Anderson supplied 19 points (7-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, six assists and a steal across 30 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson didn't pace the Grizzlies in any particular stat, but he delivered a strong effort across the board while making a big impact on both ends of the court. The small forward is having a career-best season in his third year with the Grizzlies and has a decent floor in most formats due to his ability to contribute steadily on both offense and defense on a nightly basis -- even if his scoring figures have been a bit inconsistent of late.

Anderson recorded 18 points (6-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 11 rebounds, three blocks and one assist in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 111-107 loss to the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Wednesday marked Anderson's first double-double since Jan. 1 against the Hornets, where he oddly also posted 18 points and 11 rebounds. Anderson's scoring can be inconsistent, but he can put up big performances when he's feeling it since he's solid in almost every other aspect of the game. In March, he averaged 10.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.9 combined steals-plus-blocks in 26.2 minutes.

Anderson recorded seven points (3-7 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block during 23 minutes in the 120-110 win over Houston on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson's production as of late has been the definition of a rollercoaster. The forward continues to struggle to find consistency and missed every shot from the arc Monday. Thus far this season, he is averaging 12.5 points, 5.7 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 27.2 minutes.

Anderson logged 16 points (6-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four assists, two rebounds, two steals and a blocked shot across 22 minutes in Saturday's 126-110 loss to the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
When your top scorer only posts 16 points, that's usually not an encouraging indicator of success. Such was the case for Memphis, as they lost their second straight game against the Jazz. Anderson's output ebbs and flows, but he's propped up the offense multiple times this season when the rest of his teammates have foundered. The UCLA product is less shot-dependent than some of his counterparts and can be counted on for diverse stat lines with moderate contribution in every category.

Anderson had five points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), five rebounds, six assists and two steals in Friday's loss to the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson didn't do much on the offensive end, but he was an effective distributor and provided his usual boost in rebounds and steals. Since the All-Star break (10 games), Anderson is averaging 9.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 steal and 0.5 blocks in 26.5 minutes.

Anderson totaled 14 points (6-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven assists, five rebounds, three blocks and three steals in a 132-126 victory over the Celtics on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson had a fantastic all-around performance in the Grizzlies' overtime victory. The forward's three blocked shots were a new season high, as he was very effective on both sides of the floor. Anderson does a little bit of everything for fantasy managers and is averaging 12.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.2 steals across 27.3 minutes per game this season.

Anderson had 13 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, one steal and one block in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 89-85 win over Miami.
EDGE Analysis
It was an offensive struggle for both teams Wednesday, as Jimmy Butler (24 points) was the only player for either side to eclipse 13 points. Anderson enter the game shooting 10 percent from deep over his last six games, so the modest 2-for-5 mark is still a solid rebound performance from distance.

Anderson scored 13 points (5-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT) with five rebounds and three assists in a 127-112 victory over the Wizards on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson had a solid game offensively to kick off the second half of the season. The two-way forward had recorded a steal in five consecutive games heading into the All-Star break but failed to do so Wednesday. On the season, Anderson is averaging 13.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.2 steals per game.

Anderson had nine points (3-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, two assists, two blocks and a steal across 26 minutes in Thursday's loss against the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was able to return following a one-game absence but struggled to make an impact offensively. He has now gone five straight games without reaching the 15-point mark after doing so in four straight appearances between Feb. 14 and Feb. 19. Those inconsistencies certainly limit his upside going forward.
