Rookie Report: Trayce Jackson-Davis records near double-double vs. Pelicans

After a dominant college career at the University of Indiana, 2023 first-team All-American Trayce Jackson-Davis landed with the Golden State Warriors in the second round of the 2023 NBA draft.

Through four games, the former Hoosier is quickly proving to be a steal in the second round of the draft. In his second appearance with the Warriors, Jackson-Davis recorded a near double-double effort against the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday evening. 

In his first appearance in the NBA, Jackson-Davis went scoreless in five minutes off the bench against the Sacramento Kings. Monday marked his first points scored of his young career.

On the second leg of a road back-to-back, the Warriors’r rookie played 20 minutes off the bench, scoring 13 points on 5-of-9 shooting from the field. Jackson-Davis added nine boards and four blocks in Golden State’s blowout road win over New Orleans.
