Memphis' Jonas Valanciunas (thigh) questionable on Friday
Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas (thigh) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
What It Means:
Valanciunas is questionable to play in the second game of Memphis' back-to-back after a 24-minute performance on Thursday. Expect Brandon Clarke and Xavier Tillman to play more minutes in an underrated matchup against a Los Angeles' unit ranked 19th in defensive efficiency if Valanciunas is ruled out on Friday.
Valanciunas' current projection includes 15.4 points, 9.9 rebounds, and 1.8 assists.
