Culver (COVID-19 health and safety protocols) produced 12 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt), three rebounds and three steals across 30 minutes in Monday's 118-104 win over the Nets.

Culver typically hasn't been included in the rotation this season, but the Grizzlies turned to him for a bench-leading minutes total in his first game since Dec. 17 after he had missed the previous five games while in the protocols. Though Memphis went with an ultra-big starting five featuring Jaren Jackson and Killian Tillie at the forward spots and Steven Adams at center, Culver ended up absorbing most of the vacated playing time at small forward while Kyle Anderson and Dillon Brooks were both in the protocols. Expect Culver to hold down a rotation spot in the short term, but the 2019 lottery pick likely won't have a clear path to minutes beyond this week.
