Top Grizzlies News

  • Grizzlies' John Konchar: Back with starting five

    Konchar is starting Monday night against the Kings.

    Konchar will join the starting lineup due to the absence of Luke Kennard (personal). Konchar has started five games so far in March and is averaging 6.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.0 blocks in 31.0 minutes.

  • Grizzlies' Jordan Goodwin: Not active Monday

    Goodwin is on a G League assignment and won't play for the Grizzlies in Monday's game versus Sacramento.

    Goodwin has suited up in three of the Grizzlies' past five contests, averaging 8.3 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists in 25.0 minutes per game. He's nearing his season limit for the number of games that he's able to be active as a two-way player, so Goodwin could be in store for additional absences over the final month of the season.

  • Grizzlies' Vince Williams: Officially out

    Williams (knee) won't play Monday against Sacramento.

    Williams was tagged as doubtful leading up to Monday's matchup, and the team has now officially ruled him out. Look for Jake LaRavia, John Konchar and GG Jackson to continue to see an uptick in opportunities in the frontcourt with Williams unavailable.

  • Grizzlies' Luke Kennard: Out for personal reasons

    Kennard won't play in Monday's game against the Kings due to personal reasons.

    Kennard has been in and out of the lineup as of late due to a combination of an illness and a knee injury, but he will miss Monday's game due to personal reasons. John Konchar will likely start in place of Kennard and GG Jackson should get significant minutes as well.

  • Grizzlies' Scotty Pippen: Out again Monday

    Pippen (lower leg) is out for Monday's game against the Kings.

    Pippen will miss a second consecutive game due to left shin soreness. The severity of his injury is not clear at this point, but if he can return to the lineup in the near future, Pippen could carve out a significant role due to the team's laundry list of injuries.

  • Grizzlies' Brandon Clarke: Won't play Monday

    Clarke (Achilles) is out for Monday's game against the Kings.

    Clarke was assigned to and recalled from the team's G League affiliate Sunday, presumably so he could get a practice in with the team, suggesting that he is progressing towards a return. His return will not come Monday, however, making his next opportunity to suit up Wednesday against the Warriors.

  • Grizzlies' Lamar Stevens: Out again

    Stevens (adductor) is out for Monday's game against the Kings.

    Stevens will miss his fourth game in a row due to a left adductor strain. He had averaged 11.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 0.8 steals, 0.7 three-pointers, 0.7 blocks and 0.5 assists in 22.8 minutes per contest through the Grizzlies' first six games of March before he sustained the injury.

  • Grizzlies' Vince Williams: Doubtful for Monday

    Williams (knee) is unlikely to play in Monday's game against the Kings.

    Williams will likely miss a fifth consecutive game due to left patellar tendinitis. With Williams expected to sit out Monday and with Luke Kennard (personal) also unavailable, the Grizzlies could turn to GG Jackson, John Konchar and Jake LaRavia to absorb most of the available minutes on the wing.

  • Grizzlies' Yuta Watanabe: Remains sidelined

    Watanabe won't play in Monday's game against the Kings due to personal reasons.

    Watanabe hasn't played since Mar. 1 due to a right wrist sprain, but he will miss Monday's game for personal reasons. When he is available, he will likely have a limited role off the bench.

  • Grizzlies' Jaren Jackson: Versatile effort in defeat

    Jackson (quadriceps) closed with 19 points (7-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals over 36 minutes during Saturday's 118-112 loss to the Thunder.

    Jackson returned following a two-game absence but was impressive on both ends of the court, filling out the stat sheet and keeping his remarkable scoring run alive. Jackson has now scored at least 15 points in all but one of his appearances since the beginning of January while also doing it in 25 consecutive games. He's averaging 24.6 points per game while shooting 44 percent from the field in that 25-game stretch.

  • Grizzlies' Desmond Bane: Scores 22 points in return

    Bane (ankle) posted 22 points (7-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-6 FT), seven assists, three rebounds and one block across 32 minutes during Saturday's 118-112 loss to the Thunder.

    Bane made his first appearance since Jan. 12 after missing each of the Grizzlies' last 29 games due to a Grade 3 left ankle sprain. Though his shooting was erratic in his return, Bane didn't seem to be operating under a major minutes restriction and also took on some playmaking responsibilities for a Grizzlies squad operating without multiple point guards. Due to Memphis' status as a non-contender, Bane could be subject to periodic rest days over the team's remaining games, though he should see ample usage whenever he's cleared to play on a given day.

  • Grizzlies' GG Jackson: Extends scoring streak

    Jackson amassed 19 points (5-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one block in 35 minutes during Saturday's 118-112 loss to Oklahoma City.

    Jackson didn't have his best shooting performance since he made just five of his 14 field goals, but he still posted a decent stat line across the board. He's now scored in double digits in four straight appearances, averaging 23.5 points and shooting 45.5 percent from the field in that span.

  • Grizzlies' Brandon Clarke: Practices in G League again

    The Grizzlies recalled Clarke (Achilles) from the G League's Memphis Hustle on Saturday.

    Clarke was assigned and recalled on the same day and presumably went through another practice with the Grizzlies' G League affiliate, as the Hustle didn't play a game Saturday. The veteran forward has yet to play this season while rehabbing from an Achilles surgery last year, but he's nearing a return to game action. However, even when cleared, Clarke figures to operate under major restrictions.

  • Grizzlies' Trey Jemison: Not starting Saturday

    Jemison is not in the starting lineup to face the Thunder on Saturday.

    Jemison recorded 38 points, 12 rebounds and four blocks in a two-game span (both starts) in a back-to-back set against Washington and Charlotte on March 12 and March 13. However, he'll move back to the bench with Jaren Jackson (qudriceps) being ready to return to the court. Jemison is averaging 2.7 points and 2.9 rebounds per game when deployed off the bench.

  • Grizzlies' John Konchar: Joins second unit

    Konchar will come off the bench for Saturday's game against the Thunder.

    The Grizzlies will be getting Desmond Bane (ankle) back in the lineup Saturday, so this is an expected move. Memphis' rotations will likely continue to be volatile going forward, making Konchar hard to trust in most formats.

  • Grizzlies' Santi Aldama: Available to face OKC

    Aldama (elbow) is available to face the Thunder on Saturday.

    The presence of Aldama will provide a boost for the Grizzlies on both ends of the court, as the Spaniard has been productive when called upon duty this season. Aldama, who sat out the loss to Charlotte on Wednesday, is averaging 12.4 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game since the beginning of March.

  • Grizzlies' Scotty Pippen: Not playing Saturday

    Pippen has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Thunder due to left shin soreness.

    Pippen logged 27 minutes against the Hornets on Wednesday, tallying nine points, four rebounds and 10 assists, but it seems the injuries have resurfaced. He missed 12 games in a row between Feb. 14 and March 12, and it remains to be seen whether he'll miss more than Saturday's contest. His next chance to feature will come against the Kings on Monday.

  • Grizzlies' Jaren Jackson: Good to go Saturday

    Jackson (quadriceps) is available for Saturday's game against the Thunder.

    Jackson has missed five of the last eight games for Memphis due to tendinitis, though the Grizzlies have been extra cautious. There's no word of any restrictions ahead of tipoff. The Grizzlies will be getting Desmond Bane (ankle) back as well.
