Ezeli will move into the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies, Rusty Simmons of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Analysis:
With Andrew Bogut (rest) sitting out for Saturday's matchup, Ezeli will get his 13th start of the season. In his previous 12 starts, Ezeli averaged 7.8 rebounds, 6.0 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks over 19.8 minutes. Both Ezeli and Marreesse Speights figure to see plenty of minutes in Saturday's tilt, and Anderson Varejao could pick up a few minutes off the bench.
