Huff ended with 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt), one rebound and one block across 11 minutes during Wednesday's 129-115 win over the Spurs.
Huff returned from a one-game absence, adding depth to the center rotation in Memphis. The team is currently running with Huff, Zach Edey and Brandon Clarke, limiting the opportunities for all three. Whatever they are doing seems to be working, meaning Huff is unlikely to move into a sizeable role, at least not with the team's current mindset.

Grizzlies' Jay Huff: Probable for Wednesday
Rotowire
Huff (knee) is probable for Wednesday's matchup against the Spurs.

Over his last five outings, he has averaged 5.6 points and 1.6 rebounds in 12.8 minutes per contest. Huff will likely continue to receive little playing time unless injuries arise at the center position.

Rotowire
Huff is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Rockets due to left-knee soreness.

Huff is averaging 15.3 minutes per game this season off the bench. However, during Monday's win against the Mavericks, he saw an increased role, taking starter Zach Edey's spot in the second half.

Rotowire
Huff produced 17 points (7-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt), one rebound and two assists across 17 minutes during Sunday's 130-106 loss to Oklahoma City.
With Zach Edey (concussion), Santi Aldama (ankle) and Brandon Clarke (knee) all sidelined, Huff stepped up for the shorthanded Grizzlies in his largest workload since Dec. 8. Huff has made the most of his limited minutes all season and will be on the streaming radar unless the Grizzlies get some reinforcements back for Tuesday's game against the Suns.

Grizzlies' Jay Huff: Limited in return Friday
Rotowire
Huff (ankle) recorded seven points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and two rebounds in 13 minutes during Friday's 132-124 victory over the Pelicans.
Huff returned from a four-game absence due to a left ankle sprain, playing a limited role off the bench. Despite a hot start to the season which prompted the Grizzlies to upgrade him from his two-way deal, Huff has struggled to carve out consistent playing time at center behind Zach Edey and Brandon Clarke. Huff's role could continue to be muted so long as Edey and Clarke are both healthy.

Rotowire
Huff supplied 17 points (6-14 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 24 minutes during Sunday's 140-112 win over Washington.
Huff had the hot hand off the bench as he produced his 14th game of the season with double-digit points. His lack of peripheral stats makes him a tough sell outside of deeper formats, however, as he's averaging 9.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.6 blocks and 1.8 three-pointers through five December outings.

Grizzlies' Jay Huff: Shines off bench
Rotowire
Huff recorded 20 points (7-10 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block across 14 minutes during Saturday's 124-107 victory over the 76ers.
Huff dominated in the post during Saturday's win, making 70.0 percent of his tries from the field while contributing at the rim with a swat. Playing time has been somewhat limited for the big man so far this season behind Zach Edey, so while his most recent appearance was impressive, it's unfair to expect this type of production from Huff moving forward.

Wizards' Jay Huff: Excels again in backup role
Rotowire
Huff posted 14 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists, three blocks and one steal across 30 minutes in Wednesday's 134-116 loss to the Hawks.
Huff has supplanted Taj Gibson for the backup center role in both of the Wizards' past two games and based on how he's performed, the 24-year-old Virginia production looks poised to remain Daniel Gafford's top understudy for the final two contests of the season. He followed up a 17-point, nine-rebound performance in Tuesday's 140-128 loss to the Timberwolves with another solid line in the second leg of the back-to-back set, and Huff actually outpaced Gafford (23 minutes) in terms of playing time.

Rotowire
Huff registered 12 points (5-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, an assist and two blocks across 24 minutes in Saturday's win over Westchester.
Huff posted a decent stat line but didn't log heavy minutes, as Capital City already locked up a playoff spot. The big man should be one of the Go-Go's most prominent offensive weapons in the postseason after he averaged 16.3 points and 7.7 rebounds per game across nine outings with Capital City in the regular season. That was an uptick in numbers compared to the 14.3 points per game he averaged across 19 outings with the South Bay Lakers earlier in the campaign.
