Grizzlies' Luke Kennard: Held to four points in loss
Kennard totaled four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one block in 18 minutes during Tuesday's 118-99 loss to the Thunder in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Although he's shooting 50 percent from the field in the playoffs, the Grizzlies are using the veteran sharpshooter very sparingly. Through the opening two games, Kennard is averaging 4.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.5 blocks and 0.5 three-pointers in 15.0 minutes per contest.

Grizzlies' Luke Kennard: Won't play Sunday vs. Dallas
Kennard (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.
Kennard will miss Sunday's regular-season finale due to right knee soreness, but he should be ready to go for the start of the Grizzlies' postseason run, potentially as soon as Tuesday for the start of the Play-In Tournament. With Kennard, Desmond Bane (groin), Ja Morant (shoulder) and Scotty Pippen (back) all out, the door is open for Yuki Kawamura, Cam Spencer, Vince Williams and John Konchar to all see increased playing time.

Grizzlies' Luke Kennard: Improved performance Friday
Kennard supplied 12 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal in 23 minutes during Friday's 117-109 loss to Denver.
Kennard was back in the rotation, scoring double-digit points for the first time in the past 10 games. It's been an up-and-down season for Kennard, who at one point played a key role, starting four consecutive games in early February. Through 65 games, he has averaged 8.9 points, 3.3 assists and 1.7 three-pointers in 22.6 minutes per game.

Grizzlies' Luke Kennard: Not likely to play vs. Dallas
Kennard is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Mavericks due to right knee soreness.
The Grizzlies have already locked up a spot in the Play-In Tournament, so there's no point in risking some of their regular rotation members, and Kennard fits that mold as a dangerous sharpshooter, regardless of whether he starts or comes off the bench. The doubtful tag suggests Kennard might not play, and if he ends up being ruled out, Cam Spencer, John Konchar and Vince Williams could see more time in the backcourt. Other players such as Scotty Pippen (back), Desmond Bane (groin) and Ja Morant (shoulder) are also carrying doubtful tags.

Kennard's efficient shooting helped him record a season-high 30 points and lead Memphis in scoring despite coming off the bench. Kennard continues to be one of the NBA's best outside shooters, converting 46.4 percent of his 4.3 three-point attempts per contest this season.

Grizzlies' Luke Kennard: Doubtful for Sunday
Kennard is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Pelicans due to low back soreness.
The veteran guard's potential absence could lead to the Grizzlies leaning on Scotty Pippen to shoulder a heavier load off the bench. Kennard had appeared in each of the Grizzlies' last 27 games, averaging 10.1 points, 3.7 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 1.9 three-pointers and 0.8 steals in 23.4 minutes per contest.

Grizzlies' Luke Kennard: Hits for 17 in Monday's start
Kennard provided 17 points (8-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 35 minutes during Monday's 132-130 loss to Atlanta.
With Ja Morant (shoulder) unavailable, Kennard got the start in the Grizzlies' backcourt and played a season high in minutes. The 28-year-old doesn't typically see high volume even when starting -- he hadn't attempted more than 10 FGs in a game since Jan. 30 -- but Kennard has nabbed multiple steals in three of the last eight games, averaging 10.6 points, 3.9 assists, 2.5 boards, 1.3 threes and 1.0 steals over 25.1 minutes a contest during that span.

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.
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.
