Ja Morant (illness) is no longer on the injury report for Tuesday’s game against the Hornets.

Morant will return to the Grizzlies’ lineup after sitting out Saturday’s win over the Pistons. Scotty Pippen Jr. will head to the bench after logging 29 minutes as a starter against Detroit. His fantasy value takes a sizable hit due to decreased playing time.

Vince Williams Jr. (illness) was seen getting up shots at Monday’s practice.

V-Dub has missed three straight games due to an illness, but his appearance at practice bodes well for his availability on Tuesday against the Hornets. If he’s able to go, expect him to handle his normal allotment of minutes.

Ja Morant (illness) is expected to play in Tuesday’s matchup with the Hornets.

Morant was a late scratch on Saturday, and though he didn’t practice on Monday, Grizzlies coach Tuomas Iisalo expects him to return following a one-game absence. Morant’s return will likely send Scotty Pippen Jr. back to the bench.

Stephen Curry shot 1-of-10 from the field in Sunday’s loss to the Rockets, finishing with three points, two rebounds, eight assists and one three-pointer in 33 minutes.

Curry made the wrong kind of personal history on Sunday. The three points are the fewest he’s scored in a game in which he’s attempted at least 10 shots in his NBA career. The Rockets used multiple defenders on Curry throughout Sunday’s game, and they were able to shut him down. Houston’s success may be bad news for the Suns, who will host the Warriors on Tuesday. That’s the first of four games Golden State will play during the final week of the regular season.

Brandin Podziemski finished Sunday’s loss to the Rockets with 19 points (7-of-14 FGs), six rebounds, four assists, one steal and four three-pointers in 31 minutes.

After scoring 54 points across his prior two appearances, Podziemski was not as prolific against the Rockets. That’s unsurprising, as Houston boasts one of the best defenses in the NBA. Podziemski still shot 50 percent from the field and made four three-pointers. Over the past two weeks, Podziemski has provided fourth-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats and has meshed well within the Warriors’ starting lineup since the addition of Jimmy Butler.

Gary Payton II logged 20 minutes in Sunday’s loss to the Rockets, recording 16 points (7-of-14 FGs, five rebounds, two assists, three steals and two three-pointers.

After playing just two minutes in Friday’s win over the Nuggets, Payton was far more involved in the Warriors’ rotation on Sunday. He provided surprising offensive production, with 16 points being the most he’s scored in a game since March 17. Add in the rebounds, steals, and three-pointers; this was an excellent night to stream Payton. The Warriors play four games during Week 23, starting with the Suns on Tuesday.

Buddy Hield shot 7-of-14 from the field in Sunday’s loss to the Rockets, tallying 20 points, two rebounds, two assists, one steal and six three-pointers in 25 minutes.

With Stephen Curry having a historically poor night, Hield was one of the Warriors who attempted to shoulder some of the workload. The 20 points were the most he’s scored in a game since March 10, when he hit that number in a win over the Trail Blazers. Hield remained a player rostered in deep leagues, but his value has taken a significant hit from the All-Star break onward. Sunday’s performance was a welcomed one for those who kept the faith.

Luke Kornet played 26 minutes in Sunday’s win over the Wizards, finishing with 13 points (6-of-9 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), 14 rebounds and three assists.

Zach Edey played 29 minutes in Saturday’s win over the Pistons, finishing with six points (3-of-8 FGs), 21 rebounds, six assists and one blocked shot.

Edey surpassed 20 rebounds in a game for the first time this season, making up for a subpar scoring night. In addition to the 21 rebounds, the rookie recorded six assists, which was also a season-high. Over the past two weeks, Edey has provided sixth-round value in nine-cat formats and seventh-round value in eight-cat. The Grizzlies end the regular season with a four-game Week 23, starting with the Hornets on Tuesday.

Desmond Bane tallied 38 points (15-of-23 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, three assists and four three-pointers in 38 minutes in Saturday’s win over the Pistons.

