Hawks get double-digit scoring from 8 players and beat Grizzlies 146-107

Nickeil Alexander-Walker scored 26 points and eight Atlanta players scored in double figures as the Hawks routed the Memphis Grizzlies 146-107 on Monday night
2 DAYS AGO • Associated Press
Not starting Monday Clayton won't start Monday's game against the Hawks.
Impact With Ty Jerome (calf) back in the lineup, Clayton will slide to the second unit. Over six appearances off the bench this month, the rookie first-rounder has averaged 7.3 points and 5.5 assists across 24.0 minutes per game.
2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Scores 11 points in spot start Clayton ended with 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and two steals over 22 minutes during Saturday's 124-101 loss to Charlotte.
Impact Clayton returned to the starting lineup after coming off the bench in his last two outings. Even though he didn't turn heads with his play as he's done in past outings, Clayton continues to find ways to remain productive in his rookie year. The former Florida standout has scored in double digits in four of his last seven appearances regardless of whether he's starting or not.
3 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Moving into starting five Clayton is starting Saturday's game against the Hornets, per Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer.
Impact Clayton will rejoin the starting lineup for the second leg of Memphis' back-to-back set, likely replacing Ty Jerome in the backcourt. The rookie has been an elite playmaker when given the opportunity to lead the offense, having racked up seven and 14 assists in his last two starts. Even when coming off the bench recently, Clayton has remained productive, averaging 9.4 points and 6.4 assists over his last five reserve appearances. He should see a significant workload tonight against a Charlotte defense that has struggled to contain opposing point guards.
4 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Won't start Wednesday Clayton won't start Wednesday's game against Denver.
Impact With Ty Jerome (shoulder) back in the lineup after a one-game absence, Clayton will retreat to the second unit. The rookie first-rounder has averaged 9.4 points, 6.4 assists, 1.4 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 24.8 minutes per contest over his last five appearances off the bench.
MARCH 19 • ROTOWIRE
Logs 26 minutes in return Clayton registered 12 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds, seven assists and one block over 26 minutes during Monday's 132-107 loss to the Bulls.
Impact Clayton returned from a three-game absence as a result of an ankle injury, slotting straight into the starting lineup. While it wasn't the most productive night, Clayton did manage to hand out at least six assists for the fifth straight game. Memphis' guard rotation continues to be highly unpredictable, making fantasy value almost impossible to project. With that said, when healthy, it does appear as though Clayton will feature on most nights, having logged at least 24 minutes in six of his past seven appearances.
MARCH 17 • ROTOWIRE
Entering starting five Clayton is starting Monday's game against the Bulls.
Impact Clayton will join the starting lineup after missing three straight games due to a right ankle sprain. He starred as a playmaker in his last start March 1 against Indiana, finishing with 14 assists in 34 minutes.
MARCH 16 • ROTOWIRE
Cleared to play Monday Clayton (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Bulls.
Impact Clayton will shed a questionable tag due to a right ankle sprain and suit up after being inactive for the previous three games. In his past five appearances, the rookie is averaging 8.6 points, 8.2 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.6 rebounds in 26.4 minutes per contest. With Ty Jerome (shoulder) ruled out, Clayton should see a solid amount of playing time in Monday's contest.
MARCH 16 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Monday Clayton (ankle) is questionable to play Monday in Chicago.
Impact Clayton has missed the past three games, but there's a chance he could get back out there Monday. If Clayton is cleared to return, he could see quality minutes with Ty Jerome (shoulder) not expected to play.

Won't play Friday Clayton (ankle) is out for Friday's game in Detroit.
Impact This will be the third straight game on the inactive list for Clayton, and for now, he should be considered questionable for Monday's game in Chicago. Cam Spencer should see quality minutes Friday night with Memphis' backcourt extremely banged up.
MARCH 13 • ROTOWIRE
Unlikely to play Friday Clayton (ankle) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Pistons.
Impact Clayton is expected to miss a third straight game due to a right ankle sprain. In Clayton's absence, Cam Spencer and Javon Small should see solid minutes off the bench behind Ty Jerome and Cedric Coward on Friday.

