Mashack will miss a second straight game, which will open up a few extra minutes for DeJon Jarreau and Tyler Burton. However, the Grizzlies’ rotation has been too inconsistent as of late for either player to be worth streaming.

The third-year forward was one of six Memphis players to score in double figures on Wednesday. And although his scoring came on inefficient shooting, he came up big with nine points in the final frame to help the Grizzlies to a seven-point win. The late scoring also led Jackson to extend his streak of double-digit scoring games to 14, which he’ll have a chance to push to 15 games on Friday against the Celtics. His involvement shouldn’t change down the stretch of the regular season.

Despite not shooting the ball well, Coward managed some decent production in his 25 minutes. The low shooting efficiency was offset by frequent, accurate free-throw shooting and good overall production on the glass. Coward has now scored in double figures in five of his last six appearances. With the Grizzlies’ postseason hopes dwindling, it’s likely they continue to put the ball in his hands and give him opportunities.

In his first game back from a shoulder injury, Jerome helped lead the Grizzlies to a nice victory over the Nuggets. In his 25 minutes on the floor, he had a big scoring impact from the three-point line, but was also Memphis’ most productive rebounder and passer on the evening. His well-rounded performance nearly led to a triple-double. Nonetheless, Jerome’s final line was an impressive one, especially considering how few minutes he logged.

Gafford was available on Wednesday after a three-game absence, but he did not return to the starting lineup. The Mavericks’ center was used in a reserve role, and he put up a season-high 24 points. Gafford has scored at least 20 points in three of his last four games, and he’s provided eighth-round value in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. Gafford’s availability issues are why he’s rostered in just 23 percent of Yahoo! leagues, but he’s capable of having excellent nights like Wednesday.

At first glance, Flagg put up a solid stat line in Wednesday’s defeat. However, he was pestered by Dyson Daniels throughout the night, which negatively affected the rookie’s efficiency. In addition to shooting 40 percent from the field, Flagg was responsible for a season-high six turnovers. Nights like Wednesday have been few and far between for Flagg, and there aren’t many defenders in the NBA as good as Daniels. He’ll look to bounce back on Saturday against the Clippers.

Washington has reached double figures in each of his last four games, with the 23 points being the most he’s scored in nearly a month. Rostered in 40 percent of Yahoo! leagues, the veteran forward has been an 11th-round player in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. That isn’t great fantasy value, but it’s good enough to keep Washington on the radar in 12-team leagues.

Aldama underwent a successful arthroscopic surgery, which was previously reported, and now he will officially miss the remainder of the season. He is expected to make a full recovery and be ready for the 2026-27 season, but fantasy managers won’t be able to utilize him for the rest of this season. He has been sidelined since Feb. 4, so this won’t alter their recent rotation. Olivier-Maxence Prosper, GG Jackson and Taylor Hendricks will continue to play extended minutes in the frontcourt.

Washington had a solid night’s worth of production on Monday, as he shot efficiently from the floor on relatively limited shot attempts. He still converted over half of his looks to fall just short of the 20-point mark and tied a team-high in made three-pointers. There was nothing spectacular about Washington’s numbers from a fantasy standpoint, but he had a decent final line, all things considered.

Flagg put together another balanced performance on Monday. In the loss, he shot the ball fairly well from the field before finishing as one of two Mavericks to score at least 20 points, and led all Dallas players in rebounds in the process. The do-it-all rookie forward was also productive as a passer against the Pelicans before the final horn sounded. Add in his three stocks, and he comes away with a productive night from a fantasy standpoint.

Marshall led all scores in Monday’s Mavericks-Pelicans matchup, as he finished with a season-high in shot attempts. He reached the 30-point mark for the sixth time this season and also came up just a couple of rebounds and a few assists shy of a triple-double. Marshall has taken a big step on the offensive end this season in what’s been a career-best year for him. There’s no reason for fantasy managers to expect a role change or sudden dip in production down the stretch of the season.

After a three-game absence due to an ankle injury, Clayton was thrust into the Grizzlies’ starting lineup, filling in for Ty Jerome. While the rookie played only 25 minutes, he still produced respectable numbers in points and assists. While it’s challenging to trust him in redraft leagues, Clayton is worth rostering in dynasty leagues, at least until the Grizzlies figure out what they’re going to do with the point guard position in the future.

As with Cedric Coward, Wells’ reduced playing time could prove problematic during the fantasy playoff weeks. He logged 23 minutes on Monday and has exceeded 30 minutes just twice since the All-Star break. Wells’ final stat line was decent, but the Grizzlies have been more balanced in their offensive approach, especially on nights when Ty Jerome isn’t available. Memphis plays three more games in Week 21, starting with the Nuggets on Wednesday.

For the first time in over a month, Coward has played in consecutive games. While the rookie had a good night in Chicago, the combination of availability and playing time has eliminated most of his fantasy value. Coward has not logged 30 minutes in a game since December 30, and the Grizzlies have no reason to change that anytime soon as they look to a loaded 2026 draft class.

The objective of the procedure is to address discomfort in the trochlear compartment of Aldama’s right knee. While the Grizzlies won’t provide a timeline until after the procedure, he’s effectively done for the season in fantasy basketball. Olivier-Maxence Prosper, GG Jackson (when healthy) and Taylor Hendricks are the players whose opportunities have increased due to the Grizzlies’ frontcourt injuries. Aldama is under contract next season with a projected cap hit of $17 million and figures to have a bigger role than he did last season if the Grizzlies don’t add a new big man in free agency or via trade.

After sitting out Friday’s loss to the Cavaliers, Washington was one of the difference-makers in Sunday’s rematch. Not only did he record his first 20-point game since February 22, but he also finished with his first 20-point double-double since mid-December. Add in the defensive stats, headlined by five steals, and this was an excellent end to Week 20 for Washington. However, with the Mavericks playing on Monday, a three-game Week 21 could be two for P.J.

Flagg’s double-double on Sunday was his tenth of the season, and second in his last four games. Add in the rebounds and assists, and this was a very good performance for the rookie.
