A special graduation day approaching for Mavericks’ forward Justin Jackson

Posted May 10, 2019
This weekend, Mavericks’ forward Justin Jackson will do something he promised his family he would do, no matter how long it took. Jackson will graduate from the University of North Carolina with two of his good friends from the UNC basketball team, Kenny Williams and Luke Maye, who provided the stimulus for Jackson to finish his degree as soon as possible.