Bane continues to offer even greater value to fantasy managers when the Grizzlies are without Ja Morant, who was scratched just prior to tip-off with an illness. Bane went on to shoot over 50 percent from the field and score a game-high 38 points. The point total is the highest for him since March 17, when he put up 44 in a loss to the Kings. For Bane managers whose leagues run through Week 23, the Grizzlies play four games, starting with the lowly Hornets on Tuesday.

Jaren Jackson Jr. played 35 minutes in Saturday’s win over the Pistons, scoring 27 points (9-of-23 FGs, 8-of-11 FTs), 11 rebounds, two assists, one steal and one three-pointer.

The Grizzlies played Saturday’s game without Ja Morant, who was a late scratch due to illness. Jackson took on more of the offensive workload, and while the field-goal percentage wasn’t great, the overall stat line was solid. The double-double was Jackson’s second in four games and sixth of the season, and the rebound category is where fantasy managers will want to see more production in 2025-26. Unless Jackson goes on an absolute tear next week, he’ll average fewer than six rebounds per game for the second straight season. If there is improvement in that category, Trip will likely boast a higher fantasy floor than he currently does.

Ja Morant (illness) is out for Saturday’s game against the Pistons.

Morant is a late scratch for Saturday’s game, opening up a spot in the starting lineup. Scotty Pippen Jr. is the replacement, and he stands to provide solid streaming value in that role.

Ja Morant (illness) is now questionable for Saturday’s game against the Pistons.

Morant is a late addition to the injury report, as the Grizzlies initially announced him as a starter. If he cannot play, Scotty Pippen Jr. or Luke Kennard will move into the starting lineup. Pippen offers a higher fantasy ceiling as a starter, while Kennard’s promotion would increase Desmond Bane’s value.

Jimmy Butler finished Friday’s win over the Nuggets with 19 points (6-of-13 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), three rebounds, five assists, five steals and one three-pointer in 34 minutes.

Butler has been one of the hottest players in the NBA over the past week from a steals perspective, recording three or more thefts in four straight appearances, including Friday’s season-high tally. Averaging 2.6 steals per game, Butler has provided top-20 value in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. To say he’s fitting in well with his new teammates is an understatement; with Butler in the fold, the Warriors have looked like a threat to come out of the West this postseason.

Brandin Podziemski accounted for 26 points (10-of-16 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), eight rebounds, six assists, two steals and four three-pointers in 36 minutes in Friday’s win over the Nuggets.

Podziemski has scored at least 26 points in three of his last four appearances. Over his past two games, the Warriors guard has shot 12-of-18 from beyond the arc. Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green receive most of the attention, and rightfully so. However, Podziemski’s recent run should not be overlooked as the Warriors look to make a run at a championship. Fantasy-wise, he has been a top-20 player over the past week. He’ll look to continue this recent success on Sunday when the Warriors host the Rockets.

Stephen Curry shot 13-of-24 from the field and 3-of-3 from the foul line in Friday’s win over the Nuggets, tallying 36 points with two rebounds, five assists, two steals, one block and seven three-pointers in 32 minutes.

Curry has been on a roll recently, scoring at least 36 points in each of his last three outings. The Warriors star hit at least three field goals in all four quarters, shooting well over 50 percent from the field on the night. According to Basketball Monster, Curry is ranked second in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past week. The Warriors have another big matchup to end Week 22, as they host the Rockets on Sunday.

Vince Williams Jr. (illness) is out for Saturday’s game against the Pistons.

Williams is set to miss his third straight game with an illness. Luke Kennard figures to see additional minutes with Williams out, though with the Grizzlies’ deep rotation of players that doesn’t necessarily make him fantasy-relevant in standard leagues.

Gary Payton II (thumb) is now questionable for Friday’s game against the Nuggets.

Payton II has missed about a week with a torn ligament in his left thumb. The 32-year-old shooting guard missed Thursday’s game against the Lakers, but has been upgraded to questionable Friday and the Warriors are hoping he’s able to return. Warriors coach Steve Kerr told reporters everyone on the injury report would be available against the Nuggets. Payton II offers minimal fantasy value when healthy.

