Clayton’s lingering hip issue has him back on the Grizzlies’ injury report. If he can play on Friday, the rookie will likely start at point guard, as Cam Spencer and Ty Jerome are out and Javon Small is listed as questionable.

Clayton’s stretch of productive games continued on Wednesday. He scored the ball well in his 22 minutes and showcased a little bit of playmaking ability in the process. While the rookie guard didn’t have a dominant line, his 15 points marked the fifth straight game he’s finished with double-digit points. The Grizzlies play two more games before their season concludes; Clayton could remain in a featured role the rest of the way.

Hendricks was productive despite playing only 22 minutes on Wednesday. He shot the ball well overall and capitalized on his few three-point attempts, allowing him to score in double figures for a second consecutive game. The fourth-year forward also contributed on the glass and finished as the only Grizzlies player to record at least one block and steal apiece. Hendricks has been a more productive player during his brief time in Memphis than he was previously in Utah. He’ll have an opportunity to finish the regular season strong.

Coward needed only 22 minutes of game action to finish as the game’s leading scorer. He was dialed in from beyond the arc, took advantage of his free-throw attempts, and made the most of his scoring inside the arc. As a result, the rookie logged his seventh 20-point game of the season. He’ll have a chance to land another big performance on Friday against the Jazz.

Hendricks, who did not play in Monday’s loss to the Cavaliers, is available and will replace Olivier-Maxence Prosper in the starting lineup. The other changes to the lineup are Mashack and Okani, who step in for Cam Spencer and Lucas Williamson. Spencer is not available, but Williamson should play significant minutes off the bench.

Jerome is set to miss his ninth consecutive game with a left ankle sprain. Walter Clayton Jr. had 10 points and 11 assists while Cam Spencer had nine points and nine assists in Jerome’s absence in Monday’s loss to the Cavaliers. That duo will continue to handle the point guard duties with Jerome still sidelined.

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.

Bal logged a career-best performance on Monday, despite the loss. The rookie guard, in the sixth game of his career, was one of two Grizzlies off the bench to make six three-pointers. Bal’s hot shooting led him to the first 20-point game of his career, as he finished as one of the team’s top scorers on the evening.

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.

Brunson got off to a slow start to this game, and he entered halftime with just six points. Per usual, he was able to come up big late to help lead the Knicks to victory. He scored 17 points in the fourth quarter and 24 total points in the second half to help New York secure a three-point victory. This was his 11th double-double of the season, with three of those coming in his last five games, including two straight. Brunson’s production this season was pretty similar to what he did last year, though he did slow down as the year progressed. Still, he reminded the world in this game that he’ll be ready to take over when the playoffs start.

The solution for the Knicks was apparently to get Anunoby going offensively. He scored a total of 35 points across their three-game losing streak, but he has averaged 26 points and five triples during this three-game win streak. Anunoby has been a fantasy star once again for New York despite a slight drop in minutes, and he’ll continue to be a pivotal piece for them as they fight for playoff positioning over the final three games of the regular season.

Following a one-game absence against Chicago on Friday, Towns was back to take on Atlanta. That pushed Mitchell Robinson back to the bench, though he still contributed 12 rebounds and five stocks in 20 minutes. KAT wasn’t able to match his triple-double from his last appearance, but he was able to stuff the stat sheet efficiently, which was enough for the Knicks to win a third straight game. KAT hasn’t been as productive in his second season with the Knicks, but he’s still a fantasy stud and will be an important piece for them entering the postseason.

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.

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.

Despite the Grizzlies being down multiple point guards due to injury, Clayton logged 25 minutes in Milwaukee. He missed Friday’s loss to the Raptors due to illness, which may have affected the rookie’s playing time. However, Clayton played well in his time on the floor, shooting 4-of-6 from three and making more than 50 percent of his shots overall. The Grizzlies play four games in Week 24 without a back-to-back; we’ll see who’s available.

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.

With no Karl-Anthony Towns (elbow), Robinson made his return to action as a starter after sitting out Wednesday’s win over the Grizzlies. He did most of his damage before halftime, finishing the first half with 15 points and 10 rebounds. Robinson was also responsible for three defensive contributions in his 23 minutes. Josh Hart also reached double figures in rebounds, grabbing 11 to go along with seven points and four assists. The Knicks play four games in Week 24 for managers whose leagues will remain active.

Add in the rebounds, points and percentages, and this was an excellent end to Week 23 for those rostering Anunoby.

Back in action after sitting out Wednesday’s win over the Grizzlies, Brunson played 30 minutes on Friday.

Brunson recorded his second points/assists double-double in four appearances while committing just two turnovers.

For the first time in a month, Bridges has scored at least 20 points in a game. No Jalen Brunson in the lineup opened things up for the other Knicks, especially those who take a back seat offensively on most nights. In addition to shooting 66.7 percent from the field, Bridges’ three free throws were the most he’s attempted in a game since March 13. In fact, since that win over the Pacers, he totaled four free-throw attempts in the nine games that followed. Regardless of who’s on the court for the Knicks, they need Bridges to be more aggressive on offense.

Given Chicago’s lack of interior depth, fantasy managers will hope for another big night from Towns, minus the turnovers.
