The Grizzlies don't plan to make any big adjustments for Game 2 vs. the Thunder on Monday. Head coach Dave Joerger said the Grizzlies "just need to be decisive and get our spacing correct," and his sentiments were echoed by virtually every player interviewed after the game. They'll need to be more energetic and forceful from the opening tip on Monday to even the series at 1-1 and shift home court advantage back to Memphis for Game 3.

Mike Conley hit just 6-of-16 shots and missed all six of his 3-point attempts in Saturday's Game 1 loss to the Thunder, but finished with 16 points, five rebounds, 11 assists and three steals. He came through for fantasy owners, but will have to play better than this if the Grizzlies are going to beat OKC. And that's a tall order.

Mike Conley played 42 minutes against the Mavericks on Wednesday during a big 106-105 win, scoring 22 points with four boards, five assists, two steals and one 3-pointer. He had a hamstring issue on Monday and has been able to do all of his activities leading up to tonight. Conley hit a couple big free throws down the stretch, which was reassuring after he missed some clutch ones on Monday. The Grizzlies will take on the Thunder in the first round.

Mike Conley said that his right hamstring injury has improved, though his status for Wednesday's game remains uncertain. "I'm doing a lot of stretching and keeping heat on it, so it should be loose," Conley said. Fantasy owners relying on Conley for production in the season's final game should check back closer to tip-off for the final word on his status.

Mike Conley suffered a right hamstring injury in Monday night's big win over the Suns, but was able to play through it. He was hobbling toward the end of the game, but still played effectively, finishing with 14 points and seven assists. Conley said after the game that he didn't think the injury would keep him from playing on Wednesday against Dallas, but owners will want to check back just to make sure he's good to go in the finale.

Mike Conley returned to action on Wednesday March 26.

Mike Conley tweaked his right ankle in the Grizzlies' 109-92 win over the Wolves on Monday, but stayed in the game and finished with 23 points on 9-of-12 shooting, three treys, five boards, six assists and two steals in 30 minutes. Yes, this is the ankle that he said was at "75 percent" with no chances of getting better or worse as the season goes on, and for that reason we'll put him on the injury report. The fact that he stayed in the game and played as well as he did suggests the injury is minor, however, and the Grizzlies are up to their necks in the playoff chase.

Mike Conley hit 9-of-15 shots for 21 points, five rebounds, four assists and a 3-pointer in Saturday's win over the Pacers. Conley still hasn't really blown up this season, but has played well. He's averaging 16.0 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.4 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.8 3-pointers over his last five games. The Grizzlies play four times in each of the next two weeks, making Conley look like a must-start player.

Mike Conley said after Wednesday's game that his ankle is "at about 75 percent," and added that he didn't believe it would get "any better or worse" for the rest of the year. Conley has been just a mid-to-late round value since returning from that injury, but last night he did rattle off 18 points on 7-of-15 shooting with four rebounds, seven assists, three steals and a trey. It's anybody's guess if he'll turn the corner and return to his normal levels of high-end production, but last night's outing was a step in the right direction.

Mike Conley was outmatched by Kyle Lowry on Friday during a 99-86 loss, scoring 10 points with six boards, six assists and one steal in 30 minutes. He was hitting a bunch of treys lately with eight makes in his previous three, but his shot just was not there. Conley was a second-half stud last year, but he's off to a slow start this season with 14.1 points, 4.9 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.5 triples on 36.3 percent from the field in his previous 12 games since the break.
