Memphis Grizzlies: 3 takeaways from first 2 weeks of 2018-19 season

1. It’s the Mike Conley show

Since returning from his season-ending injury, it looks like Mike Conley is back to his old self. He’s playing like he was never injured.

Conley is averaging 19.0 points, 6.0 assists and 3.8 rebounds in 30.6 minutes per contest. Some teams can be described as nothing without their leader and the Grizzlies are one of them. With him back in the lineup, Memphis looks completely different. His best performance so far came against the Kings, where he lit the stat sheet up with 27 points.

The veteran point guard is back, putting up All-Star numbers like the player Grizzlies fans have all come to know and love. Should Conley be able to stay on the court this season, it looks like this year can be a successful one.

In a stacked Western Conference, the Memphis Grizzlies are no slouches and will take the fight to their opponent game by game.
