Jaren Jackson Jr. Stats

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. put up 22 points in 26 minutes during Monday's blowout win over Philly, shooting 8-for-17 from the field and 5-for-6 at the charity stripe. He had an off night from downtown with a 1-for-6 record but did plenty of work in other areas, registering four rebounds and two assists with one steal and two blocks. Jackson Jr. missed a game over the weekend, and he was questionable for Monday's contest with knee soreness, but it looks like the injury isn't too bad after all. Getting more rebounds from Jackson Jr. would be nice, but he's on a good scoring tear right now and should continue it against Portland and Sacramento this week. The matchup against the Kings is particularly sweet, as opposing bigs have embarrassed them throughout the season.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Desmond Bane (foot), forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) and center Steven Adams (ankle) are all active and available to play Monday against the Philadelphia 76ers. All three players were listed as questionable, but all went through shootaround without any hiccups. Bane and Adams end up not missing any time with their respective ailments, while Jackson will return after a one-game absence and push Kyle Anderson to the bench.

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) is considered questionable for Monday's meeting with the Sixers. The 22-year-old missed Saturday's win over Houston and it lifted Kyle Anderson into the starting unit. Jackson Jr. had just enjoyed some really good outings, so he's picked up an injury at an awful time. With Steven Adams (ankle) listed doubtful, the Grizzlies could be very short of bodies to tackle Joel Embiid. Xavier Tillman and Killian Tillie are the reserve bigs for the team. They combined for 40 minutes of action on Saturday.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. This is certainly frustrating with the Grizzlies already shorthanded for this matchup. His absence should mean Kyle Anderson moves into the starting five on Saturday. He'd make a logical DFS option given the fact he'll get extended playing time. Santi Aldama could play more as well, but Anderson is the much better option between the two.