Stephen Curry (pelvis) and Jimmy Butler (forearm) are questionable for Friday’s game against the Nuggets.

Curry continues to deal with a pelvic contusion while Butler has a forearm injury. While both players are listed as questionable, which implies a legitimate chance to miss the game, Warriors coach Steve Kerr told reporters that everyone will be available against the Nuggets.

Stephen Curry led the Warriors with 37 points (10-of-21 FGs, 13-of-14 FTs), three rebounds, six assists and four three-pointers in a 123-116 win over the Lakers on Thursday.

For just the fourth time this season, Curry shot double-digit free throws, and the Warriors are now 4-0 when he does. In fact, his 14 attempts were a new season-high and the most he has shot in a game since 2021. This performance came on the heels of him scoring 52 points with 12 triples in a win over Memphis, and while Curry didn’t replicate that type of production, his 37 points with only four threes was still impressive. This was only the 12th time in Steph’s career that he had at least 35 points while making four or fewer triples.

Jonathan Kuminga provided a boost off the bench with 18 points (7-of-12 FGs), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and one three-pointer against the Lakers on Thursday.

Following a one-game absence with a pelvic contusion, Kuminga was back to playing his typical role as a scoring option off the bench for the Warriors. Since returning from a two-month absence, he has scored in double figures without reaching 20 points in nine of his 10 games, with the game where he exited after playing just seven minutes being the only exception. Having Kuminga contribute off the bench has been helpful for Golden State, and the encouraging aspect for dynasty managers is that he is still only 22 years old.

Brandin Podziemski lit up the Lakers with 28 points (10-of-17 FGs), eight rebounds, six assists, one steal and eight three-pointers on Thursday.

Less than a week after setting a new career-high with seven three-pointers, Podziemski eclipsed that mark once again. He got off to a blazing hot start to this game and entered halftime with 22 points and six three-pointers, which included a buzzer-beater from halfcourt to enter the break. His second season in the league started off slow, but the 2023 first-round pick ranks inside the top 50 in nine-cat leagues over the past two weeks. He’s heating up at the right time for the Warriors and will be an intriguing option in fantasy drafts next season.

Zach Edey had eight points (3-of-3 FGs), 13 rebounds, one assist and one block against the Heat on Thursday.

Edey has now collected at least 11 rebounds in three of his last four games. Despite inconsistent playing time, the 22-year-old rookie center from Purdue is a rebounding machine when he’s out there. Edey has provided sixth-round fantasy value over the past two weeks as he’s also an excellent shot blocker.

Desmond Bane had 17 points (6-of-23 FGs), nine rebounds, six assists, one steal and one three-pointer against the Heat on Thursday.

Bane struggled on the offensive end with 17 points on 23 attempts from the field. The 26-year-old shooting guard was just 1-of-9 from behind the three-point line. It’s the third time in his last five games that he’s made only one three-point attempt. While Bane’s scoring production has been a little inconsistent lately, fantasy managers can take solace that the Grizzlies have a fourth game this week Saturday against the short-handed Pistons.

Ja Morant had 30 points (11-of-22 FGs), five rebounds, three assists, one steal and three three-pointers in the Grizzlies’ 110-108 victory over the Heat on Thursday.

Morant had at least 30 points for the second-straight game as he seems to be all the way back from his hamstring injury. He made at least 50 percent of his shots from the field for the third-straight game and is 35-of-64 over his last three games. The 25-year-old point guard appears to be excelling in the aftermath of Taylor Jenkins’ firing and under the tutelage of interim coach Tuomas Iisalo.

Jonathan Kuminga (pelvis) is available to play against the Lakers on Thursday.

Kuminga will be good to go after a one-game absence. He’ll occupy his typical role off the bench, which hasn’t resulted in much fantasy production for him. Buddy Hield and Gui Santos will lose out on some minutes, though neither was productive in an increased role on Tuesday.

Gary Payton II (thumb) is out for Thursday’s game against the Lakers.

