Jackson’s coaching regret: eager to help players unleash their potential, such as Laettner, who did not convert his talents in the NBA

November 17th Jackson Jackson recently talked about some regrets in his coaching career on the Dan Patrick Show.

Zen Master said: "There are many players in the league who will make you say, 'This guy is so good.' I think Christian Laettner (the only college student in Dream One) is one of those players who has never fully demonstrated his strength in the NBA. I am eager to coach this kind of talent and leadership, but have not yet A player who can blossom in the professional arena."

Laettner is considered by many media to be one of the most outstanding players in the history of NCAA basketball. He helped Duke University win the NCAA championship twice. He was selected for the Dream Team to play in the Olympics in college, but his NBA career failed to fully realize his talent. In his 13-year NBA career, he averaged 12.8 points, 6.7 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.1 steals per game, and was selected to the All-Star once.

O'Neal also talked about Laettner. He said: "He completely defeated me in college. I didn't know him at all when we played against each other in the first year, but he was completely suppressed by him. Although I could barely compete in the second year, the team still lost."
