Jaren Jackson Jr. · The 21-point scoreboard advantage was everything Jaren Jackson Jr. needed to confirm that on November 25, 2024, the Memphis Grizzlies had what it took to keep the Portland Trail Blazers out of reach. From nearly 40 feet away, though, his All-Star floor general had ideas of seeing what said picture looked like from an on-court standpoint. Staying prepared for whatever his “insane” teammate — as Jackson playfully called him afterwards — could envision, Jackson puts the duo’s almost telekinetic six-season chemistry on showcase, hustling towards the rim immediately after a teammate’s well-timed back screen. Concentrating on the rainbow-like dime that miraculously skies too high for Shaedon Sharpe’s 48-inch vertical to reach, yet ends up flawlessly within his grasp, Jackson snags it, powering through a one-handed flush. Smooth in their style, Memphis, for the second-straight night, captured 35+ assists and a wire-to-wire win. Leading the way, Jackson needed only 12 attempts to record a 21-point, six-rebound, one-steal, three-block, two-triple effort, extending a still-going streak of double-digit scoring in every game throughout 2024-25. · State of Mint
