GG Jackson II left the Memphis Grizzlies’ 129-110 win over Brooklyn on Saturday, November 14, with a left foot injury, and coach Tuomas Iisalo described it afterward as a “relatively serious foot injury.”

The Grizzlies ruled Jackson out for the rest of the game. Iisalo said further testing was planned. Memphis had not announced a diagnosis or a return timetable in the postgame update.

Three points before leaving

Jackson made his only shot, a three-pointer, in 2 minutes and 52 seconds off the bench at FedExForum. He did not return after the first quarter.

Memphis still won for the second time in two nights, improving to 9-4. Taylor Hendricks scored a career-high 22 points and Cedric Coward had 23 points and 12 rebounds.

Testing comes next

Iisalo’s description is an assessment of the injury, not a confirmed diagnosis or a recovery schedule. The team announcement established only that Jackson would not return against Brooklyn.

The Grizzlies next visit Washington on Monday, November 16. Neither the rest-of-game announcement nor the coach’s postgame comments establish Jackson’s official status for that game.
