Trayce Jackson-Davis Film Breakdown | Is TJD a Defensive Star?
The newest Toronto Raptor has a very special set of skills, and those skills could make him a NIGHTMARE for teams without elite rim protection. TJD represents an ideal candidate to become Scottie’s favorite teammate for a lot of reasons. Let’s take a look at his skills both offensively and defensively with a positive outlook on what he COULD become.

i can’t keep up with all these lives
He’s got impressive leaping ability
Comparing TJD to allstar Scottie is a sacrilege. However, if he plays with energy he will have success with us.
When I watch him play I find he is almost never fully extended, his knees are always bent or he his hunched over. Hope that doesn't lead to physical issues.
Basketball I.Q is lacking with many of today's player's.
pumped to see this guy debut for the raps on sunday
Now thats what i call hunting for highlights
He has unique offensive skills despite not having mid range and 3 points. He has unique combo of being a low center of gravity roller to basket or being lob threat. Most high flyers are good at finishing lobs but not good at rolling to basket. TJD can do both.
Hes a two ways player. I was hoping he be the foundation for GS in the future but raptors stole him. Damn. Draymond green is biggest culprit in this. He needs a stretch 5.
Anyway I have seen pairing of TJD with an unathletic white seven footers who has perimeter shooting and those guys are a dime a dozen in the league.
But TJD rare combo of having good hands, capable of setting good picks and being a lob threat makes him unique
His inside game is better than anyone in raptor roster.
Jakob is no better than sabonis. The kings team with sabonis sucks year and year out.
You cant win a Jakob or sabonis type of players.
I’m going to reserve my judgement here.
I’m not hot or cold on the guy.
Looking forward to seeing him play.
I like his balance but also his left hand helps to block right handed shooters. I expect him to be polished 2 way since he had 4 years at Indiana where Mike Woodson was a good coach to Steve Kerr with GSW. Soon to be 26 he is entering prime on a rookie scale. If he can’t be dominant value now he never will be.
Dennis Rodman was undersized
I am so happy we didn’t trade the 2026 pick or any other firsts. To me this was a perfect deadline. People need to stop with the 7’ or bust crap. Most seven footers don’t move like this. So there’s a give and take. The options this gives darko are insane. I want to see some truly huge line ups. Allow darko to throw tons of different looks at the opponent. This is also the possible mamu replacement if he demands 5-10 million next year and the raps don’t want to pay it. No he can’t shoot like mamu. Let’s see a massive lineup. Scottie pg, Ingram sg, CMB sf, mamu PF and tjd centre (or yak) all of these players have very high basketball IQ as well. I couldn’t have been more excited when I saw we got TJD. A perfect pick up, especially at this bargain of a salary
This pick up is redundant. Where is Ulrich Chomche?
Rob, start a film channel.
That’s for this live .. May it continue to catch a little heat.
Excited for TJD
TJD is an asset in the pick and roll game on offense with soft hands. and runs the court well. He is a quick jumper, and moves his feet, which helps make him a good rebounder and help defender. He checks at least 10 of the boxes on your list and is a good teammate, well liked by all at GS.
I feel like visions 6'9 was Bobby's philosophy all along. Seems like we have a type….Scottie, Mogbo, CMB, now TJD. All similar players.
