Jackson has been placed on the season-ending injury list with a ruptured right Achilles.
Jackson had been a consistent presence on the floor for Long Island this season, racking up 8.3 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals over 20.1 minutes per game in his 14 appearances for Long Island. Unfortunately, his run with the team in 2021-22 will come to an end and he will be facing a lengthy recovery.

Justin Jackson: Out with Achilles issue
Rotowire
Jackson did not play Monday against Westchester due to an Achilles injury.
Jackson suffered a season-ending injury last January and it's possible his current Achilles issue is the same problem that ended his 2018-19 campaign. It's unclear exactly when Jackson will be able to rejoin the action.
Jackson (undisclosed) suffered a season-ending injury earlier this week.
Jackson had missed much of the season with a foot injury, so the anonymity of the announcement could suggest he may have re-injured it. While a hope for a possible update seems remote, the end result is that the 23-year-old is out for the year.

Justin Jackson: Unable to play Friday
Rotowire
Jackson (undisclosed) did not play in Friday's loss to the Bayhawks.
Jackson played just nine minutes in Thursday's loss to Raptors 905, so it's quite possible the forward succumbed to an injury prior to Friday. Jackson has repeatedly missed time throughout the season due to a foot injury, with the last such example keeping him out of seven games in early December.

Justin Jackson: Scores six after seven-game absence
Rotowire
Jackson (foot) scored six points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), to go along with three rebounds in the win Wednesday over the Red Claws.
Jackson had missed the previous seven games with a foot contusion, but managed to take the court Wednesday in time for the G League Showcase. Jackson had been starting at power forward prior to the injury, but was only averaging 19 minutes over the course of eight games. With the emergence of BJ Johnson, and more importantly, center Amile Jefferson, it seems unlikely Jackson will immediately be reasserted into the starting lineup should he prove to be completely healthy.

Rotowire
Jackson (undisclosed) did not play in Friday's 119-95 win over Grand Rapids Drive.
