Grizzlies' Mike Conley: Scores 31 in return from eye injury Friday

Conley finished with 31 points (12-17 FG, 7-11 3Pt), six assists, three rebounds and one steal across 34 minutes during Friday's 101-88 victory over the Knicks.

Analysis:

Conley missed Wednesday's game against the Thunder due to a laceration in his right eye but didn't seem phased by the injury at all Friday against the Knicks, tying his season-high seven made threes on route to 31 points. Friday's performance is a continuation of what has been a huge year for Conley, as he's averaging a career-high 20.5 points per game on 40.0 percent from beyond the arc while also handing out 6.4 assists per game. In addition, he's committing just 2.3 turnovers per game, demonstrating an ability to make smart decisions with the basketball. The 29-year-old should be owned in all year-long formats and is an especially intriguing DFS play when the Grizzlies face an up-tempo opponent.
