Conley's foot injury will likely linger throughout the playoffs, ESPN reports.

Analysis:

Conley noted that typically his injury, a foot sprain near his arch, would be treated by placing the foot in a walking boot for an extended period of time. But with the Grizzlies in the midst of a playoff run, Conley does not plan to take any rest, and he'll continue to play through discomfort. "It's a lot of sleepless nights, constantly doing rehab, constantly in a tub or constantly hooked up to some machine trying to fix my foot," Conley said. "It's going to flare up, no matter what I do. It's my new routine, my new reality right now. It's what I have to do to get ready, and I'm happy doing it because I know I'm able to play. And whatever I have to do to play, I'm doing." Conley certainly did not appear to be limited by the injury in Game 2, when he scored 18 points to go with six assists in 29 minutes. He was moving so well, in fact, that opposing point guard Damian Lillard said after the game that he didn't even know Conley has dealing with an injury.
