• 76ers' Reggie Jackson: Provides spark off bench

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Jackson contributed 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 114-106 loss to the Cavaliers. Jackson has been an inconsistent part of Philadelphia's bench this year, appearing in only five of the team's 11 contests. However, the veteran guard tallied a season-high 27 minutes with Tyrese Maxey (hamstring), Paul George (knee) and Joel Embiid (knee) all out. With Maxey (hamstring) potentially sidelined for a significant period, Jackson could continue to receive increased playing time as a point guard option off the bench.

• Hornets' Reggie Jackson: Dealt to Charlotte

  06/27/2024 • By RotoWire

  Jackson, along with three second-round picks, was traded to the Hornets from the Nuggets on Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. Denver is effectively salary-dumping the veteran guard to Charlotte to create financial flexibility. It's possible the Hornets will attempt to ship Jackson off elsewhere, though he would add a veteran presence to a team looking to transition from rebuilding to being competitive. If he remains with Charlotte, Jackson will compete for backup guard minutes.
