Swats five shots in win Monday Jackson notched 14 points (6-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and five blocks in 25 minutes during Monday's 119-106 win over the Bulls.

Impact Jackson played just 25 minutes in the victory, as the Grizzlies took control early over an undermanned Bulls team. His offensive production was a little subdued, but he more than made up for it, racking up another five blocked shots. Over the past six games, Jackson is averaging an insane 4.2 blocks per contest, scoring in double-digits in five of those games. The Grizzlies are rolling right now, and Jackson is in the midst of a mini-breakout, much to the delight of his fantasy managers.

Returns to Monday's contest Jackson (calf) has returned to Monday's contest against the Bulls, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.

Impact Jackson briefly went to the locker room after appearing to bang knees with the Bulls' Alfonzo McKinnie, but he quickly returned to the Grizzlies' bench after being diagnosed with a bruised calf. Not long after that, the 6-foot-11 forward was back at the scorer's table. He's expected to garner his usual role for the rest of the contest.

Blocks five shots in win Jackson accumulated 20 points (6-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-10 FT), five rebounds, one assist, five blocks and one steal in 33 minutes during Thursday's 116-108 win over the Timberwolves.

Impact Jackson scored at least 20 points for the fourth time in his last six games and is averaging 18.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.5 blocks and 1.5 steals in 28.3 minutes during those contests. The 6-foot-11 forward also blocked five-plus shots for the fourth time this season. Steven Adams has been sidelined for the past four games due to COVID-19 protocols and then an illness, so when he returns, it might diminish some of Jackson's shot-blocking chances, but Adams' presence shouldn't affect Jackson's offensive production.