Payton remains out for another game, but the Warriors’ guard is progressing in his recovery. The Warriors announced that he is now day-to-day moving forward. While this may not be enough to help fantasy managers, and GPII offered minimal value when healthy, getting him back in time for the postseason would benefit the Warriors.

Jonathan Kuminga (pelvis) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Lakers.

Kuminga did not play in Tuesday’s win over the Grizzlies, freeing up additional minutes for Gui Santos and Buddy Hield. However, neither player did enough to impact fantasy basketball in expanded roles. Neither Santos nor Hield is worth adding, especially with the Warriors’ starting lineup at full strength.

John Konchar (illness) is not on the injury report for Thursday’s game against the Heat.

Konchar will be available after sitting out Tuesday’s loss to the Warriors. While he’ll be in the rotation, Konchar’s minutes will not likely be enough to impact fantasy basketball. Managers can afford to leave him on the waiver wire.

Vince Williams Jr. (illness) is out for Thursday’s game against the Heat.

Williams’ continued absence means Luke Kennard should play additional minutes off the bench again. However, he logged 22 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Warriors, which is not enough to make an impact in most fantasy leagues.

Santi Aldama accounted for 18 points (6-of-11 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), six rebounds, one assist, one steal and four three-pointers in 30 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Warriors.

After scoring 21 points and recording a solid stat line in Monday’s loss to the Celtics, Aldama was also solid in Tuesday’s loss to Golden State. This was a needed two-game stretch for the fourth-year forward, who is ranked outside the top 150 in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. Rostered in 43 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Aldama has been a 10th-round player in eight- and nine-cat formats this season. Unfortunately, the production dipped at the wrong time for those who have relied on him for consistent late-round value.

Desmond Bane amassed 19 points (6-of-15 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), four rebounds, five assists, two steals, one block and four three-pointers in 35 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Warriors.

While Bane’s scoring output has been slightly inconsistent recently, he has still provided sixth-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. The 1-of-12 night against Oklahoma City damaged his field goal percentage, with Bane making 44.2 percent of his attempts. However, Bane’s other numbers have been solid, preserving his overall value to category league managers. The good news for Bane managers is that Memphis plays two more games during Week 22, starting with Miami on Thursday.

Jaren Jackson Jr. logged 31 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Warriors, recording 22 points (7-of-20 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and two three-pointers.

Jackson exited with 1:55 remaining in the fourth quarter and the Grizzlies trailing by one, 123-122. Memphis would only score three more points the rest of the way, as no one could contribute with the Warriors taking away Ja Morant and Desmond Bane. Over the past two weeks, Jackson has provided fifth-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats, two rounds worse than his season-long production. One difference has been the field goal percentage, with Trip shooting 43.5 percent over the past two weeks. Fantasy managers hope he’ll clean that up during the Grizzlies’ final two games of Week 22.

Ja Morant shot 14-of-22 from the field and 3-of-3 from the foul line in Tuesday’s loss to the Warriors, finishing with 36 points, three rebounds, six assists, two steals and five three-pointers in 33 minutes.

Wednesday’s point total was Morant’s best since returning from a hamstring injury, and he shot over 50 percent from the field. While much was made of the Grizzlies’ offensive system in the aftermath of Taylor Jenkins’s firing, the team appeared to run more pick-and-roll actions for Morant on Tuesday than they have for most of this season. The staff changes made before the season were meant to install an offense with more ball movement, with current interim coach Tuomas Iisalo among those hires. While that did happen, Memphis’s usage of two-man actions is something to watch for the rest of this season.

Draymond Green accounted for 13 points (4-of-12 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), 10 rebounds, 12 assists, two steals, one block and one three-pointer in 32 minutes in Tuesday’s win over the Grizzlies.

Green finished Tuesday’s victory with his first triple-double of the season and was vital during the fourth quarter. The Warriors forward tallied six rebounds and four assists, combining with Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler to help pull the team over the finish line. Over the past two weeks, Green has provided fifth-round value in eight-cat formats despite shooting 39.3 percent from the field. Steve Kerr’s decision to go with Green as his starting center came at a good time for fantasy managers looking to win a championship, as this change has raised Draymond’s ceiling.

