LAWRENCE, Kan. — Josh Jackson has been hearing people talk about his herky-jerky jump shot for years, ever since he was a hot young prospect with an elite combination of size, athleticism and natural scoring ability.

“I remember giving him a lot of crap this summer about him not being able to shoot,” said sophomore guard Devonte Graham, who has one of the sweetest strokes in college basketball.
