I know it's early (only one summer league game), but I really think that Jalen has superstar potential. The game, the look, the confidence. So getting this in early... so long to the era of "Fear the Beard" in Houston and hello to the era of "Beware the HAIR"!!! (props to the Wife by the way, as she coined the phrase as soon as she saw the kid )
We really have to make "Thriller" a thing... somebody should send him one of those jackets. Imagine him moonwalking on the court after a stepback 3.
I don't like "Beware the Hair", It sounds lame when I say it out loud. but "Just Water" sounds pretty great which was a response to a question about his hair.
It sounds kinda off in some ways but a nickname incorporating "Wet" could work based off that and the fact that he was a wet jumpshot. Maybe something like "Wet J" as in wet jumper or wet Jalen could catch on. And then along with that he can keep the "just water" catchphrase.
I wasn't thinking of it as a nickname, just a saying. Like Arenas' hibachi or Melo 3 fingers to the head thing.
