Ty Jerome Ty Jerome (thigh) considered doubtful vs. Indiana
Sat, Feb 28, 2026, 11:29 AM
NBA Injury Report
Ty Jerome (thigh) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Jerome did not play in Friday's win over the Mavericks, and he appears likely to miss another game on Sunday. Scotty Pippen Jr. moved into the starting lineup in Dallas, and he is worth streaming despite the minutes limit. Also worth streaming is Cam Spencer, who scored 25 points off the bench on Friday. |

Santi Aldama Santi Aldama (knee) doubtful vs. Indiana
Sat, Feb 28, 2026, 11:21 AM
NBA Injury Report
Santi Aldama (knee) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Aldama has not appeared in a game since February 4, and he's played in two since January 18. However, the doubtful tag represents a step in the right direction for the Grizzlies' forward/center. If Aldama can play on Sunday, fantasy managers should expect a heavy minutes restriction. |

Taylor Hendricks Taylor Hendricks scores 11 points vs. Dallas
Fri, Feb 27, 2026, 5:12 PM
Taylor Hendricks recorded 11 points (5-of-7 FGs), eight rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one three-pointer in Friday's win over the Mavericks.
Analysis: Hendricks' fantasy value remains low, but he's played at least 20 minutes in all nine of his games with Memphis. He isn't a player who needs to be picked up in most fantasy leagues, as Olivier-Maxence Prosper should be the priority. However, he is worth tracking for the silly season, especially with it unknown when ??" or if ??" Zach Edey and Santi Aldama will return from their injuries this season. |

Olivier-Maxence Prosper Olivier-Maxence Prosper posts 16/10/1/3/1 line
Fri, Feb 27, 2026, 5:12 PM
Olivier-Maxence Prosper accounted for 16 points (7-of-10 FGs), 10 rebounds, one assist, three steals, one block and two three-pointers in Friday's win over the Mavericks.
Analysis: With the Grizzlies' lack of interior depth, Prosper's opportunities have increased substantially recently. And to his credit, the third-year forward has taken advantage despite playing out of position on most nights. O-Max recorded his first career double-double and a complete stat line in just 25 minutes of action. While the Grizzlies did sign Taj Gibson on Thursday, he was inactive for Friday's game. Until the Grizzlies remove Prosper from the starting lineup, he's worth rostering in fantasy leagues. |

Scotty Pippen Scotty Pippen Jr. records 15 points vs. Dallas
Fri, Feb 27, 2026, 5:11 PM
Scotty Pippen Jr. tallied 15 points (7-of-12 FGs), two rebounds, three assists, three steals, one block and one three-pointer in Friday's win over the Mavericks.
Analysis: With Ty Jerome sidelined by a thigh injury, Pippen was moved back into the starting lineup for Friday's game. And he showed why some fantasy managers remain optimistic about his potential for the rest of the season. Pippen recorded a complete stat line, shooting over 50 percent from the field and recording three steals. He did this in 22 minutes, and the Grizzlies may not lift his minutes limit anytime soon. However, as long as Pippen is in the rotation, he'll be worth holding in deeper leagues. |

Scotty Pippen MEM start Small, Pippen, Wells, GG, Prosper
Fri, Feb 27, 2026, 2:09 PM
NBA Lineups
Javon Small, Scotty Pippen Jr., Jaylen Wells, GG Jackson and Olivier-Maxence Prosper will start Friday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: The Grizzlies won't have Ty Jerome (thigh) for Friday's game, opening up a spot in the starting lineup. Pippen has been tabbed to fill the void, which raises his fantasy ceiling despite his minutes likely being limited. |

Ty Jerome Ty Jerome (thigh) downgraded to out vs. Dallas
Fri, Feb 27, 2026, 1:56 PM
Memphis Grizzlies
Ty Jerome (thigh) is out for Friday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Jerome was initially doubtful for Friday's game, so the downgrade in status is unsurprising. His absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup, with Scotty Pippen Jr., Cam Spencer and Walter Clayton Jr. being potential replacements. Also, Javon Small started Wednesday's loss to the Warriors alongside Jerome. |

Taj Gibson Report: Grizzlies sign Taj Gibson
Thu, Feb 26, 2026, 12:55 PM
Shams Charania
ESPN's Shams Charania reports that the Grizzlies have agreed to a two-year deal with Taj Gibson.
Analysis: Gibson finished last season with the Hornets, starting 11 of the 37 games that he appeared in. He's back in the NBA for a 17th season, joining the Grizzlies for the rest of the season. Due to Memphis's lack of healthy post players, the 40-year-old may play legitimate rotation minutes. However, there's no need to consider adding Gibson. |

Kyle Anderson Kyle Anderson (personal) to remain out vs. Dallas
Thu, Feb 26, 2026, 12:24 PM
NBA Injury Report
Kyle Anderson (personal) is out for Friday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Anderson, who missed two games with a sore right knee, was not with the team for Wednesday's loss to the Warriors for personal reasons. He'll miss another game on Friday, further enhancing the fantasy value of GG Jackson and Taylor Hendricks. Jackson is the superior fantasy option of the two. |

