Jerami Grant provided a boost off the bench with 18 points (6-of-10 FGs), three rebounds, four assists, two steals and two three-pointers against the Lakers on Monday.
Grant was pushed to a reserve role this season for Portland, but that hasn’t limited his fantasy impact. In fact, he is having one of the best seasons of his career. He is shooting over 50 percent from the floor, which would be the best mark of his career and a huge step up after he shot 37.3 percent last season. He is also averaging a career-high for steals and three-pointers while scoring over 20 points per game. If Grant is content remaining a reserve, he can continue to thrive.
