Anderson is questionable for Thursday's game against the Thunder due to back soreness.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson evidently came away with a back issue following his latest matchup Tuesday in Toronto, and his status for Thursday is now in jeopardy. The team should have a better idea of his availability following morning shootaround and pregame warmups.

Anderson will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Raptors, Rob Fischer of Fox Sports Southeast reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Dillon Brooks (hamstring) returning to the lineup after a two-game absence, Anderson will shift to the bench. It's not clear if Brooks will have any sort of limitations due to the sore hamstring, but Anderson should continue to see run as a reserve in the Grizzlies' frontcourt.

Anderson produced 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt), five rebounds, an assist, a steal and a blocked shot across 18 minutes in Monday's 136-102 win over the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson was due for a bounce-back game after several subpar games over the past two weeks. After playing a starting role last season, Anderson has been relegated to the bench in favor of Jaren Jackson, who is finally at 100 percent. Anderson has experienced an inconsistent season thus far, with glaring deficits in field-goal percentage and rebound production.

Anderson produced just four points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two steals and one assist in 18 minutes during Friday's 119-94 loss to Phoenix.

EDGE Analysis

It was a night to forget for Anderson who presented us with another sub-par performance. Coming off what some considered to be a breakout season in 2020-21, Anderson has failed to live up to expectations and thus far, is barely a standard league asset. Unless you are after a cheap source of rebounds and steals, there is very little reason to make him a priority.

Anderson added 12 points (5-8 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists and one block during Monday's overtime win over Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old almost finished with a triple-double, as the forward came close during his best performance of the season thus far. Anderson tied a season high in rebounds and assists while posting double figures offensively for a fourth time. Anderson, who failed to score in Friday's loss to Washington, was coming off his worst outing of the season.

Anderson tallied 16 points (7-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist during Wednesday's 108-106 win over Denver.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson undoubtedly finished with his best game of the season during the two-point victory over the Nuggets. The former UCLA Bruin totaled a new season high offensively in what was his third time in double figures. Across the Grizzlies' first eight games in 2021, Anderson is averaging 8.5 points and 5.6 rebounds per game.
