  • In the first two games Nembhard was the first guard subbed out, then came back to run the bench. In this game Haliburton came out first and Quenton Jackson came in early. Haliburton still played 31 minutes. at 9:28
  • Host's view of Quenton Jackson: his offense is 'closer to bad than good' but his defense has been great. He deserves his minutes, especially with Sheppard out, and the team trusts him with regular rotation minutes. at 10:02
  • Quenton Jackson had 4 free-throw attempts, the most of any bench player (Siakam 6, Haliburton 5). He made only one shot, a tip-out and transition layup. at 26:59
  • The host thinks the Bucks game could feature the usual starters with Huff in place of Zubac, and a bench of Quenton Jackson, Oubre, Toppin, Nance and Walker plus the two-way players. at 28:15

  The Pacers host said Indiana's defense showed no force, physicality or resistance, and Dallas scored 77 in the first half. The Pacers cut the lead to 13, which the host partly credited to Flagg's absence. Two-way player Jalen Slawson and bench guard Quenton Jackson played well.

  Carlisle: "The hero of the game was Quenton Jackson, who came in & immediately there was a four-point swing in the second half. And then he earned his way into crunch time. "That's what we need. We need guys playing their hearts out. Anything else isn't going to get us there."

  • Host frames the current guard roles: Nembhard is effectively the backup point guard and Quenton Jackson is playing backup two, not filling in for McConnell at the one. at 20:38
  • Quenton Jackson had a poor first half: five minutes, missed his only shot, and the Pacers reportedly lost his minutes by seven. When he and Larry Nance Jr played together, the bench had no offensive punch and the defense was poor. at 18:27
  • In the second half Quenton Jackson was a defensive spark. He had two of his three total steals then (including one from Jordan Poole, which he took the other way), three rebounds, and made both shots, both in transition. He also grabbed the offensive rebound that basically sealed the game and made the free throws after it. at 19:41
  • Jackson and Toppin each played 10 bench minutes and no other reserve played more than six. The surrounding context suggests this was the second half, but that is not stated explicitly. at 19:31
  • Minutes that would have gone to Jarace Walker and Ben Sheppard went to Quenton Jackson instead. at 27:24

  Quenton Jackson played some two-guard. He went 3-for-3 inside the arc for what the host believes was a preseason-best nine points. The host thinks he should be the depth point guard but needs to make jumpers.
