Jaren Jackson will not return to Monday's contest against the Grizzlies following a knee injury. Jackson left the game to visit the locker room after being hit in the knee during the matchup.
The injury to Jackson occurred during Monday's game against the Grizzlies. In addition to Jackson, Lauri Markkanen also exited the game early, suffering a wrist injury. Ace Bailey recorded a double-double during the matchup, finishing with 17 points, 10 rebounds, three assists, three blocks, and three three-pointers. Bailey has recorded double-doubles in each of Utah's last two games.
Mo Bamba started the second half of Monday's game against the Grizzlies and finished with 14 points, seven rebounds, one assist, and four blocks. If Jackson remains sidelined for the game against the Spurs on Wednesday, Bamba may be in line to start. Jackson's teammate, Ace Bailey, may see increased usage if both Jackson and Markkanen remain unavailable.
Jackson's recent performance included a 24-point game with ten rebounds and three assists in a 120-119 win against the Pelicans. During that game, the Jazz decided to start him at center, which contributed to his rebounding numbers.
