GAME 51: MEM vs TOR

It was awesome seeing Ja back and playing well. Resting his shoulder did some good. I wouldn't hate letting him rest it a bit longer and come back after the All Star break.

Smart and VWJ are questionable so sounds like they should be back soon, maybe tonight?

I agree. There is no need to over-utilize Ja. We need him fresh and hungry for PO.

I expect Smart to be traded for L.Ball tomorrow. And Kennard for Harris.
Harris then being waived and his spot is given to Spencer, unless there is a juicy buyout guy emerges.

At this point, I think that we need to play Ja every game if possible. He's only played in 30 of our 51 games so far, and he hasn't appeared in more than five consecutive games for close to two years IIRC.

My concern is that he'll be out of rhythm and/or won't be in condition for what will hopefully be an extended playoff run if he's in-and-out of the lineup for the remaining 31 games.

Love seeing our team almost healthy. And true jefe he may need the run and then to rest the last game or two if his shoulder is bothering him any.
