Overall, Alistar sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Jax. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN.

This may signal that Jax does not provide cover for him to deal more damage or that his support also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Alistar is played together with Jax on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Jax.
Additionally, when Alistar plays with Jax on the same side, he typically receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Receiving not as much damage could mean that Jax does a decent job of protecting Alistar in team fights.
