With the NBA Draft completed and a fair portion of the free agency buzz being scooped up by teams looking to shore up for next season, serious considerations must be made for teams with new players to introduce into potential starting lineups.

Among these teams, the Memphis Grizzlies will have important decisions ahead as they attempt to sort out the potential benefits of running different lineups with their diverse roster that offers strong presences on both the defensive and offensive ends.

With the addition of Zach Edey via the ninth overall pick in the draft, the Grizzlies have a wide array of options regarding how they approach a starting unit and which key players will rotate off the bench.

How will Grizzlies opt to approach a potential starting lineup?

Despite being loaded with talent on both ends, there will still only be five available starting spots for the team, and there will inevitably be players who could potentially start but will find themselves beginning games on the bench.

However, Memphis should keep a positive outlook on the situation as they can feasibly bring in various starting lineups to contend with the challenges they will inevitably face across the league, especially during a potentially deep playoff run.

With the free agent class dwindling, it's more than likely that Memphis will go into the 2024-2025 season focusing primarily on players they currently have under contract and have acquired via recent drafts.
