Justin Jackson gets a second chance after an up-and-down season

As the return from Sacramento from the Harrison Barnes trade, Justin Jackson closed his first stint in Dallas strong to the tune of eight points per game while shooting 37 percent from three on three attempts per night.

There were whispers last summer (however unfounded they were) that Jackson put weight on his slight frame and could be a sleeper to earn a starting spot in the rotation. However, he started the season off the bench and fell out of the rotation after the fourth game of the season. He did have a hot November, where he shot an insane 47% from three, but collapsed the rest of the season.
