Due to injuries, the Memphis Grizzlies have played their long players more frequently. Mike Conley’s heel issues have opened up time for Andrew Harrison and two-way player Kobi Simmons. Chandler Parsons’ knee troubles give James Ennis more run with the team. With Brandan Wright’s persistent health problems, young big man Deyonta Davis has been given a lot of time.
From the looks of it, he should continue seeing valuable minutes.
Brandan Wright hasn’t been able to stay healthy the past three years. Right now, Davis and Wright offer just about the same skills. Both players are rim-running center who are threats for lobs and can protect the rim.
