NBC SportsThe Grizzlies have traded Marcus Smart and a 2025 first-round pick to the Wizards as part of a multi-time trade, per ESPN's Shams Charania.

Acquired from the Celtics as part of a three-team deal that sent Kristaps Porzingis to Boston in the summer of 2023, Smart struggled with injuries throughout his time in Memphis. For the Grizzlies, this trade is an opportunity to get off of his contract, with the team reportedly getting things together financially to sign Jaren Jackson Jr. to a new deal in the offseason. As for the Wizards, Smart is unlikely to fit into their rebuild, so there's no need to expect anything from him fantasy-wise.

NBC SportsJaren Jackson Jr. went off for 37 points, five rebounds, two assists, a blocked shot and seven three-pointers across 33 minutes in Sunday's 132-119 win over the Bucks.

JJJ was phenomenal from beyond the arc in the road win over Milwaukee, delivering his third-highest scoring total of the 2024-25 campaign. His seven triples were the second-highest mark of his career and his most since hitting nine way back on December 13, 2019 when he did it against... the Bucks. Jackson Jr. continues to make his presence felt as a scorer, and his value as a three-point shooter and shot-blocker makes him particularly valuable for fantasy hoops.

NBC SportsJaren Jackson Jr. amassed 21 points (7-of-15 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), four rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one 3-pointer in 31 minutes in Thursday's win over Memphis.

Jackson had to play through some foul trouble on Thursday, but he made the two biggest shots of the night. His free throws with just under nine seconds remaining capped Memphis' rally, giving the Grizzlies their first win over Houston in four meetings.
