Phoenix Suns
The Suns are dealing with a few injuries as Landry Shamet is questionable with a foot injury and Deandre Ayton is doubtful with a lower leg injury.
Despite these injuries, the Suns have not missed a beat. Both JaVale McGee and Frank Kaminsky have played valuable minutes at the center position, with Kaminsky having a career day dropping 31 on the Blazers on Wednesday. Keep an eye out for his props as Dan Titus and I detailed in our Fantasy Basketball Forecast.
Over their six-game winning streak, the Suns have an Offensive Rating of 110.8 and a Net Rating of +8.1, per NBA Advanced Stats. They have an incredible 58.6% eFG% over this streak, which is fourth-best in the league over this stretch, per Cleaning the Glass. While there’s room for regression based on their expected eFG%, they are an elite midrange shooting team, and this influences that expected eFG%.
Memphis Grizzlies
While the Grizzlies just saw Steven Adams pop on the injury report as questionable with a sprained ankle, they did see Dillon Brooks return last game to supplement their strong corps of wings. With Brooks’ return, he cut into Desmond Bane’s playing time, and although this may have been due to Bane’s poor shooting night, it’s something to monitor.
Brooks should help the Grizzlies’ struggling defense a bit considering he’s been a defensive plus throughout his career but a lot of work needs to be done overall. The Grizzlies have the league’s worst Defensive Rating (112.4), and they’re allowing opponents to shoot an eFG% of 56.0% (league-worst) and a blistering 39.9% from 3-point range.
