RecapTy Jerome supplied 21 points (7-of-14 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), two rebounds and five assists over 28 minutes in a one-sided defeat at the hands of the Thunder on Friday.
Jerome was effective inside the three-point line, but went just 2-for-7 from distance on a night where Memphis shot just 22 percent (10-for-45) from downtown. The 29-year-old point guard has been a revelation for fantasy managers, topping the 20-point mark on six occasions through eight games to open the year. The Grizzlies have dropped two straight after an impressive six-game winning streak to open the season. They’ll attempt to turn things around when they kick off a four-game week with a road matchup against the Raptors on Monday before facing the Nuggets, Pelicans and Nets.
