Top 25 Players Under 25: #25 Al Jefferson


Ok, I fucked this up the first time around, but we fixed it, and we are restarting...

#25 Al Jefferson

Born: January 4, 1985


Jefferson has struggled with injury problems, but you can't deny what he has already done in his career. In high school he was a phenom averaging 42.6 points, 18 rebounds, and 7 blocks per game. So, he skipped college and was drafted 15th overall by the Celtics. He had a solid rookie season averaging 6.7 points and 4.4 rebounds in 14.8 minutes. What makes Jefferson so special is how he keeps improving (when healthy), because the very next season he increased his stats in every way. Now where is it more evident then looking at his PPG, 6.7, 7.9, 16, 21, 23.1. Very impressive, but once again his downfall is his injury problems, and you have to be concerned what he is going to be able to do the rest of his career. Yet, in the end you can't deny that he deserves to be on this list.
