Jackson was drafted by the Dallas Mavericks with the fourth overall pick of the 1992 NBA Draft after his junior season at OSU.

Jackson was waived by the Phoenix Suns at the beginning of March 2006 after spending nearly two months on the bench without playing any minutes and signed with the Lakers shortly thereafter.

Jackson has been with 12 different teams over his 14 NBA seasons.
