Chicago Bulls forward Garrett Temple will start on Friday against the Clippers.

Anthony Davis Remains Questionable
Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (Achilles) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's matchup against the Grizzlies.

LeBron James Probable Once Again
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) should be good to go on Friday against the Grizzlies.
