It&#8217;s clearly seen in the replay that nobody touched him.<\/p><cite>GG Jackson<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nDurant, who led the Rockets with 25 points, 10 assists, and six rebounds, went to the free-throw line seven times. Jackson suggested that more experienced players, like Durant, often receive preferential treatment from referees, while younger players do not.\n\nIn the game, the Rockets had 26 free throws compared to Memphis&#8217; 18.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>It&#8217;s incredible how referees can be so lenient with someone. He is the GOAT, so I respect that, but as for the others, we strive like him.<\/p><cite>GG Jackson<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nJackson&#8217;s frustration could be related to the Grizzlies&#8217; losing streak, who have lost five consecutive games and have only won one in their last 14 games. Jackson, who averages 12 points per game, scored 14 points in the loss against Houston.\n\nDuring the meeting, Jackson recounted that Rockets player Tari Eason told him that he wasn&#8217;t Durant.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>On this court, I&#8217;m the closest to him.<\/p><cite>GG Jackson<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GG Jackson Questions the Refereeing in the Game Against the Rockets In a game where the Memphis Grizzlies fell to the Houston Rockets with a score of 119-109, GG Jackson expressed his discontent with the refereeing decisions, especially those that favored Kevin Durant.
