Luke Kennard Unavailable On Sunday
11 months agoMemphis Grizzlies guard Luke Kennard (knee) isn't available for Sunday's meeting with the Indiana Pacers. The 27-year-old missed Wednesday's win over the Miami Heat because of a thigh issue. But he returned against the Magic on Friday night, finishing with 15 points, six assists, and a steal while shooting 50% from behind the arc. The Grizzlies haven't had Ja Morant (shoulder) and Desmond Bane (ankle), so Kennard has been a pivotal part of the offense. However, without Kennard in the lineup, Jacob Gilyard, averaging 6.6 points, 4.4 assists, and 1.0 steals in 10 starts this season, should fill the void in the rotation. There's also a place in deep league fantasy lineups for Santi Aldama, John Konchar, and Ziaire Williams.
