Game Preview | Brian Fleurantin

The Game: The center matchup should be especially fun. Jaren Jackson Jr has taken a big step forward and is in line for his second All Star appearance. He’s shooting a career best 51.7 percent from the field and is someone who can take over the offense for extended stretches. With him playing at this level, who knows how far Memphis can go.

Injuries: Bojan Bogdanovic, Cam Thomas, and Ziaire Williams are out. No word yet on the status of Jacky Cui, who seemed to have suffered a serious knee injury two nights ago at Nassau Coliseum. He’s listed as being with the Long Island Nets, not injured. Dariq Whitehead remains on assignment to Long Island. Two ways Jaylen Martin and Tyrese Martin are also in the G League.

For Memphis, Vince Williams, Jr and GG Jackson are out. Zach Edey is doubtful with a left ankle sprain.
