Gilyard isn't starting Sunday's game against Boston, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gilyard started the last four games and averaged 8.0 points, 3.3 assists and 8.0 rebounds in 22.8 minutes per game. However, his minutes decreased in each of those matchups, and he'll now head to the bench. Santi Aldama will take his place in the starting lineup against the Celtics.

Gilyard amassed 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-9 3Pt), four rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Friday's 127-121 loss to the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Gilyard took advantage in his first career-start by tallying career-highs across the board. The Grizzlies opted to go small and it paid off for the second-year guard who tied for a team-high in assists. It remains to be seen if he will continue to get more opportunities going forward.

Gilyard will start at point guard in Friday's matchup with the Jazz, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Ziaire Williams (hip) sidelined, the Grizzlies will go with a smaller lineup featuring the 5-foot-9 Gilyard in the backcourt alongside Marcus Smart. The second-year player will be making the first start of his NBA career. The 25-year-old is averaging 1.8 points and 3.0 assists across 11.8 minutes in five games this season.

Gilyard produced three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds, six assists and one steal across 20 minutes during Wednesday's 133-109 loss to the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Gilyard played a total of one minute over the Grizzlies' first four games of the season, but he saw an uptick in playing time during Wednesday's blowout loss, with Derrick Rose (knee) sidelined. Rose is slated to miss at least a week, so Gilyard could continue to see some minutes in the near future. However, the 25-year-old doesn't have much streaming appeal outside of deep leagues.

EDGE Analysis

In 31 regular season appearances with the Hustle, Gilyard averaged 8.3 points, 9.7 assists and 1.9 steals over 30.4 minutes and should fill the No. 3 point guard spot vacated by the release of Kennedy Chandler.
