While the doubtful tag suggests that Morant won’t play on Sunday, the upgrade is a step in the right direction. Vince Williams Jr. will continue to start as long as Ja is unavailable, with Cam Spencer picking up additional minutes off the bench.

Edey’s night was unspectacular from a fantasy basketball perspective. He didn’t dominate in any singular category, but was solid enough across the board to finish with mediocre production. He played 29 minutes in the game, battled on both ends, and ultimately finished as the Grizzlies’ leader in blocks in the win. They’ll play Sunday against the Trail Blazers, where fantasy managers will hope for more production out of Edey.

Spencer was one of several Grizzlies to produce off the bench on Friday in the win. In 29 minutes, he led all Grizzlies in assists and relied heavily on the three-point shot to finish as one of the team’s top scorers on the evening. The second-year guard out of UConn continues to be one of the NBA’s more productive scorers off the bench in recent weeks. He’s now scored in double figures seven straight times and remains a key contributor to Memphis’ recent strong play.

Vassell hasn’t been able to pour in the points consistently this year, but he’s still more than capable. He’s taken on more offensive responsibility lately, and he has scored at least 20 points in four of his last six games. His seven triples in this game matched his season high. Vassell’s production is down this year, but he has stepped up with Stephon Castle (hip) and Victor Wembanyama (calf) sidelined. As long as they’re out, he should continue to receive a boost in production.

Coward was dominant on Friday for the suddenly surging Grizzlies, who have won six of their last eight games. He used efficient scoring to tally his third 20-point outing of the season, but his most noteworthy contributions came on the glass, where he led all rebounders on the night en route to a new career-high. The rookie forward also tied a career-high in assists before finishing with his fourth double-double of the season. He continues to be a bright spot for the Grizzlies and should remain a productive player in fantasy leagues moving forward.

Fox has been able to provide late-game magic in multiple games recently to help lead the Spurs to wins, but he wasn’t able to get it done in this one. Still, he was able to turn in a strong line. Fox has now scored at least 25 points in four straight games and in nine of his last 10 appearances. He’ll continue to keep the Spurs afloat until Victor Wembanyama (calf) returns to the lineup.

Kornet is set to miss Friday’s game against the Cavaliers with a sore left ankle. Kelly Olynyk should move into the starting lineup with Victor Wembanyama also sidelined while Jeremy Sochan also picks up additional minutes. Olynyk is worth streaming.

While Morant participated in portions of Thursday’s practice, he still has not reached the point where he can play in games. Vince Williams Jr. will continue to fill the void as the starting point guard, with Cam Spencer having added value in deep leagues despite coming off the bench.

Kornet, who has been starting for the injured Victor Wembanyama, is dealing with a sore left ankle. If he’s unable to play on Friday, Kelly Olynyk would benefit the most in terms of playing time. While Jeremy Sochan may also pick up a few more minutes, Olynyk is the player to target as he would likely move into the starting lineup.

Morant has been out for two weeks since suffering his calf strain, but appears to be inching closer to returning. There’s a chance that he could return to play against the Clippers on Friday or the Blazers on Sunday. His return would push Vince Williams Jr. back to the bench and could impact some of Zach Edey’s recent uptick in usage.

Since moving into the Spurs’ starting lineup on November 16 to fill the void left by Victor Wembanyama, Kornet has provided ninth-round value in eight-cat formats. The issue has been the lack of scoring, with the 7-foot-1 center averaging 6.6 points per game. However, Kornet has been a good player to roster for those needing rebounds and blocks. He was productive in those categories in Orlando, with his third block coming as time expired to preserve the victory. Kornet remains a specialist, but the opportunity to start makes him a player worth holding onto in deep leagues.

Since returning to action on November 26, Harper has reached double figures in four of five games, including each of the last four. With Stephon Castle (hip) out, the Spurs’ perimeter rotation is less crowded, which has benefitted the rookie. Harper has been most beneficial in the points, assists and steals categories, so he’s been relegated to deep-league status in redraft formats. But there is a lot to like about his skill set, and Harper has not reached his ceiling.

While Vassell’s season-long fantasy value places him outside the top-100 in eight-cat formats, he has been close to a top-50 player over the past two weeks. De’Aaron Fox has been the biggest beneficiary of the absences of Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle, but Vassell isn’t far behind. And while injuries to key players are never a good thing, those absences may have given Vassell the boost he needed after a slow start to the season.

While Fox did not record any defensive stats and was responsible for seven turnovers, eight-cat managers will undoubtedly accept his stat line. The Spurs guard, whose two free throws with 1.4 seconds remaining gave his team the lead for good, recorded his second 20-point game of the season. With Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle sidelined, more of the offense runs through Fox, which raises his ceiling despite the turnover concerns.

There aren’t as many minutes for Harper as there are for other lottery picks, but he was able to make the most of his time in this game. Since returning from a 10-game absence, Harper has averaged 12.5 points, 2.8 assists and 1.5 steals in just 18 minutes per game. He’ll continue to have his minutes managed for now, and when he returns to a full workload, he’ll still have De’Aaron Fox and Stephon Castle ahead of him in the rotation. Harper is valuable asset in dynasty leagues, but his role may not be large enough for him to truly pop this season.

