Kennard (knee) is available to play in Sunday's game versus the Kings, Chris Herrington of The Daily Memphian reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard is finally back for the Grizzlies after sitting out the past 20 games. He's likely to have restrictions, but the Grizzlies will be happy to have the sharpshooter back in the mix. He'll have increased competition for minutes with Vince Williams playing well, however.

Kennard (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard has missed the past 20 games for the Grizzlies, but coach Taylor Jenkins said Friday that he was hopeful to have Kennard and Derrick Rose (hamstring) back in the mix for Sunday. If Kennard is cleared, he's likely to have restrictions. He'll also have more competition for playing time, as Vince Williams has been solid for the Grizzlies.