Jimmy Butler finished Tuesday’s win over the Grizzlies with 27 points (7-of-11 FGs, 12-of-12 FTs), six rebounds, four assists, three steals and one three-pointer in 38 minutes.

While Stephen Curry’s 52/10/8/5/1 night grabbed the headlines, the backup he received from Butler is one reason the Warriors left Memphis with the victory. The 35-year-old forward made all 12 free throws he attempted and provided excellent value in points, rebounds, assists, steals and percentages. The Warriors are now 19-4 with Butler on the court since he was acquired from the Heat in early February. He’s given his new team a needed boost, which can also be said for fantasy managers who stuck with Butler throughout his poor start to the season in Miami.

Stephen Curry played 36 minutes in Tuesday’s win over the Grizzlies, finishing with 52 points (16-of-31 FGs, 8-of-8 FTs), 10 rebounds, eight assists, five steals, one block and 12 three-pointers.

Curry produced a masterclass in Memphis, making history on multiple fronts. He scored 32 points and hit eight three-pointers in the first half. He has the most halves of at least eight three-pointers in NBA history with six, and his 22 30-point halves are tied for third all-time with LeBron James. By the game’s end, Curry had 12 three-pointers and an elite double-double. He’s made 12 three-pointers in a game four times, with Tuesday’s effort breaking a tie with former teammate Klay Thompson for the most in league history. And Curry has made at least 10 three-pointers in a game 27 times. He’ll look to stay hot on Thursday when the Warriors visit the Lakers.

Vince Williams Jr. (illness) has been ruled out against the Warriors on Tuesday.

Williams Jr. was a late addition to the injury report and will now be held out of Tuesday’s game. Luke Kennard and Cam Spencer should take on extra minutes with Williams Jr. out, but only Kennard has streaming appeal.

John Konchar (illness) is out for Tuesday’s game against the Warriors.

Konchar’s absence will not significantly impact fantasy basketball, as he played eight minutes in the Grizzlies’ last two games. With Vince Williams Jr. (illness) also out, Luke Kennard’s playing time may increase in a pivotal matchup for both teams. He played 19 minutes in Monday’s loss to the Celtics.

Jonathan Kuminga (pelvis) is out for Tuesday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Kuminga has been downgraded from questionable to out, leaving the Warriors down a rotation player on the wing. Buddy Hield and Gui Santos should play additional minutes off the bench. Neither has been particularly impressive this season from a fantasy standpoint, so neither should be viewed as a must-stream player.

Santi Aldama provided a boost off the bench with 21 points (8-of-18 FGs), eight rebounds, four assists, one steal and three three-pointers against the Celtics on Monday.

Aldama has been solid all season, but the production has been quieter in recent months when compared to his early-season numbers. Monday’s performance was his highest-scoring night since February 2, which was a 23-point night in a win. That is something Memphis hasn’t done much of recently as they lost for the sixth time in their last seven games on Monday. Aldama has been a reliable reserve for them, but it’s hard to count on him for this level of production. He ranks outside the top-200 in nine-cat leagues over the past two weeks.

Ja Morant led the Grizzlies with 26 points (10-of-20 FGs), six rebounds, five assists, two steals and two three-pointers in a 117-103 loss to the Celtics on Monday.

Morant was once again able to turn in a strong stat line in his second game back after missing six games with a hamstring injury. The last time Morant scored less than 20 points in a game was February 20, which was the Grizzlies’ first game after the All-Star break. Availability has once again been an issue for Morant this season, but he hasn’t had any issues pouring in the points when he’s on the floor. This was the first night of a back-to-back, and it wouldn’t be surprising if Morant didn’t play against the Warriors on Tuesday. Keep an eye on the injury report, though that game is far more important for the playoff race out West, so it would be surprising if they opted to rest him against Golden State and play him against Boston.

