GG Jackson on Ja Morant's hops: 'I’ll compare it to when you see Mario jump and there’s that little poof of an air cloud under him'
GG Jackson on Ja Morant's hops: “I’ll compare it to when you see Mario jump and there’s that little poof of an air cloud under him. Swear to God, sometimes you see a little poof of a cloud under Ja. Every day in practice, like the past two training camps I’ve been part of, it’s something new. Like, every single day.”

More on this storyline
To Jenkins, it looked like Eubanks escalated the situation and wanted the referees to address it. Edey simply took matters into his own hands. "Is he bothering you?" Morant recalled Edey asking him after the first scuffle. Less than a minute later, Edey gave Eubanks a bump while jockeying for position on a rebound. Eubanks, appearing to be frustrated, charged up the floor, sped up and bumped into Edey. Eubanks was charged with a flagrant-2 foul and ejected after another scuffle led to a review from officials. That sequence gave the Grizzlies a spark, and they broke open the game in the third quarter of the 125-103 win Saturday night at FedExForum. -via Memphis Commercial Appeal / January 26, 2025

GG Jackson on Victor Wembanyama: “My opinion has drastically changed. As a competitor, we always find ways to hate. I’m pretty sure there are a lot of 18-year-olds saying, ‘I’m better than Cooper Flagg,’ but in reality, it’s like, bro, stop. He’s creating a new wave. I feel like, in the next 20 or 30 years, we’re going to see a couple of 7’5” or 7’3” dudes bringing the ball up the court and doing things like that. -via YouTube / January 28, 2025
Drew Hill: GG Jackson, speaking for his first time since returning to the Grizzlies, says, "Yeah, they forgot about me," when I started to ask him about being a breath of fresh air last year for the team/fan base. I followed up by asking who forgot about him. "A lot of people," he said. "It will be good to put the shock back on their faces." -via Twitter @DrewHill_DM / January 22, 2025
