New NBA fan here. I started getting interested in the NBA this year as my friends and I started a Bball fantasy league. I drafted Javier Morant in the 5th round knowing he was suspended but thought it was good value for the pick+Memphis is my favourite team.

I’m getting destroyed in my pool, when is Javier coming back? Also, the Grizz are currently bottom feeders, is Morant return enough to compensate the lost of Dillon Brooks?

    38-28 to get 41-41 which is probably play in seems like a pretty big ask for this team especially given that there is 9 games before ja comes back.

    Hypothetically, if they went 6-19 by the time Ja comes back (Griz go 3-6 in their next 9), they’d have to go 35-22 (.610) to reach the same 41-41 mark.

      At that point just tank it and get a top pick. Plenty of SF this year and they could use one

        Not a particularly strong class tbh. Not sure which of the projected lottery talents would be a scoring wing with some self creation and decent defensive ability that the Grizzlies are missing

        They need a 7 foot center because Adams will most likely get traded or Clarke who knows

    With two other big pieces missing…sadly, even if Ja was a saint, this season feels all but lost…
