Jaren Jackson Jr. listed as questionable with ankle injury ahead of Grizzlies vs. Mavericks
Memphis (5–11) looks to build momentum after a 137–96 win over the Sacramento Kings on Thursday. Santi Aldama led that effort with 29 points, five rebounds, three assists and two blocks in 28 minutes, shooting 11-of-18 from the field and 5-of-11 from deep.
