Left patellar tendinitis will keep Williams sidelined for a fifth straight game. That leaves Cam Spencer to handle the backup point guard duties, and he has been productive enough to merit being rostered in deep leagues.

Landale did not play in Friday’s win over the Bucks, which led to Christian Koloko playing 28 minutes off the bench. He wasn’t productive enough to merit streaming if Landale remains out, but Koloko’s playing time is worth watching due to the Grizzlies’ lack of healthy post players.

Kispert’s continued absence does not significantly affect fantasy basketball, but it does free up minutes for some of Washington’s other wings. Tre Johnson has not reached the point where he’s a must-stream player, but that may change later in the season.

George is dealing with a sore left hip flexor. If he can’t play on Sunday, Justin Champagnie is a potential replacement in the starting lineup. If that were to happen, Champagnie could start two straight games, as the Wizards also play on Monday. Khris Middleton, who has not played both games of back-to-backs, is currently active for Sunday’s game.

Spencer made the most of his opportunities on Friday. On low volume, he shot the ball well, especially from beyond the arc, consistently got to the free-throw line, and made contributions as a facilitator in his 25 minutes of game action. Spencer has been one of the more fun and productive bench players this season. He’s now reached double figures in scoring in 14 straight games — he’ll have a chance to extend his streak to 15 on Sunday against the Wizards.

Jackson Jr. put together another well-rounded performance in Friday’s win. Among the several notable stats, his performance on the defensive end was particularly strong and reminiscent of his Defensive Player of the Year-type outings. The veteran forward has now averaged 22.8 points, 7.2 rebounds and 2.8 blocks over the past 6 games and has been arguably the Grizzlies’ most impressive and reliable player over that stretch. They’ll likely continue to lean on him, which could lead to similarly productive performances from a fantasy basketball standpoint.

Morant played 25 minutes in his return from an ankle injury on Friday. With efficient scoring and strong facilitating throughout, the veteran guard ended up tallying his fifth double-double of the season. Although the numbers weren’t jaw-dropping, it was good for fantasy managers to see Morant productive and on the court again in a season full of injuries. Once his minutes increase, he should see a boost in his offensive production.

McCollum has scored at least 20 points in five of his last eight games. He has been one of the few Wizards to provide consistent fantasy value this season, which is unsurprising, given his career track record. McCollum’s role is secure for now, but his name is one to watch ahead of the February trade deadline. A move to another team may be what ensures the veteran guard of a consistent role through the fantasy playoffs, as that may not be guaranteed if he remains with the rebuilding Wizards.

Between injuries and production, this has been an underwhelming season for Coulibaly so far. That makes Friday’s performance that much more satisfying for the Wizards wing and those who continued to roster him. The 21 points were a season-high for Coulibaly, who also provided excellent value in rebounds and “stocks.” Rostered in 11 percent of Yahoo! leagues, his eight-cat fantasy value remains outside the top-150. However, he’s someone to watch ahead of the “silly season,” as there should not be any reason to shut down Coulibaly later in the year.
WAS • Forward • #18

The Wizards put forth one of their best performances of the season on Friday, with George and five others scoring at least 12 points. The second-year wing continues to exceed the expectations of most fantasy managers, providing fifth-round value in eight-cat formats. And the timing of this performance was great for George, as he endured the worst game of his season in Tuesday’s loss to the Hornets. While the occasional “dud” can happen, George’s overall production has been highly encouraging.

Morant and Coward are back after missing time due to injury, with the former sitting out the last four. However, while they are starting, Morant and Coward are on minutes restrictions. Cam Spencer and GG Jackson will come off the bench, but rotation minutes should not be an issue for either player, especially Spencer.

A late addition to the injury report, Landale will sit with a sore right calf. With Zach Edey (ankle) already out, Santi Aldama takes on even greater importance within the Grizzlies’ rotation.

Champagnie is a late addition to the injury report, and with Corey Kispert (hamstring) already ruled out, there will be extra minutes on the wing available. Tre Johnson should take on a larger reserve role, though Bilal Coulibaly and Khris Middleton should see a slight bump in minutes as well.

Morant has missed the Grizzlies’ last four games with a sprained left ankle. Since Vince Williams Jr. has also been out, Cam Spencer has filled in as the starting point guard.