Out for Thursday Clayton (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game versus the Mavericks.
Impact Clayton was listed as doubtful for Thursday's game, so it's not surprising to see him hit the sidelines for the first game of this back-to-back set. Cedric Coward (knee), Ty Jerome (calf), Scotty Pippen (toe) and Cam Spencer (back) will join Clayton on the inactive list for Thursday's game, so Javon Small and Jahmai Mashack should get all the run they can handle. For now, Clayton should be considered questionable for Friday's game in Detroit.
MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE
Doubtful for Thursday Clayton (ankle) is doubtful for Thursday's game versus the Mavericks.
Impact Clayton is on track to miss his second straight game Thursday, but maybe he'll be able to get back out there for Friday's game in Detroit. Ty Jerome (calf) and Cedric Coward (knee) are also doubtful to play and Scotty Pippen (toe) has already been ruled out, so Cam Spencer figures to see major minutes Thursday evening.

MARCH 11 • Associated Press
Not playing Tuesday Clayton (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the 76ers.
Impact Clayton is dealing with a right ankle sprain that he likely picked up during Monday's loss to the Nets, when he played 29 minutes and finished with 13 points, four assists, one steal and one three-pointer. In his absence, more minutes will be available for Cam Spencer, Javon Small and Jahmai Mashack. Clayton's next chance to play is Thursday against Dallas.
MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE
Listed as questionable Clayton (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the 76ers.
Impact Clayton is battling a sprained right ankle on the second part of Memphis' back-to-back set. The likes of Jahmai Mashack, Cam Spencer and Javon Small could all see an uptick in ball-handling duties if Clayton is unable to play Tuesday.
MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE
Not starting Monday Updating a previous report, Clayton will not start Monday's game against the Nets.
Impact The Grizzlies have only eight players available Monday, though Clayton will remain in a bench role. However, the rookie first-rounder should still see significant playing time. Over four March appearances (one start), he has averaged 7.5 points, 9.3 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 25.8 minutes per contest.
MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE
Starting Monday Clayton will start Monday's game against the Nets, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Impact With the Grizzlies being shorthanded in the front end of this back-to-back set, Clayton will step into the starting five. As a starter this season (two games), the rookie first-rounder has averaged 8.0 points, 10.0 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 29.5 minutes per contest.

Jrue Holiday had 35 points and 11 assists, and Jerami Grant added 30 points as the Portland Trail Blazers snapped a two-game skid with a 122-114 win over the Memphis Grizzlies
MARCH 5 • Associated Press
Back in bench role Clayton will come off the bench Tuesday against the Timberwolves.
Impact Clayton drew a spot start Sunday and fared well by dishing out 14 assists, but he'll return to the bench Tuesday with Ty Jerome cleared to play. Clayton has scored in double figures in just two of his last 14 appearances as a reserve.
MARCH 4 • ROTOWIRE
Hands out season-high 14 dimes Clayton notched seven points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, 14 assists, one block and four steals in 34 minutes during Sunday's 125-106 win over the Pacers.
Impact Making his second career start, Clayton set a season high in both dimes and swipes. The Grizzlies are likely to continue shuffling their starting lineup around until Ja Morant (elbow) is cleared to return, and Clayton is beginning to flash his potential as a playmaker. Across his first seven outings for Memphis, the rookie first-rounder has averaged 8.4 points, 6.4 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 25.6 minutes per game.
MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE
Moving to starting role Clayton is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pacers, per Tony East of Forbes.com.
Impact Clayton will slide into the starting five for Sunday's matchup, replacing fellow rookie Javon Small, who had started the Grizzlies' last two contests. This move comes as head coach Tuomas Iisalo continues to shuffle his backcourt with Ty Jerome (thigh) officially ruled out and several other rotation pieces sidelined.
MARCH 1 • ROTOWIRE
Shifting to bench Clayton isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Sacramento.
Impact Clayton drew a rare start Saturday against the Heat, but he'll retreat to a bench role Monday as the Grizzlies have elected to tinker with the starting five. The Florida product is averaging 6.0 points, 2.2 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.0 steals over his last five matchups.