Fox checked back into the game with 4:07 left in the fourth, with the Spurs down 113-110. From that point on, he had 11 points and an assist to deliver a win for San Antonio. Fox has been able to help the Spurs stay afloat with Victor Wembanyama (calf) sidelined, and he has been able to provide third-round value to this point. He is having his best season from the free throw line and the second-best field goal percentage of his career. Fox will continue to shine as the focal point of this team until Wemby returns, and he’ll have no issues still being a star after that.

It doesn’t happen often, but Barnes is certainly still capable of big offensive nights like this one. He led all scorers in this game while also setting a new season-high for points. Barnes has a better nine-cat value than he typically does, mostly because he is posting career highs in both steals and three-pointers per game. He’s currently available in 83 percent of Yahoo! leagues, but he should be worth rostering in standard leagues as long as Victor Wembanyama remains out.

With all the backcourt injuries in Memphis, the 2024 second-round pick has been able to have a solid season as a reserve. With Ja Morant, Ty Jerome and Scotty Pippen Jr. all sidelined, Spencer has stepped up as a scorer as of late. 21 points were a new season high, and he has scored in double figures in six straight games. Spencer has been shooting the ball at an unsustainable rate, but he should have streaming appeal in deeper formats as long as Morant is sidelined.

Wells had a rough start to the year, but he’s figured things out on offense during this five-game stretch. Over the last five games, he is averaging 19.0 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 3.0 triples per game while shooting 64.4 percent from the floor. This was his third 20-point outing of the season, with all of them coming during this stretch. He’s currently rostered in just 18 percent of Yahoo! leagues but should be comfortably streamed, as long as he continues to produce to this level.

Edey has been on quite the tear in recent weeks. Over the last five games that Edey has completed, he is averaging 17.8 points, 16.2 rebounds and 3.0 blocks per game. It took Edey a few games to get adjusted after missing the start of the year, but he’s been one of the most dominant players in fantasy basketball recently. Some of the matchups have been more favorable, but he has been able to take advantage. At this point, he’s looking like one of the steals of the year.

It has been close to a month since McLaughlin’s last appearance in a game. With the Spurs providing no clarity on a timeline, fantasy managers should assume he’s out indefinitely. And he wasn’t a player who offered much fantasy value when healthy, either.

Landale is dealing with a sore left ankle. While his potential absence would not significantly impact fantasy basketball, it would leave the Grizzlies down an option in the post. His minutes would likely be absorbed by the players currently in the rotation, most notably Santi Aldama. Aldama should already be rostered in most 14-team leagues and some 12-team formats as well.

While Wells wasn’t the most active participant in the Grizzlies’ offense, attempting five shots, he has reached double figures in four straight and five of his last six games. Rostered in 18 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Wells has been a top-100 player in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. He’s shot 53.1 percent from the field during this stretch, which has boosted the wing’s value despite his lack of defensive stats.

While starting point guard Vince Williams Jr. has enjoyed some high-assist nights since filling in for the injured Ja Morant, it has been a struggle for him scoring-wise. That’s where Spencer can be of service to the Grizzlies, and he extended his double-digit scoring streak to five games on Sunday. Williams (2/2/7/1) missed all eight of his shot attempts in Sacramento, but it didn’t do much damage to the Grizzlies thanks to Spencer and five other players scoring in double figures. Spencer isn’t a must-roster player, but he’ll have some value in deep leagues.

Not having Domantas Sabonis available put the Kings in a tough spot when defending Edey. The second-year center was able to go wherever he wanted offensively, shooting 80 percent from the field with most of his makes coming in the restricted area. Add in the rebounds and blocked shots, and this was a great end to Week 6 for managers who have Edey rostered. Since making his season debut, the 7-foot-4 center has provided third-round value in nine-cat formats. The Grizzlies play three games in Week 7, starting with the Spurs on Tuesday.

The Spurs have won five of their last seven games, but they were unable to outscore a red-hot Timberwolves squad without both Victor Wembanyama (calf) and Stephon Castle (hip) in this one. The 27-year-old point guard topped 25 points for the sixth time in his last seven contests. He’s delivered third-round value for fantasy purposes this season, averaging 24.1 points, 3.5 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.4 blocks through 11 games. The Spurs will kick off a four-game week on Teusday against the Grizzlies before road matchups against the Magic, Cavaliers and Pelicans.

McLaughlin has been sidelined for over three weeks, and there isn’t much clarity as to when he’ll return. However, with De’Aaron Fox and Dylan Harper both available, McLaughlin’s role will be minimal when he returns, if he’s part of the rotation at all.

While he didn’t do much scoring on Friday, Edey was dominant on the glass. The 21 rebounds were a season-high for the second-year center, who has been a top-50 player in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. He’s still rostered in 46 percent of Yahoo! leagues, which is too low, given Edey’s production and importance to the Grizzlies. Now would be a good time to hop onto the bandwagon, especially with the Grizzlies facing Sacramento on Sunday.

