could bring to Mark Pope’s up-tempo offense.
With more scrimmages ahead, Lowe has a chance to further boost his stock, but if Game 1 is any indication, Kentucky may have landed a rising star in the backcourt.
