I'm told, however, that the Grizzlies have been exploring potential trade markets for GG Jackson II and Walter Clayton Jr. Which is quite a turn from Memphis' original stance on Clayton.

Drew Hill: GG Jackson is hosting his first annual event here in Memphis. Serving 200 kids with back to school supplies and all sorts of games. GG grew up going to the Boys and Girls club in SC, and now is hosting a Boys and Girls Club event here.

Damichael Cole: GG Jackson says he already has a relationship with Darryn Peterson and AJ Dybantsa. He mentioned he texted Keaton Wagler the other day after the Illinois standout followed him back.
The Grizzlies have upgraded Cedric Coward (low back soreness), GG Jackson (left knee soreness) and Cam Spencer (low back soreness) to available for Monday’s game against Cleveland. Taj Gibson (right foot injury management) and Taylor Hendricks (right thumb sprain) are now doubtful.
The Grizzlies have ruled out Jahmai Mashack (concussion protocol) for Sunday’s game against Milwaukee. Javon Small (left thigh contusion) is also out, Olivier-Maxence Prosper (low back soreness) is available, Taj Gibson (right foot injury management) is probable, Walter Clayton (left hip soreness) is questionable, and Cedric Coward (low back soreness) and GG Jackson (left knee soreness) are doubtful.

GG Jackson doesn't think the Memphis Grizzlies are getting a fair shake from officials compared to other teams' stars such as the Houston Rockets' Kevin Durant. After the Grizzlies lost to the Rockets 119-109 on Friday night, Jackson was critical of calls going in favor of Durant. "KD can jab step and jab step and just jump up and down and your hand is right there," said Jackson, in his third season out of South Carolina. "[You] clearly see on the replay that nobody touched him."

The Rockets went to the line 26 times compared to 18 for Memphis, but Jackson focused on Durant with his comments. He implied that the veteran gets the benefit of calls, while younger players pay the price. "It's unbelievable how the refs can suck up to somebody," Jackson said. "He's the GOAT, so I respect that, but as far as us other guys, we bust our [tails] like he does."
