Kings select Justin Jackson with No. 15 pick

The Sacramento Kings selected North Carolina forward Justin Jackson with the No. 15 pick in the NBA Draft.

Sacramento flipped the No. 10 selection to the Portland Trail Blazers for No. 15 and No. 20 earlier in the night.

Jackson returned to Chapel Hill this past season after a disappointing pre-draft process last year, and made improvements across the board. He led the national champions in scoring and shot 37 percent from beyond the arc, capturing ACC Player of the Year honors.

While Jackson has a great feel for the game, the knock on him - like some other wings in this draft - is that he lacks explosive athleticism. At 6-foot-8 and 201 pounds, there's also some concern that the 22-year-old can pack sufficient muscle onto his frame. The Texan has a deft floater and was able to easily hit contested shots at the collegiate level, something he'll need to prove against superior athletes and defenders.
