After the game the Sparks announced Jackson enjoyed a career-high performance with 30 points, seven rebounds, four 3-pointers made on 11-17 shooting from the field.
The result was a continued strong return for Jackson, who missed several games earlier this season due to injury. The Sparks are now 2-2 in the Commissioner's Cup, which has them ranked 5th in the Western Conference.
The Sparks have surprised many fans (and perhaps even themselves) after suffering a lot of heavy losses last season. The addition of Kelsey Plum has reenergized a franchise that seemed to be struggling. Plum is currently averaging 21.8 points, 5.4 assists and 1.9 steals per game, and there's no reason to believe those numbers won't continue to rise.
