As the Suns continue their road trip, a stop in Detroit on Wednesday to face the Pistons was also a homecoming for rookie Josh Jackson.
Growing up in Michigan, Jackson spent majority of his childhood in Detroit where most of his family and friends still reside. When Jackson hit the court on Wednesday, he knew it was going to be something special.
“I actually told myself before the game that I would try to come out and give it my all and try to help our team get a win,” Jackson said.
Although the Suns couldn’t pull away with the win, Jackson was still able to put on a show for about 80 friends and family that came to watch him play.
