Memphis GrizzliesMEMTy JeromeDevelopmentPresser

Jerome arrived in great shape after heavy offseason work and is playing with big confidence.

“The shape he showed up to camp in, he has put a hell of a lot of hard work in this last spring and this summer... The confidence that he's playing with is incredible. He feels that confidence also from coaching staff, but especially from the team.”

Guys have been bringing timely screens to get Jerome better opportunities in all three games.

“In all three games so far, they are working for him to get better opportunities. You see guys bringing timely screens, whether it's those small, smalls or five men screening for him.”

Memphis GrizzliesMEMZach EdeyGameplanPresser

Edey guarded several different players and found a way to impact the game against them.

“He was on Ike, then he was on Green. He was on Payton. I think he was on Horford and found a way to impact the game against all of these guys.”

Portland Trail BlazersPORRobert Williams III · Toumani CamaraMinutes & UsagePresser

Williams played extended minutes while Camara's foul trouble also cut into his time.
