Former Michigan State basketball one-and-done star Jaren Jackson Jr. will make his 2020-21 NBA season debut tonight for the Memphis Grizzlies after missing nearly the entire season with an injury sustained last season in the NBA bubble. The Grizzlies face the Los Angeles Clippers as they look to continue their playoff push.

Funny enough, his absence gave another Spartan a huge opportunity. Xavier Tillman has spent time in the starting lineup while JJJ recovered, and he has made the most of that opportunity, recording his first career double double on Monday.
