Mario Chalmers will come off the bench for the Grizzlies on Friday
Memphis Grizzlies guard Mario Chalmers will head back to the bench tonight against the Utah Jazz. Kobi Simmons will move to the starting lineup.
What It Means:
This isn't new territory for the vet, as he's come off the bench in 52 of his 62 games played this season. While he has averaged 20.6 minutes off the bench this season, he could see more than that if Memphis gets down big early. They are 15.5 underdogs against Utah tonight.
The former Kansas Jayhawk is averaging 17.3 FanDuel points this season. We project him for 17.0 tonight.
