Word is that he was facing quite a few years in the cage cause of the Arkansas stop.

That he had developed an addiction to Oxycodone or/OxyContin from dealing with all the injuries.

Man that is sad. Team docs should have been all on top of that.

There's a good probability it was suicide.

Yeah that was my first reaction to seeing he died at 29

This photo of the 2022-23 Memphis Grizzlies. All gone now, and only 2 guys remains from the 2023-24 team, and both of those guys were 2-way guys that year that got converted.




The location and date of death for that Grizz group was March 3, 2023 in Denver. Brandon Clarke tears his Achilles during the game, but later that night, Ja flashes the gun on Instagram.
The team never recovered, although Dillon Brooks took all the heat from fans for the loss to the Lakers, having Xavier Tillman take on the Lakers front court with no Adams, Clark, and an injured Ja put the nail in the coffin. Since Denver,Ja doesn't play 5 consecutive games until maybe last season, and Taylor Jenkins is expected to coach a rotating roster of Bane + Jaren + two-ways and 10-day contract guys due to a lot of injuries.

GG Jackson is the longest tenured player on the Grizzlies.

He is 21yo

And starting year 4.

He always seems two years away.
