Hey folks, just an outsider looking in to the grizzlies this season.

What’s going on with Jaren so far? Block numbers are way down, and putting up straight duds lately. In my head, I see it as this:

1. He’s a play finisher, so the return of Ja will help him conserve energy on offense to be better defensively

2. The lack of Adams’ presence in the paint reduces weak side block opportunities for Jaren

Which of these factors would you say is the bigger impact on his decreased block numbers in specific this season? Would love to get the insight of y’all diehards
