Ignore his worst category (rebounds) and he's worth -3.53.
Bench microwave — 10 points and 1.7 threes with a tidy 80% FT line — and that's the whole kit; two straight seasons stuck under 16 minutes says the role isn't growing. Threes-and-points streamer, nothing else.
Jaden Hardy enters 2026-27 at #382 on our board — Round 32 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 10.0 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 18.2 minutes a night. The value is built on turnovers and threes, with rebounds the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-rebounds builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability is the swing factor — we expect about 51 games, which is priced into his draft value.
GP = expected games this season (availability model + analyst judgment), not last year's total. DRAFT VAL = draft-day value (round/window-paced), used for draft decisions. MPG = projected minutes per game.
