Wuhan Dangdai (NBL) inked 31-year old American 180cm guard Pierre Jackson (college: Baylor, agency: Slash Sports). Jackson played this summer at Cangrejeros de Santurce in Puerto Rican BSN league. The last season he played at Flying Tigers in Chinese CBA where in 10 games he recorded 11.2ppg, 3.1rpg, 5.1apg and 1.9spg.
In 2013 he was drafted by Philadelphia 76ers (NBA) in second round (42nd overall). The former Baylor University standout is in his twelfth (!!!) season in pro basketball.
He is a very experienced player. Jackson has quite traveled the world as his pro career brought him to eight different countries on three different continents (Europe, Asia and of course North America). He has played previously professionally in Croatia (Cedevita), France (ASVEL Lyon Villeurbanne Basket and JL Bourg), Israel (Maccabi Tel Aviv), Turkey (Fenerbahce, Galatasaray and Afyon), NBA (Dallas Mavericks and Detroit Pistons), NBA G League (SLC Stars, Texas Legends and South Bay Lakers), China (Aviators and Royal Fighters) and The Basketball Tournament (Loyalty is Love).
Jackson won Israeli Premier League championship title in 2018. He played also for College of Southern Idaho for one year.
Jackson's game is described as: An energetic PG who loves to create out from the dribble. Jackson can be unstoppable when he goes inside and can be effective at the defensive side too.
