Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

GG Jackson was the 2022 South Carolina Basketball Gatorade Player of the Year and a two-time state champion with Ridge View High School after averaging 22.1 points, 10.9 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks per game. Jackson was a consensus top collegiate prospect for the 2023 recruiting class. However, Jackson reclassified into the 2022 collegiate class, ultimately joining the South Carolina program after initially committing to UNC. Jackson is a Columbia, South Carolina native and represents the youngest player eligible for the 2023 NBA Draft -- still just 18 years old. Jackson averaged 15.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 0.8 blocks per game during his one-and-done campaign at South Carolina. Jackson plays at his own rhythm and has the tools to be an elite self-creator. He was asked to create shots outside of his comfort zone in college, as South Carolina's offense was jumbled. He projects as a more efficient player once comfortable in a well-oiled NBA offense, but Jackson may still be a go-to option when the possession needs a bail out. He's shown an ability to fill different roles on offense -- ballhandler, screener, cutter, post-up -- due to his fluidity, shooting ability and size. Jackson fits the Michael Beasley, Derrick Williams scoring mold. His success as a rookie may depend on whether the coach is comfortable letting Jackson take things into his own hands, or if the desire is for the forward to play within a rigid system. A mix of both might create the right type of environment for Jackson to operate in a sixth-man role, whether it be in 2023 or later down the line.

Pours in 31 points Friday
FMemphis Grizzlies
April 12, 2024
Jackson chipped in 31 points (12-23 FG, 7-13 3Pt, 0-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and three steals across 40 minutes during Friday's 123-120 loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Jackson led Memphis in scoring while putting up an efficient 7-for-13 line from beyond the arc. The seven triples tied his career-high mark, which he initially established March 20 against the Warriors. As has typically been the case for Jackson, his scoring came with little production as a rebounder or distributor, though he did tie his career-best total with three thefts in Friday's defeat.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Historic rookie outing
FMemphis Grizzlies
January 16, 2024
Jackson became the third youngest player in NBA history to post back-to-back games with at least 20 points, joining LeBron James and Kevin Durant.
ANALYSIS
Jackson became the youngest Grizzlies player in franchise history to post a double-digit scoring performance Saturday. The No. 45 pick in the 2023 Draft has compiled just 86 total minutes across eight NBA appearances this season, but Memphis' injury-plagued season comes with the silver lining of a developmental environment for young pieces, including Jackson. The forward has good size and scoring instincts, although it will be interesting to monitor where his shooting efficiency levels out over a larger sample size.
