GG Jackson posted 14 points, six rebounds, four assists, three steals, one block and three triples against 4-of-11 shooting and 3-of-4 from the line in 22 minutes off the bench Friday, November 13, when Memphis beat New Orleans 142-111.
The line represents season highs in rebounds, assists, steals and minutes for the second-year forward, who had averaged 6.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 15.5 minutes over his previous 10 games. The 38.2 fantasy points sit well above his 11.7 over that span, and the extra playing time suggests the Grizzlies trust him in extended run. In nine-category leagues he offers threes, steals and blocks when he plays. In points leagues he projects to 14.4 fantasy points per game with consistent minutes.

GG Jackson
Jackson's 22 minutes marked his highest total of the season, coming in a blowout win where Memphis had the luxury of spreading playing time. His usage rate sits at 21.2 per cent on 48.3 per cent true shooting this season, and he converted that opportunity into a well-rounded stat line that included defensive contributions. The three steals and one block matched what he had managed in total over his previous 10 games combined.
Memphis has one game left this week, Friday against an opponent yet to be confirmed. Jackson remains a rotation forward averaging 16.1 minutes over 11 games this season, but the expanded role in a comfortable win shows what he can do when given the chance. Managers in deep leagues can stream him for the final game of the week, particularly in formats that reward defensive stats and threes.
What to do
• Stream Jackson in deep leagues for Friday's game if you need threes, steals and blocks.
• Monitor his minutes over the next few games to see whether the 22-minute outing leads to a larger role.
• Keep Jackson on your watchlist in 12-team leagues given his ability to contribute across multiple categories when he plays.
