Grizzlies' Vince Williams: Sees just 14 minutes
Williams provided three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound and five assists in 14 minutes during Sunday's 105-90 win over Denver.This was a disappointing workload for Williams, as the Memphis Grizzlies opted to get Luke Kennard and Jake LaRavia more involved off the bench Sunday. Williams has plenty of upside as he demonstrated many times last season, but it will be tough for him to provide consistent value with such a sporadic role, especially when Marcus Smart (illness), Ja Morant (hip) and Zach Edey (ankle) all return to action.

Grizzlies' Vince Williams: Well-rounded line off bench
Williams (tibia) played 24 minutes off the bench and finished with nine points (4-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists and two blocks in Friday's 123-118 loss to the Warriors.Poor shooting from the free-throw line aside, Williams delivered quality numbers across the board in his season debut after having missed the Memphis Grizzlies' first 12 games with a left tibial stress reaction. Williams' return to action coincided with Desmond Bane's (27 minutes) return, and with Marcus Smart (ankle) also playing in his second contest following a multi-game absence due to injury, the Grizzlies are now back to full strength on the wing. As a result, Williams may not see his minutes pick up dramatically from what he received Friday, which could make it difficult for him to re-emerge as a meaningful asset in 12-team category leagues.
