Jaren Jackson Jr. News, Rumors, Updates - Memphis Grizzlies

Expected to be available Thursday Jackson (hip) will go through his usual pre-game routine and is expected to be available against the Bulls on Thursday, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Jackson has missed the last two games due to right hip soreness, and he will be a game-time call for the matchup against Chicago. All signs point to him being expected to play if he goes through his pre-game routine unscathed. Jackson has scored at least 20 points in each of his previous five appearances.

Questionable for Thursday Jackson (hip) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Bulls.

Impact Jackson has missed the past two games for Memphis, which has resulted in Trey Jemison moving into the starting lineup and more minutes falling to GG Jackson. It'll be more of the same if he's out again Thursday, but we'll have a better idea of his status based on his activity level at shootaround.

Officially ruled out Jackson (hip) won't play in Tuesday's game versus the Knicks.

Impact Jackson will miss his second straight contest Tuesday after being downgraded from doubtful to out with right hip soreness. His next chance to suit up is Thursday's matchup with Chicago.

FEBRUARY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to play Tuesday Jackson (hip) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Jackson was unavailable for Sunday's loss to the Celtics, and he'll likely be forced to miss a second consecutive game Tuesday. The Grizzlies have a lengthy injury report once again, so GG Jackson and Matthew Hurt could see additional playing time against New York.

Won't go vs. Celtics Jackson has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Boston due to right hip soreness.

Impact It's unclear as to when Jackson picked up the injury, but the Grizzlies will sit him down for Sunday's action. With Xavier Tillman (knee) tagged as doubtful, look for Santi Aldama, Trey Jemison and Matthew Hurt to shoulder most of the workload at center.

Carries offensive load in loss Jackson accumulated 27 points (8-21 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 9-11 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and two steals over 31 minutes during Friday's 121-101 loss to the Warriors.

Impact Jackson led Memphis in scoring in the contest, as no other player on the team logged more than 16 points. The talented forward didn't shoot well, however, and he's now converted fewer than half of his field-goal attempts in six straight contests. With Ja Morant (shoulder) playing only nine games this season, Jackson has been asked to take on a bigger offensive load, and he's consequently producing a career-best 22.1 points per contest, though his field-goal rate is currently about six percent lower than it was last year.

Strikes for 25 against Cavs Jackson had 25 points (10-23 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, five assists, three blocks and one steal in 34 minutes during Thursday's 108-101 loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact The 24-year-old forward continued a scoring surge that has seen him deliver 25 or more points in six of the last eight games. Jackson's averaging 25.8 points, 5.0 boards, 3.4 assists, 1.5 steals, 1.3 threes and 1.0 blocks over that stretch, and given the patchwork roster around him, his usage should remain sky high until the Grizzlies get significantly healthier.

Balanced outing as top scorer Jackson racked up 25 points (7-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 11-12 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals in 32 minutes during Sunday's 116-110 loss to the Pacers.

Impact Jackson led all players in Sunday's contest in scoring and free throws made while adding a handful of rebounds and a team-best pair of steals in a well-rounded performance. Jackson has finished with 25 or more points in 15 games this season, including in five of his last six contests.

Career-high six steals Monday Jackson supplied 27 points (12-22 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-3 FT), four rebounds, five assists, one block and six steals in 32 minutes during Monday's 108-100 victory over the Raptors.

Impact The 24-year-old forward continues to thrive as the lead dog for the injury-depleted Grizzlies, setting a new personal best in steals during Monday's win. Jackson has scored more than 20 points in seven of his last eight games, averaging 26.4 points, 5.9 boards, 3.0 assists, 2.8 threes, 1.6 steals and 1.5 blocks over that stretch, and with Ja Morant (shoulder), Desmond Bane (ankle), Marcus Smart (finger) and others all sidelined, his usage doesn't figure to shrink any time soon.

Strong from deep as top scorer Jackson racked up 36 points (15-23 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-5 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 27 minutes during Thursday's 118-103 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Jackson led all players in Thursday's contest in scoring while connecting on a trio of threes and hauling in a trio of rebounds in a losing effort. Jackson has connected on three or more threes in 11 games this year, finishing with 35 or more points in four contests.

Poor shooting display Monday Jackson amassed 18 points (4-20 FG, 3-14 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and four steals in 33 minutes during Monday's 116-107 victory over the Warriors.

Impact Jackson has been a reliable scoring weapon for the Grizzlies this season and is enjoying a career-best season on the offensive side of the ball, especially now that the Grizzlies are seriously depleted due to the absences of Ja Morant (shoulder), Marcus Smart (finger) and Desmond Bane (ankle), among others. However, the increased role on offense has also resulted in a decrease in his efficiency numbers, though the drop is not big enough to significantly impact his fantasy appeal. Jackson is averaging 22.0 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.3 blocks and 1.5 assists per game in January, though he's only shooting 39.6 percent from the field.
