Desmond Bane Questionable With Illness
5 months agoMemphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets due to an illness. Bane has been the 6-16 Grizzlies' engine on offense with 24.8 points, 5.3 assists, and 3.3 three-pointers per game in the absence of Ja Morant (suspension) this season, so the 25-year-old would leave behind big shoes to fill if he misses his first game of the year on Wednesday. With Marcus Smart (ankle) and Luke Kennard (knee) still on the shelf, Derrick Rose, Vince Williams Jr., and John Konchar would be summoned to occupy more playing time if Bane is out against the Rockets. After a 41-point performance on Monday, Jaren Jackson Jr. would take on all the playmaking duties he can handle in this case.