Williams’ production has not made him a must-roster player with Ja Morant out, but that has more to do with the percentages and turnovers than anything else. Over the past two weeks, he has shot 34.8 percent from the field and 66.7 percent from the foul line while averaging 3.0 turnovers per game. As a result, Williams has not been a top-100 player in nine-cat formats. However, that is not the case in eight-cat. Rostered in 24 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he’s worth picking up ahead of Sunday’s game against the Kings.

While Jackson certainly deserves credit for what he did in the points and three-point categories, what he didn’t do will undoubtedly strike a nerve with some fantasy managers. He did not record any rebounds or defensive stats in Friday’s victory. While Zach Edey dominated the boards for the Grizzlies, grabbing 21 rebounds, Jackson’s lack of production in that category was disappointing. Over the past two weeks, he has averaged just 4.4 rebounds per game, which is why Jackson has not been a top-100 player during this stretch.

While Devin Vassell and Julian Champagnie handled most of the scoring, Fox led the way with 12 assists on Friday. And he’s been highly valuable to fantasy managers recently, providing top-20 value in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. While some may be tempted to sell high, that may not be the best course of action. With Stephon Castle and Victor Wembanyama out, Fox has a higher ceiling, and taking advantage of this would be a good idea.

Having started the last five games due to injuries, Champagnie has recorded double-doubles in three straight. The 25 points he tallied on Friday were a season-high, and Julian has three 20-point games. Rostered in 10 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Champagnie has provided sixth-round value in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. As long as Stephon Castle and Victor Wembanyama remain out, he’s worth streaming in deep leagues.

Vassell put on a show Friday night, with his hot shooting pushing the Spurs into the NBA Cup quarterfinals. Not only did he record his first 30-point game of the season, but this was also the third time he’s scored at least 20. The absences of Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle give Vassell more room to expand his influence on offense, and he’s taken advantage of the opportunity. The Spurs visit Minnesota in their final game of Week 6 on Sunday.

Following a 10-game absence, Harper’s return to the lineup was uneventful. The rookie guard played only 17 minutes off the bench and shot the ball inefficiently during his time on the floor. He was averaging 14.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 4.6 assists in 25.8 minutes per game over the first five games of the season before getting hurt against the Suns on November 2. With De’Aaron Fox back in the lineup and Stephon Castle’s return likely not too far away, it’s hard to predict how much of an impact Harper will make from a fantasy basketball standpoint moving forward. However, his ceiling remains high.

Vassell was San Antonio’s second-best scorer on Wednesday, finishing as one of two Spurs to reach the 20-point mark. He found his scoring production by way of effective three-point shooting, while also being efficient inside the arc. The scoring total tied a season high and marked his seventh straight game scoring in double figures. Vassell’s only other area of impact from a fantasy basketball standpoint came as a rebounder.

Fox erupted for his highest scoring performance of the season on Wednesday. The three-point shot worked in his favor, as free-throw production was also a key in his scoring total. The near-40-point outing also marked the sixth game in a row that the lefty guard has scored at least 24 points. Additionally, he finished as the Spurs’ leader in assists and came up two dimes short of the double-double. He’s integrated himself into the rotation nicely after missing the start of the season due to injury.

Less than a week removed from dishing out 15 assists against the Kings, Williams recorded a new career-high in that category on Wednesday. He didn’t do much scoring and was responsible for six turnovers, but the assists, rebounds and “stocks” meant that Williams managers didn’t lose out on value. Rostered in 23 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he has provided top-100 fantasy value over the past week. The Grizzlies play two more games during Week 6, and Vince is worth a look with Ja Morant sidelined.

Two nights removed from recording his first 20-point game of the season, Wells dropped 25 points in New Orleans. The sudden scoring surge is an excellent development for the Grizzlies, who are still playing without Ja Morant. While Cedric Coward (12/9/4/0/1) remains the superior fantasy option, Wells has been a sixth-round player in nine-cat formats over the past week. Hopefully, he can build on the last two games, but consistency has been an issue for Wells this season.

Edey matched his season-high in rebounds and notched his first 20-point game on Wednesday. The Pelicans struggled to find an answer for him offensively, as Edey was able to hover around the paint for most of the night. He’s only played in six games thus far, but the fantasy returns are promising. We’ll see what happens once Ja Morant returns from injury, but Edey should be a valuable center throughout the season.

Not only were Jackson’s 27 points a game-high, but they were also the most he’s scored in a game this season. While the rebounding production remains disappointing, JJJ’s overall stat line in Wednesday’s overtime victory was solid. The good news for Jackson managers is that he’s closing in on top-100 value. However, no one expected him to be that low in the rankings when the season began. The Grizzlies continue their road trip with games against the Clippers and Kings to end Week 6.

Edey is back in the lineup after a head injury on Monday against the Nuggets forced him to exit after only six minutes. He’ll likely return to the starting lineup for the sixth time in as many games.
