Probable for Monday
Huff's knee soreness seems to be a new ailment, but it likely won't be enough to keep him sidelined Monday. Huff has seen inconsistent minutes of late, and he seems to be trending toward a smaller role as the team gets healthy. He has averaged 5.6 points and 1.6 rebounds in 12.8 minutes over his last five appearances.

Sinks game-winning shot
Morant had a rough outing from an efficiency perspective, as he made only five of his 19 shots overall. However, and as has happened plenty of times in the past, the star floor general came through when Memphis needed him the most, as he sunk what ended up being the game-winning shot with a floater from a tight angle. This was the first time he failed to reach the 15-point mark since Dec. 19.
