Kennard has been ejected from Saturday's game against the Spurs after being assessed two technical fouls, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard departed the contest in the second half. He finished with 14 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, five assists and two steals across 24 minutes off the bench.

Kennard (back) is available for Saturday's game against the Spurs.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard has been upgraded from questionable to available, but Ja Morant (shoulder) and Desmond Bane (hip) have been ruled out. Despite Morant and Bane being out, Kennard will continue to come off the bench while Scotty Pippen and John Konchar will start.

Kennard is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Spurs due to left lower back soreness.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard is in danger of missing his first game since Jan. 4 due to a back issue. With Desmond Bane (hip) and Vince Williams (knee) also questionable, Scotty Pippen, Cam Spencer and John Konchar could all receive increased playing time against San Antonio.

Kennard notched six points (2-5 FG, 2-5 3Pt), three assists and two rebounds over 20 minutes in Thursday's 127-113 loss to Indiana.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard shifted back to the Memphis bench due to the return of Ja Morant (knee) in the starting rotation, going on to pitch in off the bench with his shot from deep and his distribution. Kennard has provided a boost offensively as of late, connecting on two threes and dishing out a pair of assists in two straight outings.

Kennard will come off the bench in Thursday's game against the Pacers, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ja Morant (knee) is good to go Thursday, which means Kennard will revert back to Memphis' second unit. Across his last seven appearances as a reserve, the veteran sharpshooter has averaged 8.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 0.7 steals in 21.0 minutes.

Kennard is part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard will fill in for Ja Morant (knee) on Wednesday. In six starts this season, Kennard has averaged 13.5 points, 4.3 assists and 2.5 rebounds across 26.7 minutes.

Kennard finished with three points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 16 minutes during Saturday's 125-112 loss to the Thunder.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard moved back to the bench and delivered his worst performance since before Christmas. The Grizzlies are starting to get healthy bodies back on the floor, meaning Kennard's role is likely to be anything but consistent, at least for the foreseeable future. While he could move into a meaningful spot again at some point, it appears as though his time as a regular starter has come to an end.

Kennard is not in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the Thunder on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard has started in the Grizzlies' last four games and has averaged 9.3 points, 4.0 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals over 26.8 minutes per game over that span. However, Kennard will retreat to the bench Saturday due to the return of Desmond Bane (ankle).

Kennard provided five points (1-6 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and three assists over 22 minutes during Wednesday's 138-107 victory over the Raptors.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard remained in the starting lineup but, once again, struggled to find any real rhythm. He has now scored a total of 15 points over the past three games, trending in the wrong direction after an encouraging period in late-January during which he scored at least 20 points in three of five games. Despite starting, Kennard's role is far from guaranteed given the current depth in Memphis.

Kennard closed with 22 points (9-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, two assists and two steals over 33 minutes during Thursday's 120-119 victory over the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard has been a reliable addition to the starting lineup every time Ja Morant (shoulder) misses time, but the veteran sharpshooter has been taking his game to a whole new level of late. He's surpassed the 20-point mark in three of his last five outings and has reached the 15-point plateau in five of the previous eight. During that eight-game stretch, Kennard has averaged 15.3 points per game while making 57.4 percent of his three-point attempts.
