Bobby Jackson vowed that he will not be returning to the Memphis Grizzlies during an interview with Sports 1140 KHTK, the Sacramento Kings' flagship station.  He stated he will test the market, but Memphis was definitely out of the equation.

Jackson said he was not a fan of Grizzlies' coach Mike Fratello's system and criticized the coach for not knowing how to use him. He added, he understood why former Grizzlies' guard Bonzi Wells had problems with Fratello.