Jaren Jackson Jr. recorded a double-double on Monday with 20 points (8-of-16 FGs), 15 rebounds, one assist, one block and three three-pointers against the Celtics.

The most notable flaw in Jackson Jr.'s game is his lack of rebounding production, but that wasn’t the case on Monday. Though it wasn’t enough to get the win, JJJ set a new career-high for rebounds, eclipsing his previous best mark of 13, which he has done twice over the last two seasons. It was a nice boost in Monday’s game, but it isn’t something that managers should grow accustomed to. Memphis still has three more games this week, including the second night of a back-to-back against the Warriors on Tuesday.

Jonathan Kuminga (pelvis) is questionable to play against the Grizzlies on Tuesday.

After taking a hard fall on Sunday, Kuminga was initially ruled out with an ankle injury. The Warriors are now calling it a pelvic contusion. There is a chance that he returns to the lineup to take on Memphis with a chance to move into fifth place in the West on the line. If not, Buddy Hield and Gui Santos will take on extra minutes.

Jimmy Butler amassed 13 points (4-of-5 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, eight assists, four steals and one three-pointer in 24 minutes in Sunday’s win over the Spurs.

Butler did not provide much scoring on Sunday, but category league managers received excellent value in the assist and steals categories. He’s dished out eight assists or more on five occasions since joining the Warriors, so the production in that category was unsurprising. However, the four steals matched his season-high, with Butler hitting that number for the first time since February 10. Over the past two weeks, Butler has provided fifth-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats.

Stephen Curry logged 26 minutes in Sunday’s win over the Spurs, finishing with 13 points (4-of-10 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), three rebounds, six assists, one steal, one block and two three-pointers.

Curry didn’t do much on Sunday, which was bad news for fantasy managers counting on an elite performance to close out Week 21. However, the Warriors did not need much from their superstar, as the team scored 148 points and shot nearly 58 percent from the field. For Curry managers who have a championship to compete for in Week 22, the Warriors play four games. Hopefully, he can rebound from Sunday’s pedestrian performance.

Moses Moddy accumulated 20 points (7-of-11 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, three assists, three steals, one block and three three-pointers in 25 minutes in Sunday’s win over the Spurs.

Moody has reached double figures just twice in his last seven games, scoring 20 points on both occasions. While Sunday was a good night for him, the recent dip in production has negatively impacted Moody’s fantasy value. Over the past two weeks, he’s ranked just inside the top 150 in nine-cat formats and just inside that threshold in eight-cat. Moody is only rostered in 14 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and that’s unlikely to change heading into Week 22, even with Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) exiting Sunday’s win during the first half. Kuminga played seven minutes, finishing with four points and one rebound.

Brandin Podziemski accounted for 27 points (9-of-14 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, five assists, one steal and seven three-pointers in 27 minutes in Sunday’s rout of the Spurs.

Podziemski and the Warriors put on an offensive clinic in San Antonio, scoring 148 points on 57.7 percent shooting from the field. The second-year guard led the way, with the 27 points being the most he’s scored in a game since February 5. A double-digit scorer in six straight and eight of his last nine appearances, Podziemski has provided sixth-round value in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. And the lone game in which he did not reach double figures was one he exited after less than a minute with a back injury that sidelined him for nearly two weeks. Golden State plays four games during Week 22, starting with the Grizzlies on Tuesday.

Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) will not return to Sunday’s game against the Spurs.

Kuminga, who took a hard fall during the second quarter of Sunday’s game, will not return due to a sore right ankle. He logged six minutes, finishing with four points and one rebound. Kuminga’s absence frees additional minutes for fellow reserves Buddy Hield and Gui Santos. Neither player has been a consistently impactful fantasy option this season, but Hield offers a safer floor.

Jonathan Kuminga took a hard fall on his backside and went to the locker room in the second quarter of Sunday’s matchup with the Spurs.

Kuminga has appeared in eight straight games after missing two months, so this latest injury is certainly a concern. The Warriors are up 68-44 at halftime, so it wouldn’t be surprising if Golden State held Kuminga out for the rest of the game for precautionary reasons. Gui Santos could pick up a few extra minutes in his absence.

