QUOTES/NOTES:
• Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant is expected to be re-evaluated in two weeks with his left ankle sprain and return based on rehab progress, sources tell TheAthletic & Stadium. Swelling has gone down in the ankle, which Durant injured slipping in pregame warmups Wednesday. (Shams Charania)
• Grizzlies center Steven Adams had a stem cell injection on Wednesday as part of his treatment for a PCL sprain in his right knee, and will be reassessed in two weeks. (HoopsRumors)
• Taylor Jenkins at pregame Memphis called Draymond’s comments about Dillon Brooks on yesterday “competitive banter.” (Damichael Cole)
• Steve Kerr pregame Memphis on Draymond Green having 15 technical fouls and the back-and-forth with Dillon Brooks (on Green’s podcast): “I've never said one word to Draymond, and he's never crossed the limit… He knows how valuable he is. He knows he can't get that next (technical foul). We need him.” (Dalton Johnson, CJ Holmes)
• Jonathan Kuminga is out tonight because of a rolled ankle in warmups. Jonathan Kuminga was down on the ground for a while after hurting his ankle during warmups. He was finishing a move and about to dunk or do a layup, but went straight down to the hardwood. He was already listed on injury report after tweaking his ankle in OKC. (Anthony Slater, Dalton Johnson)
• On why it’s so hard for them to win on the road: “My theory would be… you got a lot of teams that are even and if it’s an even game the home team has the advantage. That would be my brilliant theory… teams shoot the three way better on their home floor… some of that is random (and some of it their defense).”
NOTE: From Golden State Warriors at Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday, March 9, 2023, held at Fedex Forum in Memphis, TN. WE WILL GO LIVE FOR GSW-MEM ON THU 3/9 AT 4:15PM PST (4:30PM TIPOFF).
