John Konchar went six straight games without scoring more than 5 points before his last two games. He had 11 vs. Toronto, 8 vs. NOLA and he just knocked down his first three of today. Trending upward after a rough stretch. – 8:28 PM

Memphis loses at Tulane.
Tigers now with 3 of 4 losses coming against teams would be in NIT right now: Saint Louis, Seton Hall, Tulane.
Worth repeating: Memphis needs to beat Houston at least once because no other resume opportunities in AAC.
Also need Auburn to win games. – 8:15 PM

Shapes up as a tough one for Grizzlies tonight. Second night of a back to back against a rested Kings team, Bane out and maybe three other rotation players. Kings offense vs. Grizz D gets top billing. – 7:46 PM
