With 15 rebounds in a single game, the former Clippers second-round pick’s performance in the G-League was a highlight?

In a previous NBA Development League game, the San Diego Clippers, the Los Angeles Clippers' affiliate team in the NBA Development League, defeated the Portland Trail Blazers' affiliate team in the NBA Development League, the San Diego Clippers, 129-118. After this game, the San Diego Clippers' record improved to 3 wins and 2 losses; while the Tear City Mix's record dropped to 3 wins and 2 losses.

In this game, the San Diego Clippers' starting point guard Jason Preston played some unusual statistics. Preston played 36 minutes, making 9 of 16 shots and 0 of 2 from beyond the three-point line. He had a double-double of 18 points, 15 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals. He also had 4 turnovers and 1 foul. His plus-minus reached a game-high +21. Preston still showed his comprehensive personal abilities on the offensive end. He has good breakthrough and finishing abilities, and he also maintains high stability in mid-range shooting. Not only that, Preston can also play a certain role in passing and organization. It is worth mentioning that Preston's performance in rebounding in the front and backcourt is phenomenal. The 15 rebounds tied Preston's personal single-game rebound high in the NBA Development League.

Preston was born in August 1999. He is 26 years old, 191cm tall and weighs 81kg. He is a backcourt player from Ohio University selected by the Clippers with the 33rd overall pick in the second round of the 2021 NBA Draft. At the beginning of last season, Preston stayed with the Jazz as a two-way contract player. However, in an NBA Development League game last November when he represented the Salt Lake City Stars, an affiliate of the Jazz, against the South Bay Lakers, an affiliate of the Los Angeles Lakers, Preston suffered a major injury to his left calf, and the Jazz had to waive Preston. This summer, the Clippers signed Preston back to a training camp contract. He also represented the team in preseason games, but he was ultimately waived by the team before the start of the regular season and joined the San Diego Clippers.

So far this season, Preston has averaged 32.8 minutes per game in the first 5 NBA Development League games, averaging 11.8 points, 8.2 rebounds, 6 assists and 1.4 steals per game, as well as 3.2 turnovers and 1.8 fouls. He shot 40% from the field, 13.3% from the three-point range, and 71.4% from the free throw line. Preston's overall performance this season is actually quite good. He can still play a role in organization and connection on the offensive end. His role in rebound protection is also quite good. He also has good personal defensive abilities on the defensive end. It's just that his three-point shooting rate is indeed too poor, to the point of irritating the eyes, which also affects his effectiveness on the court. I don’t know if Preston can maintain his advantages in the next game and improve his offensive efficiency and three-point shooting rate to a higher level.
