Jaylen Wells

Miraculously the second rookie from his class to amass the 100-point plateau despite being selected No. 43 overall, Jaylen Wells has confirmed one thing in 2024-25: there might’ve been a delay on NBA Draft night, but that’s where the wait stopped. Veteran-esque in rising to the occasion of his first-ever regular-season showcase, Wells, 25 seconds into his check-in, takes advantage of the Utah Jazz’s focus on his All-NBA teammate, cashing in on a spot-up 3-pointer. A standout sniper during the preseason exhibitions, Wells immediately picked up where he left off, pouring in a six-points-in-six-minutes sequence during the game’s opening quarter. Such plays proved vital in the Memphis Grizzlies’ intriguing two-point victory on October 28, 2024, as they won both the 3-point and second-unit scoring battle. In his role, Wells contributed a six-point, one-assist, one-steal, two-triple tally, alongside a +10 plus-minus in a bench-leading 23 minutes.
