DENVER (AP) — Allen Iverson (FSY) is expected to make his season debut for the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday night at the Sacramento Kings.

Iverson is recovering from a partial tear to his right hamstring and missed his third consecutive game when the Grizzlies played at the Denver Nuggets on Sunday night.

Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins said that when Iverson returns, he will be part of a three-guard rotation with O.J. Mayo and Mike Conley (FSY).

Iverson, who was traded from Denver to the Detroit Pistons last season, declined to speak with reporters Sunday night, saying he will talk when he plays in a game.
