I was looking at player rankings for my fantasy draft, and noticed several Jalens in a row. So I dug into the data! According to Real GM, all these “Jalens” are currently signed–some probably won’t make regular season rosters though.

Jalen Bridges - Phoenix Suns Jalen Brunson - New York Knicks Jalen Duren - Detroit Pistons Jalen Green - Houston Rockets Jalen Hood-Schifino - Los Angeles Lakers Jalen Johnson - Atlanta Hawks Jalen McDaniels - San Antonio Spurs Jalen Pickett - Denver Nuggets Jalen Slawson - Orlando Magic Jalen Smith - Chicago Bulls Jalen Suggs - Orlando Magic Jalen Williams - Oklahoma City Thunder Jalen Wilson - Brooklyn Nets Jaylen Brown - Boston Celtics Jaylen Clark - Minnesota Timberwolves Jaylen Martin - Brooklyn Nets Jaylen Wells - Memphis Grizzlies Jaylin Williams - Oklahoma City Thunder Jaylon Tyson - Cleveland Cavaliers

That represents 3.13% of all 607 players currently under contract. Three teams have 2 “Jalens”: OKC, Orlando, and Brooklyn.

Sadly, there are zero Juwans in the league.

    How tough? J and D don’t make the same sound.
