The Los Angeles native averaged 23.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.5 steals in wins at No. 25 Alabama and against Mississippi State. He converted 71.4 percent (15-of-21) of his field goal attempts and 60 percent (3-of-5) of his 3-pointers on the week.

Jackson scored a game-high 28 points in the victory over the Crimson Tide. The 28 points were the most by an Aggie in a win over a ranked team since Khris Middleton had 28 versus No. 15 Missouri on Jan. 15, 2011, and the most against a ranked team since Danuel House had 32 against No. 16 Kentucky in the 2016 SEC Tournament Championship Game.

He added 18 points and four steals against Mississippi State. Jackson has scored in double figures in the last 13 games.

Jackson and the Aggies are back in action Thursday as they square off against Florida at 11 a.m. in the second round of the SEC Tournament.
