Conley contributed 20 points (7-13 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five assists, four rebounds, and one steal in 29 minutes during the Grizzlies' 109-90 victory versus the Nets on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Conley stepped up in the Grizzlies' first game minus Marc Gasol (foot), and the speedy 28-year-old soon-to-be free agent point guard will likely be forced to take even more initiative on offense going forward. As a result, he could very well improve his per game averages and enjoy a modest boost in production--though his already shaky field goal percentage (41 percent) might remain fairly low on most nights thanks to the fact that he will be receiving more attention than normal from opposing defenses.
