Grizzlies' Jaren Jackson Jr. (thigh) out on Thursday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (thigh) has been ruled out of Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

What It Means:

As expected, Jackson has been downgraded from doubtful to out and will not be available to face Cleveland on Thursday. Santi Aldama is expected to start in his place. Our models expect Aldama to play 27.6 minutes against the Cavaliers.

Aldama's Thursday projection includes 9.7 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.7 assists, and 23.9 FanDuel points. His salary is $3,900.
