Just call Bobby Jackson, in his fifth NBA season, Mr. Efficiency.
Known to University of Minnesota fans as a scoring threat during his senior season with the Gophers, then known by those fans as a defensive stopper for two seasons with the Timberwolves, Jackson is doing a little bit of everything for the Sacramento Kings -- scoring, defending and recharging his teammates as a reserve.

"He's so much more of an efficient player,'' Kings coach Rick Adelman said of Jackson's biggest improvement since he moved to California before last season. "He's worked so hard on his shooting, and he's shooting the ball so much better than years before. He's more consistent and he does more things offensively than he did in some of the other (NBA places).''
