Jaren Jackson Jr. Stats

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (foot) is expected to miss a significant amount of time to begin the season. The 22-year-old underwent surgery in June to repair a stress fracture in his right foot. However, according to Dr. Kenneth Jung, a foot and ankle specialist, Jackson should be 100% after completing rehab. The No. 4 overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft played a career-high 78 games in 2021 after playing 58 or less throughout his previous three seasons, including suiting up for only 11 contests in 2020-21 due to a knee injury. Unquestionably, Jackson has plenty of talent. But his inability to remain healthy will cause his fantasy stock to plummet heading into October. Nevertheless, with Memphis anticipated to be without Jackson for a while, Brandon Clarke may be the primary beneficiary, whether as a starter or off the bench.

Memphis Grizzlies center Jaren Jackson Jr. (thigh) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Jackson is dealing with right thigh soreness. He played through the injury on Wednesday and compiled nine points, five boards, five assists, two blocks and one steal over 25 minutes. Steven Adams (calf) is also doubtful for Friday's game. If both players indeed wind up sitting, we should see a lot of minutes for Xavier Tillman Sr. and Brandon Clarke. Both players would be worthy streamers on Friday, with Clarke being the more enticing option.
