Goes for 21 in loss to Spurs Jackson finished with 21 points (8-13 FG, 2-5 3PT, 3-3 FT, three rebounds, two steals and two blocks in Sunday's loss to the Spurs.

Impact After going for 33 points in Friday's opener against Portland, Jackson came back down to earth Sunday, though he was still efficient in his 35 minutes of action. The second-year forward is a poor rebounder for his size, but he makes up for it with contributions in the defensive categories, and from beyond the arc.

Pours in 33 points, six treys Jackson produced 33 points (10-22 FG, 6-15 3Pt, 7-9 FT), three rebounds, one steal and one block in 43 minutes during Friday's 140-135 overtime loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Jackson was on fire from beyond the arc and also showed off impressive handles while attacking the basket. The 20-year-old big man is a prolific outside shooter with elite defensive potential. He did commit five fouls but that didn't stop him from logging heavy minutes. Apart from his tendency to get into foul trouble, Jackson's rebounding numbers leave plenty to be desired. Nevertheless, he remains a very compelling option for fantasy purposes, thanks in no small part to the team's fast-paced style of play.
