Duds from Memphis Grizzlies win vs Pistons

Jaren Jackson Jr. 

Triple J has been playing really good basketball as of late, but it just so happened that tonight was not his night against Detroit.

He went back to his old habits of fouling too much, couldn’t knock down his field goal attempts and turned the ball over way too much. He managed to finish with 12 points and 6 rebounds, but he could not find a rhythm tonight.

Jackson was 2 for 9 from the field tonight, recorded 4 fouls and committed four a team-high 4 turnovers.

Tyus Jones

Jones, like Jaren Jackson, couldn’t find his shot tonight on the road. The veteran back-up finished the game shooting 1 for 6 from the field. He was able to dish out 5 assists and no turnovers, which will add to his league-leading assist-to-turnover ratio.

Jones played more than 16 minutes against Detroit, but it still looks like he’s trying to find his footing in his fourth game back since being in Health & Safety Protocols.
