De'Anthony Melton - Solid performance off bench Melton amassed 12 points (5-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, five assists, one block and three steals over 31 minutes during Sunday's 104-91 loss to the Mavericks. Impact With Tyus Jones and Desmond Bane both in COVID-19 protocols, Melton continues to see an increased role off the bench. Over his last four games, he has averaged 12.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.8 steals in 22.5 minutes. As long as the aforementioned regulars remain out, Melton is set to continue seeing increased playing time and usage. With that said, Jones and Bane will likely both be back at some point during the Grizzlies' upcoming three-game week.
