Exciting news for Sixers fans! The team has reportedly signed veteran point guard Reggie Jackson to a one-year deal at the veteran’s minimum. Jackson recently sat down with the media at the team’s practice facility in Camden, NJ to share his thoughts on joining Philadelphia and how he can contribute to the team’s success.

Here are some key takeaways from Jackson’s first media appearance as a Sixer:

Jackson’s Focus on “Enjoying the Process”

Despite not being guaranteed a nightly rotation role, Jackson remains committed to being a valuable asset to the team. He emphasized the importance of staying prepared and supporting his fellow point guards, highlighting the importance of enjoying the journey.

A Powerful Friendship

It’s no secret that Jackson and nine-time All-Star Paul George share a strong bond. George played a pivotal role in Jackson’s career, which led to their reunion in Philadelphia. Jackson praised George’s skills on the court and expressed his excitement about teaming up with his close friend.

Reuniting with Another Old Friend

In addition to George, Jackson’s former teammate Andre Drummond played a part in recruiting him to the Sixers. Their shared history and friendship played a significant role in Jackson’s decision to join the team. The familiarity of playing alongside friends provides a sense of comfort for Jackson in a new environment.

“Mr. October”

Jackson jokingly acknowledged the shared name with the legendary baseball figure, Reggie Jackson. Despite not being named after the baseball icon, Jackson aspires to make his mark in the playoffs and honor the “Mr. October” legacy.

Jackson Joins an Illustrious Club in Sixers Lore

As part of the Sixers, Jackson will wear jersey No. 00, adding his name to a select group of players who have donned the unconventional number for the franchise. His choice of number signifies his unique journey and contribution to the team’s legacy.
