Vince Williams returning to Memphis bench Tuesday
Memphis Grizzlies guard Vince Williams is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
What It Means:
Williams started the past six games while Marcus Smart was sidelined with a foot injury. The Grizzlies are expected to limit Smart's minutes in his first game back, so Williams should see extended playing time off the bench. He averaged 31.0 minutes as a starter.
Williams has a $4,900 salary on Tuesday and numberFire's models project him for 19.9 FanDuel points over 26.7 minutes. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Grizzlies’ implied total (112.5) is second-worst on the Main slate out of 14 teams.
