Strengths: Elite-level shooter … If he is left open it’s a guaranteed basket … Capable of knocking down perimeter shots off the dribble and in catch-and-shoot situations … Active off the ball … Has experience working off pin-downs and maneuvering through screens … Was the go-to guy most of his career at Iowa … Could potentially be even more dangerous as a role player … Has the height and length to excel as a 3-and-D type of player … Seasoned and experienced player after staying all four years with the Hawkeyes … Will be able to contribute right away if given the opportunity … Can score at all three levels … Has the requisite stamina to play continuously off of screens on offense … Can score at the rim if defense overplays him for the jumper … Passable defender that uses his length to his advantage … Long arms allow him to cause havoc in the passing lanes … Quick hands allows him to be disruptive …
Weaknesses: Not very explosive … Needs to put on weight … Very skinny and must up his strength if he wants to get consistent playing time in the NBA … As the primary offense for the Hawkeyes he had free reign to shoot any shot, must become a more efficient scorer … Isn’t the most patient defender … Struggles to guard more athletic players one-on-one … Didn’t seem to be a willing passer or playmaker … Very little upside and potential left in his game as a prospect entering the draft after his senior season …
Outlook: Jok’s greatest skill will definitely get him a shot to play in the NBA … With a couple slight adjustments and improvements he could easily become a rotation piece on a contending team … He has the make-up and the tools of the perfect wing player for today’s NBA.
