One month ago, Memphis Grizzlies NBA 2K League franchise Grizz Gaming was one of the top five teams in the Eastern Conference, and they were one of the league’s bigger breakout storylines.

Then, right as Grizz Gaming started becoming one of the 2K League’s early-season storylines in 5v5 along with 3v3, Grizz Gaming Point Guard BP tears his cornea in his eye, which sends the Grizz into damage control.

BP showed growth as a point guard this late into his NBA 2K League career. Spartan was lethal on the boards for Memphis. The JMoney/BP backcourt was capable of not only sharing the ball-handling capabilities, but scoring at will against most opposing defenses.

A Grizz Gaming team that had made a deep run early in the 2K League season in the 3v3 setting, but was starting to find an identity in the 5v5 scene on the defensive side of the floor.

Now, a month removed, and it feels a NBA iPhone Accessoriess if this Grizz Gaming’s season five success has come to a scratching holt — dropping their last six matchups for a combination of reasons. Some of which Grizz Gaming cannot control. BP being out the last week or so has been brutal for Memphis’ offensive production.

Going winless in their five 5v5 Seed Week games, which locked them into the ticket, Memphis now moves their focus to the 3v3 format with hopes of getting BP back into their starting lineup — while t Kyrie Irving hey’re sitting two games behind a playoff spot in the NBA 2K League’s Eastern Conference 3v3 scene.

With BP’s availability up in the air heading into this week, Grizz Gaming Head Coach and General Manager Lang Whitaker was honest on how Memphis approached another week of the u luka doncic jersey kids youth white nknown… “We’ve got guys that can do lots of things, and we are trying different things.”

Whitaker continued, “I think one of the more important things about 3v3 is being flexib NBA Shorts le and versatile.” Whitaker mentioned several different names regarding point guard come tip-off tonight against Knicks Gaming, but wouldn’t pinpoint a spec NBA Toys ific player.

Return of BP?

The possibility is high. I’m not sure what the return from a torn cornea is, however, BP has been out of the lineup due to that injury for going on two weeks.

Before BP’s injury, Memphis’ was still in search of an identity on th Draymond Green e offensive side of the floor in the 5v5 format. BP was brought in for his success on the 2K League scene in regards to the new 3v3 format.

Whitaker also mentioned Monday afternoon how not having a guy like BP in the 5v5 setting isn’t as bad versus the 3v3 is. He’s not wrong. Double ball-handlers, and multiple guys that can share the load definitely hid no BP in 5v5, but his availability will be needed in 3v3.

Memphis will not have a great week without BP in their lineup, and healthy.

For the first time in weeks, it feels like there is light at the end of the tunnel as Memphis returns to 3v3.
