Rotowire
Konchar notched zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal over six minutes during Sunday's 112-110 loss to Phoenix.

Grizzlies' John Konchar: Ruled out Saturday
Rotowire
Konchar will not suit up for Saturday's game against the Pacers due to a non-COVID illness.
Konchar will be sidelined for just the third time this season with an illness. Dillon Brooks (ankle) was also tabbed questionable for the contest, meaning David Roddy and Ziaire Williams could earn more playing time Saturday. However, Konchar has averaged just 14.3 minutes in his last three contests, so the additional workloads for his teammates will be limited. Konchar's next chance to take the floor will come Monday against Phoenix.

Rotowire
Konchar will start Thursday's game versus the Magic, Rob Fischer of Bally Sports Southeast reports.
Konchar continues to receive the nod when Desmond Bane (toe) gets the night off, which is the case again Thursday for injury management purposes. Konchar is averaging 9.0 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.3 steals over 27.9 minutes across 21 games as a starter, so there's some additional upside to his fantasy outlook Thursday.

Grizzlies' John Konchar: Packs stat sheet
Rotowire
Konchar had nine points (4-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt), seven rebounds, five assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Monday's 128-103 win over the Hawks.

Grizzlies' John Konchar: Modest line in Friday's win
Rotowire
Konchar amassed eight points (4-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 25 minutes during Friday's 114-103 win over the Pistons.
Konchar continues to start for the Grizzlies, although his production of late has begun to decline. He has been a top-100 player over the past month but has seen that fall outside the top 150 in the last three games. He remains a viable asset, thanks primarily to his ability to chip in across multiple categories. With that said, his upside is limited, meaning he could be dropped if a hot free agent comes along.
