The 2022-23 Defensive Player of the Year winner delivered 28 points and 12 rebounds, anchoring Memphis’ balanced attack despite missing Ja Morant due to an ankle sprain.

Jock Landale helped Jackson Jr. contributing 20 points and 10 rebounds, including a career-high four three-pointers that proved crucial in the closing moments.

The Grizzlies have now won nine of their last 12 games. They are showing what happens when you don’t give up, even if your star player is out.
