Grizzlies' Vince Carter: Out for rest Sunday

Carter will not play during Sunday's matchup against the Lakers for rest purposes, Peter Edmiston of The Commercial Appeal reports.

Analysis:

The 40-year-old swingman has averaged 30.4 minutes per game over the past 10 contests, likely taking a toll on his body. The Grizzlies will opt to rest him against the struggling Lakers with the playoffs just around the corner. In his absence, James Ennis and Troy Daniels could see additional run.
