Here is a good read on Jackson...
Jackson, though small, has amazing quickness and explosion, which compensates for his lack of height. He has deft ball-handling skills which he combines with his athleticism to make him a very effective penetrator. He also has very good passing skills, easily locating open teammates for shots. Jackson needs to excersie more patience on the offensive end, sometimes shooting a litte too much and getting out of control. He plays very hard and gives maximum effort when he steps onto the court.
Jackson is an outstanding playmaker at the point guard position. He understands his role and knows how to get the ball to his teammates who can make the scoring play. He is "Mr. Assist". Size may be an issue with this kid, at 5'9'', but he puts so much pressure on opponents on both ends of the floor you just know that this kid is destined to play wherever he chooses. Lewis can break down opponents and get into the lane at will. At 5'9'' he has good lift and elevation, and can dunk it when he attacks the rim. Although Jackson can score and shoot the ball that is not his forte. Running a team, being the consummate playmaker is what this kid is all about. Lewis also puts incredible pressure on opposing point guards. He knows how to guard and makes life miserable for his opponents, creating turnovers, steals and general havoc with his play.
