Former Aggie basketball player drops a triple double in blowout win
After a few bad weeks of Aggies basketball, it was a great palate cleanser to see Quenton Jackson go off in the NBA G League on Friday. The heart and soul of Buzz Williams 2022 recently signed a two-way contract with the Washington Wizards showed why that contract was well worth it.
Jackson was on fire going for 25 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists in a 140 – 91 beatdown of the Texas Legends. He also put himself in the Capital City Go-Go team record books for locking in just the fourth triple-double in team history.
Many Aggie fans are convinced that Jackson didn’t get the deserved ending to his senior season due to them being left out of the NCAA tournament, but with now him flourishing in the G-League and signing a two-way contract, it feels like this is just the beginning of a highly productive pro career.
BIG NIGHT 🔥 for Quenton Jackson!

Jabari stating the obvious; Give this man a contract!
On the bright side Wizards Fans, Quenton Jackson went OFF tonight for 25/10/10 with a +/- of +21. Wizards need to give him a long term contract this off-season and a shot in the rotation next year #DCAboveAll https://t.co/vl2LsnaBeM