Ty Jerome Ty Jerome (thigh) doubtful Friday vs. Dallas
Thu, Feb 26, 2026, 12:21 PM
NBA Injury Report
Ty Jerome (thigh) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Jerome is dealing with a left thigh contusion and is on track to miss Friday's game. If he can't go, the Grizzlies will promote Scotty Pippen Jr., Cam Spencer or Walter Clayton Jr. into the starting lineup. Javon Small, who started alongside Jerome on Wednesday, will also be in the mix for more playing time. |

Ty Jerome Ty Jerome records 22 points, five assists vs. GSW
Wed, Feb 25, 2026, 3:58 PM
Ty Jerome accounted for 22 points (8-of-14 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, five assists, one steal and four three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Warriors.
Analysis: Back in the lineup after sitting out Monday's loss to the Kings, Jerome produced another efficient stat line in 24 minutes of play. As long as he's available, the Grizzlies' guard needs to be rostered in 12-team leagues. It's unknown when Ja Morant will return from his elbow injury, so Jerome should retain excellent value until then, at a minimum. |

GG Jackson GG Jackson notches game-high 24 points vs. GSW
Wed, Feb 25, 2026, 3:57 PM
GG Jackson tallied 24 points (8-of-12 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), eight rebounds, two assists, one steal, two blocks and three three-pointers in Sunday's loss to the Warriors.
Analysis: A starter in eight of Memphis' last nine games, Jackson has been one of the Grizzlies' most reliable fantasy options since the trade deadline. Rostered in 31 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he has provided seventh-round per-game value in eight- and nine-cat formats, according to Basketball Monster. With it being unknown when, or if, Santi Aldama and Zach Edey will return from their injuries, now would be a good time to add Jackson if he's sitting on the waiver wire. |

Kyle Anderson Kyle Anderson (knee, personal) downgraded to out
Wed, Feb 25, 2026, 12:41 PM
Memphis Grizzlies
Kyle Anderson (knee, personal) is out for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Already dealing with a sore right knee, Anderson is also away from the Grizzlies for Wednesday's game for personal reasons. With Jahmai Mashack (G League) also inactive, Memphis will continue to rely on Taylor Hendricks, GG Jackson and Olivier-Maxence Prosper in the frontcourt. |
|
Kyle Anderson Kyle Anderson (knee) questionable vs. Golden State
Tue, Feb 24, 2026, 12:11 PM
NBA Injury Report
Kyle Anderson (knee) is questionable to play against the Warriors on Wednesday.
Analysis: Slo Mo has missed the last two games for Memphis and could make it a third straight absence against Golden State. Taylor Hendricks and GG Jackson should continue to play big minutes as a starter, while Olivier-Maxence Prosper should take on extra minutes off the bench. |

Ty Jerome Ty Jerome (illness) removed from injury report
Tue, Feb 24, 2026, 12:09 PM
Memphis Grizzlies
Ty Jerome (illness) is not on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: Jerome did not play in Monday's loss to the Kings, opening up a spot in the starting lineup for Scotty Pippen Jr. Jerome's return may push Pippen and Cam Spencer to the bench, with the latter being replaced by Walter Clayton Jr. based on how Grizzlies head coach Tuomas Iisalo handled the rotation when all four were available for Saturday's loss to the Heat. |

Scotty Pippen Scotty Pippen Jr. has uneven game in loss to Kings
Mon, Feb 23, 2026, 4:38 PM
Scotty Pippen Jr. had six points (0-of-8 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), two rebounds, eight assists and five steals in Monday's loss to the Kings.
Analysis: Pippen didn't make a shot from the field, going 0-of-8 with his only points coming from the free throw line. He also had eight assists, but turned the ball over seven times. Pippen was a force on the defensive end with five steals, which only added to the up and down nature of his performance. |

Kyle Anderson Kyle Anderson (knee) out Monday against Kings
Mon, Feb 23, 2026, 1:13 PM
Kyle Anderson (knee) is out for Monday's game against the Kings.
Analysis: Anderson missed Saturday's loss to the Heat and was initially listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Kings with a knee injury, so his absence isn't much of a surprise. GG Jackson is the primary beneficiary from Anderson's absence from a fantasy perspective as he'll see plenty of minutes off the bench. |
|
Ty Jerome Ty Jerome (illness) out Monday against Kings
Mon, Feb 23, 2026, 1:06 PM
Ty Jerome (illness) is out for Monday's game against the Kings.
Analysis: Jerome was a late addition to the injury report with an illness and was subsequently ruled out for Monday's game against the Kings. Cam Spencer could move into the starting lineup with Scotty Pippen Jr. seeing additional minutes off the bench. |
|
Ty Jerome Ty Jerome (illness) questionable Monday vs. SAC
Mon, Feb 23, 2026, 8:16 AM
NBA Injury Report
Ty Jerome (illness) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Kings.
Analysis: Jerome is a late addition to the injury report, so his availability against Sacramento is dubious. If Jerome is sidelined, Cam Spencer could join the starting lineup with Scotty Pippen Jr. earning some additional run off the bench. |
|
Kyle Anderson Kyle Anderson (knee) doubtful vs. Sacramento
Sun, Feb 22, 2026, 12:47 PM
NBA Injury Report
Kyle Anderson (knee) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Kings.
Analysis: Andreson did not play in Saturday's loss to the Heat, and it appears likely that he'll miss a second game on Monday. If so, the Grizzlies will once again rely on Taylor Hendricks and Olivier-Maxence Prosper as starters, with GG Jackson playing heavy minutes off the bench. Jackson is the best fantasy option of the three. |
