Grizzlies finally giving Troy Daniels an expanded role

The Grizzlies have spent years playing the same style of basketball. “Grit ‘n Grind” defense and reliance on big men Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph on offense. The only issue in recent years has been a lack of a legitimate 3-point threat, especially off of the bench.

Until now.

After a slow start to the season, Troy Daniels has proven that he’s a legitimate threat from behind the arc. In just shy of 20 minutes per game, Daniels is averaging 10.1 points per game, good for fourth-best on the team. His outstanding shooting (41 percent from 3) is a big part of the Grizzlies’ success.
