Lee could see additional time on the court over the next week with the injury to Marreese Speights (calf) according to coach Steve Kerr, the Mercury News reports.

Analysis:

Speights was diagnosed with a strained right calf Sunday and has been ruled out for at least one week. Lee has seen just nine total minutes through the first three games of the Memphis series, so even a limited role in Kerr's rotation will be an improvement. Although, Speights was only averaging eight minutes during the same time span so Lee likely isn't in store for a significant boost in playing time if does in fact absorb Speights spot in the rotation.
