Fans reacted as former NBA star Jamal Crawford's son, JJ Crawford, representing his dad's team, Seattle Rotary Rebels, at the EYBL Session II in Memphis, made his presence felt.
Although the Rebels fell 73-58 to Team United on Saturday, JJ's performance was a major topic of discussion. His smooth shooting and playmaking stood out to catch the attention of SLAM HS, which shared a highlight video of his performance on Instagram.
JJ is seen picking up passes from his teammates and finishing them with 3-pointers and 2-pointers and also making plays himself. The video also captured his dad on the sidelines, belting out instructions as the game went on.
Trending
As expected, Slam HS's post has elicited reactions from fans, some of whom were impressed with his performance, while others couldn't resist bringing his dad into the discussion:
"He shoots like his paw 🔥," one said.
"JamaL Crawford's son, this is too adorabLe! 🔥," another wrote.
"Give him dad's handles and 6th man ability and dude is gonna be a solid player!," said one.
Some fans, though, more focused on his performance:
“that boy like that 🔥,” one said.
"🙌yeah young dawg get buckets," said another.
"🔥🔥🔥🔥 they had to double him," another wrote.
JJ Crawford ended the game with 16 points, two rebounds and three assists. He also put up an impressive performance in the final game of the session on Sunday, delivering 14 points and three assists in a 68-55 victory over AZ Unity.
JJ Crawford received D1 offers even before his freshman year
NBA star Jamal Crawford's son, JJ Crawford, is attracting D1 offers even as an eighth grader. He will kickstart his high school basketball career next season, but it appears that college programs like the Rutgers, Montana Grizzles and Missouri aren't waiting around until then.
In fact, JJ Crawford picked up his first college offer in October 2023, while he was in middle school. That was followed by Missouri and Rutgers the next year in July and October, respectively.
JJ has four years of high school basketball to play, so it's safe to conclude that he isn't thinking about college basketball yet. In fact, considering his level of talent, it's expected that more offers will come as the years roll by.
