Kennard is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Bucks due to left knee soreness.

EDGE Analysis

After playing 30 minutes against Houston, Kennard is in danger of missing the second leg of Memphis' back-to-back Thursday. With Derrick Rose (ankle) and Scotty Pippen (back) out and Jacob Gilyard in the G League, the Grizzlies could be left very thin at point guard.

Kennard posted 19 points (5-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 121-113 win over the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Getting his second start in six February contests, Kennard tied his season scoring high while draining multiple threes for the 15th straight game. The 27-year-old guard is averaging 13.1 points, 3.7 assists, 3.3 threes and 2.9 boards over that stretch while shooting a blistering 51.5 percent from long distance, but he's also missed five games during that time due to illness and lower-body injuries. With the Grizzlies' backcourt in tatters due to injuries to Ja Morant (shoulder), Marcus Smart (finger), Desmond Bane (ankle) and others, Kennard should continue seeing significant minutes, either as part of the starting five or coming off the bench.

Kennard will be in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup with Houston, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scotty Pippen (back) is on the inactive list for Wednesday's game, so Kennard will replace him in the first unit and will be joined by John Konchar, Vince Williams, Jaren Jackson and Santi Aldama. If you need a cheap source of triples, Kennard could be your guy.

Kennard posted 12 points (4-10 FG, 4-9 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist over 29 minutes during Monday's 96-87 loss to the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard led all players in Monday's contest in threes made while ending as one of five Grizzlies players with a double-digit point total in a losing effort. Kennard has reached double figures off the bench in four straight games and in 18 contests this season while connecting on four or more threes in nine outings.

Kennard provided 11 points (3-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and four assists over 24 minutes during Saturday's 115-106 loss to the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard ended as one of three Grizzlies bench players with 10 or more points while connecting on a pair of threes and adding a quartet of assists in his return after missing the previous game due to a non-COVID illness. Kennard has provided a spark off the bench all season long, reaching double figures in scoring in nine of his last 10 games and in three straight outings.

Kennard (illness) isn't on the injury report for Saturday's game versus the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard will return to action Saturday after missing Memphis' previous contest with a non-COVID illness. The 27-year-old guard is averaging 12.6 points, 4.2 assists and 3.0 rebounds in 24.6 minutes across his last five outings. Kennard will likely re-enter the starting lineup against Charlotte.

Kennard (illness) will not play in Thursday's game against the Bulls.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard was a late addition to the injury report and will get the night off to recover from his illness. He should be considered questionable for Saturday's game against the Bulls.

Kennard is expected to be out for Thursday's game against the Bulls, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

EDGE Analysis

A decision has not been made regarding Kennard's status for this matchup, but all signs point to him being unavailable. The veteran shooter is hitting 48.6 percent from three-point range over his last 10 games.

Kennard will come off the bench for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

EDGE Analysis

The Grizzlies will start John Konchar and Vince Williams on the wings for this contest. Kennard has played well over his last 10 appearances, averaging 13.3 points, 4.2 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 3.4 three-pointers.

Kennard logged 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 25 minutes during Sunday's 131-91 loss to Boston.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard was back in the starting lineup Sunday after operating off the bench during his return from a three-game absence Friday. However, the sharpshooter was still limited to just 25 minutes. This was likely due to a combination of injury prevention and the blowout nature of the contest, as Kennard's 25 minutes were the second-fewest of the eight Grizzlies who saw action versus Boston. Before Kennard's injury, he started nine straight appearances, averaging 13.9 points, 4.6 assists and 3.6 rebounds in 29.4 minutes during that stretch.
