Kennard contributed 19 points (7-9 FG, 5-7 3Pt), four rebounds and five assists over 32 minutes during Friday's 137-114 win over the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard continues to defy the odds, turning in another strong performance Friday. He has been a top 60 player over the past month, averaging 13.4 points per game on 56.6 percent shooting, including 3.6 triples. He has been a perfect addition to the Grizzlies, affording Ja Morant some more space in which to work. In what was seen as a minor acquisition, Kennard could prove to be a key piece for the Grizzlies as they embark on what they are hoping will be a deep playoff run.

Kennard (ankle) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard has been downgraded from doubtful to out Wednesday due to right ankle soreness. Tyus Jones, John Konchar and David Roddy are candidates to receive extended minutes in his absence. Kennard's next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with Milwaukee.

Kennard (ankle) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard dropped 20 points (6-10 3Pt) as a starter during Tuesday's win over Portland, but it appears he'll likely get the night off Wednesday, along with Ja Morant (hip). Tyus Jones figures to draw the start in Morant's expected absence, while Dillon Brooks will return to action versus the Pelicans and should fill the most of Kennard's missing minutes. However, with Kennard unavailable, John Konchar and David Roddy figure to remain part of the rotation, as well.

EDGE Analysis
Kennard moved into the starting lineup with Dillon Brooks (hip) out and tied his second-highest scoring mark of the season. Over his past 12 appearances (two starts), Kennard has averaged 14.9 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 27.3 minutes while shooting 57 percent from behind the arc.

Kennard will enter the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against Portland according to Rob Fischer of Bally Sports Southeast.
EDGE Analysis
Dillon Brooks is being held out by the Grizzlies due to a hip issue. Kennard has been playing some of the best basketball of his career in recent weeks and will be looking to bounce back from a mild showing against the Bulls on April 2.

Kennard closed with 17 points (6-11 FG, 5-10 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist over 33 minutes during Friday's 108-94 win over the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard is firmly entrenched as one of the best scoring weapons off the bench for the Grizzlies, as his floor spacing and long-range shooting are vital in Memphis' offensive scheme. He's been on a tear of late and has scored in double digits in 10 games in a row, averaging 15.3 points while shooting an elite 59.4 percent from deep in that span.

Kennard isn't in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Desmond Bane will replace Kennard in the starting five Friday. Kennard is still a valuable fantasy asset, as he is averaging 16.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 25.0 minutes across his last five games coming off the bench.

Kennard will move into the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Andrew Greif of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kennard will be earning his first start in a Memphis uniform Wednesday evening, and he should see plenty of minutes with Desmond Bane (foot) and John Konchar (hip) watching from the sidelines. Kennard has been heating up over the past three games with averages of 20.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 6.0 triples and 1.0 steals per contest, so he's certainly on the radar as a potential streamer.