Coward did not play in Tuesday’s win over the Jazz, which moved GG Jackson into the starting lineup. Jackson played 30 minutes, finishing with 18 points, nine rebounds, one assist, one block and two three-pointers. While it would be a roll of the dice, Jackson would be worthy of streaming consideration if the Grizzlies remain as shorthanded as they were on Tuesday.

Kispert exited Tuesday’s loss to the Hornets with tightness in his left hamstring and will not play on Friday. With Cam Whitmore (shoulder) out indefinitely with a deep-vein thrombosis, there will be more minutes available to Tre Johnson off the bench.

Aldama returned to the starting lineup in this game and led Memphis to win. He set a new career high for threes and matched his career high for points, which he set three days prior to this game. A dud against the Thunder was sandwiched between two 37-point outings. Aldama continues to be a consistent producer for Memphis, which is helpful with how many injuries they have dealt with in the frontcourt. Aldama is available in 55 percent of Yahoo! leagues but should be considered a must-roster player at this point.

Spencer has started three straight games for Memphis and has enjoyed success as a playmaker. He is averaging 10.7 assists per game during this stretch, which includes two double-doubles and a new career high for assists in this one. He hasn’t shot the ball as well as he had been as a reserve, but he has played well as a starter. As long as Ja Morant (ankle) remains out, Spencer will be worth rostering.

There weren’t a ton of bright spots for the Wizards as they faded badly in the second half of this one, but Coulibaly drained 3-of-9 from three-point range and managed to drop 14 points in just 23 minutes of action as he continues to work his way back from an ankle injury. The 21-year-old remains the textbook definition of a long-term developmental project but he continues to show flashes of potential as a shooter with the athleticism to impact the game on both ends of the floor.

Sarr matched a season high with four blocks in just his third appearance over the last 10 games since December 1, as a lingering adductor issue has continued to limit his availability. When healthy, the 20-year-old former lottery pick has delivered a strong all-around impact, averaging 18.2 points, 8.6 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 0.7 steals and 2.0 blocks across 29 games.

With Ja Morant and Vince Williams Jr. out due to injury, Spencer has been the Grizzlies’ starting point guard the last two games. After dishing out 11 assists in Saturday’s loss to the Wizards, the second-year guard tallied eight more on Monday. However, unlike Saturday, when he committed two turnovers, that category was an issue against the reigning champs. Spencer committed four on Monday, so the efficiency wasn’t as good as it could be. But that’s no reason for fantasy managers to hop off the bandwagon, especially with Spencer and the Grizzlies visiting Utah on Tuesday.

While his fantasy value has slipped since a hot start to the season, Coward had a productive night for category league managers on Monday. The six assists matched the rookie’s previous high, and managers can also benefit from the rebounds and three-pointers.

Caldwell-Pope’s five three-pointers were a season-high for the veteran guard, who also matched his high point total on Tuesday.

Even with Monday’s showing, leave Caldwell-Pope on the waiver wire.

The 20-year-old youngster drained 4-of-6 from three-point range and shot 63.6 percent from the floor overall in this one.

George was extremely efficient, shooting 62.5 percent from the floor, draining 3-of-7 from beyond the arc to finish just shy of his second 30-point performance of the season. It was his first time reaching the 20-point threshold since November 19. The 22-year-old is averaging an encouraging 15.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks across four games over the past two weeks.

Aldama saw a massive uptick in usage with Brandon Clarke exiting this one after just a handful of minutes with a calf injury. The 24-year-old amassed a season-high 23 shot attempts and shot 65.2 percent from the floor, including knocking down 5-of-9 from three-point range. It would be unrealistic to expect him to go full supernova on a regular basis, but he’s a streaky scorer capable of lighting up opposing teams when he’s in a groove. He’ll see additional minutes next week if Clark winds up requiring an extended absence, especially since Zach Edey is still dealing with an ankle issue.

There isn’t much mystery to McCollum’s game at this advanced stage of his career. He’ll pour in somewhere close to 20 points while chipping in a modest handful of rebounds and assists per-game, but that’s mostly it. The 34-year-old veteran guard offers some value as a low-ceiling, high-floor scoring option but that’s pretty much it these days. He’s been a bit streakier than usual since the start of December but he’s scored at least 22 points in five of eight contests during that span.
