How you feeling about Bari?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NBA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Houston Rockets fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
Welcome back to this week’s SB Nation Reacts, where we have some results for you. Our question this time was on Jabari Smith Jr. He went from a questionable rookie season under former head coach Stephen Silas to a much improved sophomore year under Ime Udoka. But he was a number three overall pick who many had slated to go number one in the 2022 NBA Draft. So what we asked y’all this week was if you were satisified with the development that you’ve seen from Smith thus far. Here’s what you said:
As you can see, 58 percent of you are satisfied, which is a pretty good number, though I wouldn’t fault anyone for expecting more out of Smith. Personally, I’m satisfied so far, as I think his rookie year under Silas was a throwaway, but this upcoming year is the season I’ll be looking for Bari to take the next step. I’m expecting big results from him this coming season, or I might be switching my vote to unsatisfied.
Thanks for voting, we’ll be back soon with more Reacts!