Stephen Curry (pelvis) is available for Sunday’s matchup with the Spurs.

Curry was given a probable tag on Saturday, so his availability on Sunday isn’t a surprise. Expect him to handle his usual workload as the Dubs play their fourth-straight road game.

Ja Morant tallied 22 points (9-of-23 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), eight rebounds, 10 assists, one steal and one three-pointer in 31 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Lakers.

Morant returned to the Grizzlies’ lineup on Saturday after missing six games with a hamstring injury. He did so while playing for a new head coach, with Toumas Iisalo grabbing the reins on an interim basis, after Taylor Jenkins was fired earlier this week after six seasons at the helm. The point guard’s efficiency wasn’t great, as he shot 9-of-23 from the field, but 10 assists countered his four turnovers. When healthy, Morant has been a superior option in eight-cat formats and team builds in which turnovers are punted. Memphis’s four-game Week 22 includes a Monday/Tuesday back-to-back, so there may be another opportunity for Scotty Pippen Jr. to start. Pippen played 23 minutes off the bench against the Lakers, finishing with 16 points, three rebounds, five assists, one steal and three three-pointers.

Pippen played 23 minutes off the bench against the Lakers, finishing with 16 points, three rebounds, five assists, one steal and three three-pointers.

Zach Edey accounted for 14 points (7-of-10 FGs), 11 rebounds, two assists, one steal and three blocks in 27 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Lakers.

Edey reached double digits in rebounds for the 15th time this season and first since March 9. That was also the last time the rookie recorded a double-double, moving his tally to 10 on the season. While Edey has offered sixth-round value in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks, five of six games were played without Ja Morant. Morant returned to the lineup on Saturday, and the 7-foot-4 rookie produced an excellent stat line. That’s encouraging for those who have Edey rostered, especially with the Grizzlies playing four games during Week 22.

Jaren Jackson Jr. logged 28 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Lakers, finishing with 24 points (8-of-13 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and three three-pointers.

Jackson shot the ball well on Saturday, scoring 23 points or more in three of his last four games. However, the overall stat line was lacking, especially in the rebound department. He’s grabbed five rebounds or less in six straight games, which has factored into JJJ only being a top 75 player in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. Sharing the court with Zach Edey doesn’t help, but fantasy managers are likely hoping for more rebound production from Jackson during Week 22.

Desmond Bane amassed 29 points (12-of-18 FGs), four rebounds, six assists, two steals and five three-pointers in 33 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Lakers.

After a brutal 1-of-12 performance in Thursday’s loss to the Thunder, Bane got back on track against the Lakers. He’s scored 20 points or more in five of his last seven outings, a run that includes a 44-point effort on March 17 against the Kings. Ja Morant returning to the lineup on Saturday likely helped boost Bane’s efficiency, but he is shooting 48.4 percent from the field for the season. Memphis plays four games during Week 22, starting with a Monday/Tuesday home back-to-back against the Celtics and Warriors.

Marvin Bagley III (concussion) is available for Saturday’s game against the Lakers.

Bagley is back after sitting out the Grizzlies’ last two games. While he can provide additional depth off the bench, that isn’t enough to make him a player worth rostering in most fantasy leagues.

Stephen Curry (pelvis) is probable for Sunday’s game against the Spurs.

Curry returned from a two-game absence to score 23 points with five made three-pointers against the Pelicans Friday. The 37-year-old point guard is likely to suit up Sunday given his probable listing. Fantasy managers can insert him into lineups as usual.

Jimmy Butler provided 18 points (6-of-13 FG), 10 rebounds, four assists, a steal and a three-pointer across 35 minutes in Friday’s win over the Pelicans.

Butler stunk it up against the Heat as the Warriors lost their second straight game. Fortunately for Golden State fans and fantasy managers alike, Butler got back on track with a strong statistical showing. He’ll look to keep the positive momentum going on Sunday against the Spurs.
