TIP INS

Grizzlies: Coach J.B. Bickerstaff remains impressed by the early play of rookie forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (12.5 points, 4.4 rebounds), who just turned 19 last month: "He's extremely gifted and athletic, but the most important thing is his want-to. The first thing he does every day is work on his defense."

Clippers: G Milos Teodosic, who has played in only eight games, told Serbian media he expects to return to European basketball, possibly this season. Clippers coach Doc Rivers said he'd heard the report, but doesn't expect him to return this season. Said Rivers: "We want Milos to be happy. Obviously, he hasn't played the minutes or at level he'd like to."
