Jaren Jackson Jr., a key player for the Memphis Grizzlies, suffered a low-grade hamstring strain during the team's first practice of the season but is expected to be ready for the regular-season opener on October 23. Coach Taylor Jenkins described the MRI results as 'good news' and emphasized a cautious approach during the preseason to ensure Jackson's full recovery. Last season, the Grizzlies were significantly impacted by injuries, which contributed to a disappointing 27-win season, missing key players like Ja Morant and Steven Adams. The team is optimistic about returning to form with the addition of rookie Zach Edey and maintaining health throughout the season. Other players, such as GG Jackson and Vince Williams Jr., remain sidelined with their own injuries. Fans and the team are hopeful for a stronger performance this year if the roster stays healthy.
