Analysis: Jerome is set to miss his ninth consecutive game with a left ankle sprain.

That duo will continue to handle the point guard duties with Jerome still sidelined. |

Mon, Apr 6, 2026, 5:15 PM
Dariq Whitehead totaled 20 points (7-of-15 FGs), three rebounds, one assist and six three-pointers in the loss to the Cavaliers on Monday.
Analysis: Similar to his teammate Adama Bal, Whitehead also came off the bench, drained six three-pointers, and finished with 20 points. The points and triples were both season-highs for the third-year guard, who played in his third game of the season on Monday. He hasn't gotten many opportunities this season, but may continue playing a large role off the bench to end the season. |

Olivier-Maxence Prosper Olivier-Maxence Prosper scores 24 points vs. CLE
Mon, Apr 6, 2026, 4:59 PM
Olivier-Maxence Prosper tallied 24 points (10-of-12 FGs, 0-of-1 FTs), three rebounds, one steal and four three-pointers in the loss to the Cavaliers on Monday.
Analysis: Prosper was the highest-scoring Grizzlies player on Monday, with all of his points coming from field goals. He only missed two shots and was red-hot from beyond the arc to efficiently make his way past the 20-point mark. Prosper didn't contribute in many other areas, which was the story of his season from a fantasy standpoint ??" he didn't provide much value aside from inconsistent scoring. |

Taylor Hendricks Taylor Hendricks (thumb) out Monday vs. Cleveland
Mon, Apr 6, 2026, 1:18 PM
Taylor Hendricks (thumb) will not play against the Grizzlies on Monday.
Analysis: Hendricks' absence on Monday comes on the heels of a 12-minute, 11-point outing against the Bucks on Sunday. While sidelined, GG Jackson figures to remain in a big role for Memphis as the regular season nears its end. |

Mon, Apr 6, 2026, 1:14 PM
Taj Gibson (foot) will not play on Monday against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Gibson was downgraded from doubtful to out ahead of Monday's contest. The veteran forward had returned from a foot injury in the previous game against Milwaukee, but his absence on Monday could indicate that he's still dealing with pain. Gibson is averaging 3.5 points and 2.6 rebounds per game, playing a minimal role for the Grizzlies. |

NBA Injury Report

Dariq Whitehead Dariq Whitehead scores 16 points vs. Milwaukee
Sun, Apr 5, 2026, 12:14 PM
Dariq Whitehead tallied 16 points (6-of-19 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), three rebounds, two assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Sunday's loss to the Bucks.
Analysis: Due to injuries, Whitehead was one of four Grizzlies to play at least 36 minutes on Sunday. He didn't shoot the ball particularly well, but give the former first-round pick credit for not getting cheated on his attempts. Toby Okani (nine points, four rebounds, one steal and one three-pointer) played 41 minutes and Lucas Williamson (5/3/4/1 with one three-pointer) played 36 on Sunday; in addition to Whitehead, those two should play plenty in Week 24. |

Rayan Rupert Rayan Rupert records 33/10/10/4/1 line vs. MIL
Sun, Apr 5, 2026, 12:12 PM
Rayan Rupert finished Sunday's loss to the Bucks with 33 points (9-of-19 FGs, 13-of-16 FTs), 10 rebounds, 10 assists, four steals, one block and two three-pointers.
Analysis: The silly season tends to produce stat lines that make little sense to fantasy managers. That's precisely what happened in Milwaukee on Sunday, as Rupert had the game of his NBA career. Not only did he record his first triple-double, but he became the first Grizzlies player to record a 30-point triple-double with at least four steals. While Rupert's line is a cause for celebration among those rostering him, others may use it as evidence that fantasy seasons should not run through Week 23. |

Taj Gibson Taj Gibson (foot) upgraded to available vs. MIL
Sun, Apr 5, 2026, 8:58 AM
NBA Injury Report
Taj Gibson (foot) is available for Sunday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Gibson is available after a three-game absence. While injuries may lead to the veteran playing a few rotation minutes, he is not worth rostering in fantasy leagues. |
|
GG Jackson GG Jackson (knee) downgraded to out vs. MIL
Sun, Apr 5, 2026, 8:51 AM
NBA Injury Report
GG Jackson (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Jackson will not get to follow up on his 30-point performance in Friday's loss to the Raptors. Olivier-Maxence Prosper is available and should fill the resulting void in the starting lineup. |
|
Ty Jerome Ty Jerome, Cam Spencer remain out vs. Milwaukee
Sat, Apr 4, 2026, 2:16 PM
NBA Injury Report
Ty Jerome (ankle) and Cam Spencer (back) are out for Sunday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Jerome will remain out for a seventh straight game, while Spencer will miss a second due to his back injury. With Javon Small also out, the Grizzlies will rely heavily on Walter Clayton Jr. if he's able to return from a hip injury that kept him out of Friday's loss to the Raptors. |
|
Olivier-Maxence Prosper Olivier-Maxence Prosper (back) off injury report
Sat, Apr 4, 2026, 2:12 PM
NBA Injury Report
Olivier-Maxence Prosper (back) is not on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: Prosper is available after sitting out Friday's loss to the Raptors. Taylor Hendricks filled the result void in the starting lineup and should remain there since the Grizzlies are unlikely to have GG Jackson (knee). |
|
Taj Gibson Taj Gibson (foot) probable vs. Milwaukee
Sat, Apr 4, 2026, 2:01 PM
NBA Injury Report
Taj Gibson (foot) is probable for Sunday's game against the Bucks.
Analysis: After a three-game absence, Gibson is on track to play on Sunday. However, while rotation minutes are likely to be available, the 40-year-old is unlikely to affect fantasy basketball. |

GG Jackson GG Jackson goes for 30 points Friday vs. Toronto
Fri, Apr 3, 2026, 5:28 PM
GG Jackson totaled 30 points (10-of-16 FGs, 7-of-9 FTs), five rebounds, one assist, one block and three three-pointers in the loss to the Raptos on Friday.
Analysis: Murray followed his 20-point outing against the Knicks with an even higher-scoring performance on Friday, setting a new season-high against the Raptors. Eighteen of Jackson's points and three of his three-pointers came after halftime. The third-year forward's strong second half of the season has been encouraging after a slower start to the year. Given the Grizzlies' injuries and roster construction throughout the year, he will be an interesting player to project next fantasy season. |
