Memphis Grizzlies: 4 Key Players That Are Vital for Wing Depth

The Memphis Grizzlies’ guards have been playing at a high level the past couple of games. They will need to keep it up in order for this team to be successful.

The Memphis Grizzlies are going to need everybody to contribute if they want to make a playoff push. The starting lineup does not have the talent that some other teams have, so they make up for it with a good bench unit.

This team might have the best four guards off the bench in all of basketball. They can all contribute in a variety of ways on both ends of the floor.

It will take some time for the rotation to be fully figured out, and that can be tough on the players. When their numbers have been called, they have all stepped up and played well thus far.

Dillon Brooks was one of the main guys in the starting lineup last season. Going to the bench is a big adjustment for anyone and he will continue to get better in that role.

MarShon Brooks is a guy who can straight get buckets. Some nights he will not be needed to play more than sparingly, but there will be games where they need him to make a big impact with his scoring.

Shelvin Mack is a guy who, in the past, has played a similar role to what he is in now. He will come in and play hard on both ends, and when he is hitting shots, he is a real threat.

Then we have Wayne Selden who has played well. He has improved on the offensive end and his big physical frame gives him an advantage over many guards.

All four of these guys have shown they can make a big impact for the Memphis Grizzlies. If they can show up consistently, this team could stay in the playoff hunt throughout the season. It will be interesting to see how they handle the minutes when and if Chandler Parsons returns to action.
