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.

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.

Jerome and Jackson are notable absences for the Grizzlies. With Javon Small (two-way transfer) inactive, the Grizzlies will rely heavily on Walter Clayton Jr. and Cam Spencer on the perimeter. As for Jackson, his absence frees up more opportunities for Taylor Hendricks and Olivier-Maxence Prosper.

Clayton is good to go after missing three games with an ankle injury. As long as the ankle holds up, the rookie should play plenty. Ty Jerome (shoulder) and Javon Small (two-way transfer) are out, so the Grizzlies will lean heavily on Clayton and Cam Spencer.

Edgecombe sliding over in the starting point guard role in Tyrese Maxey’s stead has not resulted in a groundswell of assists. However, he did hit double figures in rebounds for the fourth time on Sunday, and fantasy managers also benefited from the blocked shots and percentages. Even with the 76ers playing three games in Week 21, Edgecombe’s role has raised his fantasy ceiling. Whether he reaches it will depend on his progression as a playmaker for others.

Edwards has started the 76ers’ last three games, and his points tally has increased in each. He finished Sunday’s victory with his first 20-point game since November 11 and second of the season. While the overall stat line was somewhat lean, the few who streamed Edwards aren’t doing much complaining. His place in the starting lineup moving forward depends on Kelly Oubre Jr., who has been out with a sprained left elbow. The 76ers play three games in Week 21, starting with the Nuggets on Tuesday.

Injuries have thrust Grimes into a prominent role within the 76ers’ rotation, and he’s taken advantage more often than not. Since scoring two points in his first start on March 3, the 76ers guard has reached double figures in seven straight, surpassing 20 points in four. Sundays’ performance was the best of the bunch for Grimes, who finished with a season-high 31. With Tyrese Maxey (finger) unlikely to help fantasy managers again this season, Grimes is a must-add in 12-team leagues.

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.

If there’s a positive to Jerome appearing on the injury report, it’s that he is on it for a shoulder injury, not his calf, which delayed the guard’s start to the season.

Edwards missed all three of his three-point attempts, but otherwise had a fantastic game in the win over the Nets on Saturday. The 22-year-old small forward isn’t worth rostering in most fantasy leagues, but should continue to see more opportunities with the 76ers still dealing with injuries.

With the 76ers dealing with a litany of injuries, Grimes continues to start and see heavy usage. The 25-year-old shooting guard took over the game Saturday against the Nets, dropping 28 points on 22 field goal attempts in the victory.

Spencer was back in the lineup after not playing on Thursday, playing 30 minutes as part of the Grizzlies’ starting backcourt. With Scotty Pippen Jr. (toe) done for the season, Spencer has a higher fantasy ceiling moving forward, whether he starts or comes off the bench.

Jerome returned to the Grizzlies’ lineup after sitting out Thursday’s loss to the Mavericks, and he was productive in his time on the floor. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, he was once again limited to 25 minutes, so his fantasy ceiling may be capped as long as that remains the case. Jerome should be rostered in 14-team leagues, and some 12-team leagues as well, but the upside is limited for injury-management reasons.

Having missed the Grizzlies’ last three games with sesamoiditis in his right great toe, Pippen will now undergo a season-ending sesamoidectomy to address the issue. He underwent a similar procedure in October, which delayed the guard’s season debut until early February. Pippen only appeared in ten games this season, finishing with averages of 11.4 points, 2.2 rebounds, 4.7 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 21.2 minutes. With Ty Jerome having recently missed some games, Javon Small and Cam Spencer will have added fantasy value for the rest of this season.

Jackson extended his streak of double-digit scoring performances to 13 games on Thursday, with efficient shooting leading him to finish as one of two Grizzlies with at least 20 points. He missed a couple at the line and was cold from beyond the arc, however, leaving some points on the floor. Jackson hasn’t consistently contributed in many other ways of late, but has shown the potential to be a good rebounder. He’ll likely remain one of the Grizzlies’ key contributors down the stretch of the season.

Wells was active on both ends of the floor on Thursday. On offense, he was primarily a scorer, using the free-throw line and strong efficiency both inside and outside the arc to land good scoring production. He recorded a few stocks on the defensive end to boost his fantasy production before finishing with a solid final line in the loss. Wells continues to shoot the three-pointer well in his minutes. He shouldn’t be considered much more than a streaming option.

Embiid has missed Philadelphia’s last six games with a strained oblique, and five games last month with a knee injury. To say that the 76ers have struggled in the former MVP’s absence would be an understatement, especially since Tyrese Maxey went down with a finger injury.
