TY JEROME IS PUTTING THE LEAGUE ON NOTICE 😤🔥
His first three games of the season:
⭐ 45 PTS vs. Jazz
⭐ 28 PTS vs. Warriors
⭐ 31 PTS vs. Kings
That’s 104 POINTS in three games — 34.7 PPG — with Memphis starting 3-0 🤯
At some point, you gotta stop being surprised and start respecting the scorer. Jerome has the touch, the patience and the confidence to get to his spots without letting defenders speed him up. Go under the screen and he’ll pull. Crowd him and he’ll use your momentum against you.
There’s some James Harden influence in how he changes pace, creates contact and keeps defenders guessing. He just went a PERFECT 14-for-14 at the line against Sacramento while dropping 31. Those points count too 😮💨
Give a skilled scorer the ball, the minutes and the freedom to create, and this is what can happen. Ty Jerome is making the most of every bit of that opportunity.
How long before everyone starts taking this run seriously? 👀🍿
