3D Analysis of Jalen Green: Athleticism and Decision Making

Published on June 29, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

We analyze in 3D the physical tools of Jalen Green, shooting guard for the Houston Rockets. His vertical explosiveness and changes of pace make him a natural scorer. However, the model reveals certain shortcomings in shot selection and pick-and-roll reading. This study breaks down his movements on the court to understand his real impact in the NBA.

The 3D reconstruction of his jumping mechanics shows a takeoff reaction time of 0.3 seconds, above average. His ability to stop in one step and rise for a jump shot is his main asset. However, the analysis of his drives to the left reveals 12% less efficiency than to the right, a data point that advanced scouting systems mark as an area for improvement in his development.

The dilemma of the 'highlight' versus efficiency 🤔

The 3D model also captures his tendency to go for the acrobatic layup when a simple pass would be more logical. It's as if his brain has a filter that says if the play isn't viral, don't do it. Sometimes he seems to be playing an exhibition game of NBA Jam instead of a real game, but hey, his dunks are a spectacle that fills the stands.
