Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. will make his season debut Tuesday against the New Orleans Pelicans after sitting out the first 14 games of the campaign, a source told TNT's Chris Haynes.
Jackson Jr. underwent surgery on June 29 to address a right foot stress fracture. The initial timetable to return was set at four to six months.
The Michigan State product has averaged 15.8 points and 5.1 rebounds in his three-year career.
The Grizzlies currently sit in fifth place in the Western Conference, holding a record of 9-5.
