Ty Jerome led the Grizzlies with 40 points (14-of-22 FGs), five rebounds, five assists, two steals and five three-pointers in a 135-134 overtime loss to the Pelicans on Monday.

Jerome returned to the lineup after missing Saturday’s game against the Kings with a back issue. He also popped up on the injury report with the back injury ahead of Thursday’s game, and while he played through it, he struggled mightily. It doesn’t appear that it’s bothering him anymore. Jerome had his second 40-point game of the season, and while it wasn’t enough to keep Memphis’ winning streak alive, it was still another monster performance for Jerome, who should continue to produce at a high level for fantasy managers for the rest of the season.
