Jaren Jackson Jr. Goes for 28 as Grizzlies Take Down Timberwolves
Jackson Jr. scored 28 points, grabbed 12 rebounds, and tied a career-high with five 3-pointers as the Grizzlies won their fourth game in five, despite missing star Ja Morant.
- On Wednesday night in Minneapolis, the Memphis Grizzlies beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 116-111, led by Jaren Jackson Jr. with 28 points and 12 rebounds.
- Both teams entered the game shorthanded, as Anthony Edwards missed his third straight game with a right foot injury and Ja Morant was out after a left ankle sprain sustained in Monday's 121-103 win at the Clippers.
- Jackson provided a rare shooting display by matching a career high with five 3-pointers, while Jock Landale added 20 points and 10 rebounds and Santi Aldama grabbed 11 rebounds.
- That result leaves the Grizzlies riding a streak of four wins in five and seven in nine games, despite Minnesota losing for just its second in nine, with Donte DiVincenzo scoring 19 and Rudy Gobert posting 16 points and 16 boards.
- Despite the absences, Minnesota received scoring from Julius Randle with 21 points, Jaylen Wells 17, Cedric Coward 13, and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope 12.
