Jawai was great in his first season with Cairns when he averaged 17 & 9 and was MVP of the All-Star game as a rookie. He then spent two years in the NBA followed by 5 years in Europe.
When he came back to the NBL in 2015 with Perth after those 7 years away he wasn't the same player injuries and fitness concerns had caught up with him he had lost his explosiveness and has only been capable of playing limited minutes since.
Jawai has been stealing money for years now. He has extended his career as the Taipans don't pay for his salary as its funded through an indigenous scheme so at least he's free or partially free.
His size is freakish and makes him a handful but you have to use him in a very specific role. Obviously he's very immobile and isn't a play-maker at all. I wouldn't say he misses more than he makes though - career FG of 56% in the NBL.
Playing under Gleeson he’d still be good, he’d know how to use his strengths. He’s still got lots to offer but he has to have a defensive system that works for him.
