Lance Stephenson was a healthy scratch Tuesday against the Bulls.

Stephenson was a healthy scratch Tuesday against the Bulls, the Memphis Commercial Appeal's Ronald Tillery reports. "I had no intention of not giving Lance any time. That was an in-game decision," coach Dave Joerger said.

Analysis:

This is obviously not what Stephenson's fantasy owners had in mind Tuesday, and it's just an unfortunate break. He was just 15-for-44 over his previous four games, so that may have had something to do with the benching.
