Notes
Grizzlies – Marc Gasol, Zach Randolph, Mike Conley and Tony Allen are all OUT tonight for Memphis. This makes guys like Courtney Lee and Jeff Green great value since they’ll be tasked with running the offense. Beno Udrih, Kosta Koufos and Jon Leuer are also more than viable punt plays, since they’ll see a big increase in playing time with four of the Grizzlies core players out of action.
Lakers – Tim Hardaway Jr. is questionable tonight. If he were to sit out, Alexey Shved would be a premier value play against a porous Lakers defense.
Jazz – Gordon Hayward is questionable tonight. If he sits out, Trey Burke may draw another start and would become a fine value play even after his poor effort in a start on Tuesday. The Jazz may choose to go with a bigger guard to help deal with the Rockets wing players, so keep an eye on that news as it plays out.
