Ja Morant (rest) starting for Grizzlies in Game 1; De'Anthony Melton back to bench
Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant is in the lineup Saturday in the team's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
What It Means:
Morant got Sunday's regular season finale off due to rest purposes. But in Game 1 of the Western Conference Playoffs, he is back in action and ready to rock. He'll also immediately start, sending De'Anthony Melton back to the bench.
Our models project Morant for 27.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, 8.6 assists and 46.8 FanDuel points across 34.2 minutes of action.
