After getting his legs underneath him, the Memphis Grizzlies have recalled second-year forward GG Jackson II<\/a> from the Memphis Hustle, their G League affiliate. Across three standout performances, Jackson II averaged 20.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 1.0 steal per game for the Hustle, shooting 36.8 percent from three. The presumption is that Jackson will make his season debut on Monday, when the Grizzlies take on the Minnesota Timberwolves.<\/p>\n

As he tallied 27.0 minutes per game during his G League assignment<\/a>, he may not have to worry about a playing time restriction when he returns. Furthermore, several Grizzlies players remain out<\/a>, including Vince Williams Jr.<\/a> and Marcus Smart<\/a>. However, there should be more clarification about his role when Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins has the chance to address the media.<\/p>\n
