Love will miss a second consecutive game for rest reasons, with Taylor Hendricks and Cody Williams being the players most likely to benefit in terms of playing time. However, neither is worth the streaming risk in most fantasy leagues.

Injured during Friday’s win over the Pistons, Bailey will miss a second straight game with a strained left hip flexor. Brice Sensabaugh started Saturday’s win over the Spurs and played 34 minutes. With a similar workload likely for Tuesday, he would be worth streaming on a four-game night.

George has yet to miss a game this season, but that could change on Tuesday. If he does not play, more minutes open up for Isaiah Collier and Walter Clayton Jr., with the former being the more likely replacement in the starting lineup.

Landale has missed Memphis’ last two games with a strained right calf, opening up rotation minutes for Christian Koloko. While the playing time has been there, Koloko’s production has not been good enough to merit streaming. If Santi Aldama isn’t available on the waiver wire, fantasy managers should look to other teams for frontcourt help.

Caldwell-Pope was forced to leave Sunday’s loss to the Wizards after playing 11 minutes with a sore right hamstring. He won’t play on Tuesday, freeing up additional minutes for fellow reserve GG Jackson. Olivier-Maxence Prosper could also be in the rotation, but the Grizzlies may send him to their G League affiliate instead.

Williams will miss a sixth consecutive game due to left patellar tendinitis. His absence has left Cam Spencer to handle the backup point guard duties, and he has been more valuable than Vince in fantasy leagues even when Ja Morant has been out.

Already a solid fantasy option, Aldama’s ceiling has been raised recently due to injuries to Zach Edey and Jock Landale. Over the past week, he has provided seventh-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats, exceeding his season-long value by a few rounds. Aldama recorded his fourth double-double on Sunday, and the four steals were a season-high. Rostered in 46 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he’s worth a look in more 12-team formats, even with the Grizzlies playing three games in Week 11.
MEM • Guard • #12

While the stat line did not include any rebounds, steals or blocked shots, what Morant did provide to fantasy managers was encouraging. The Grizzlies’ point guard was efficient as a scorer and playmaker, shooting 50 percent from the field and finishing with an assist-to-turnover ratio of over 2-to-1. Morant is still on a minutes restriction, and it’s unknown when that will change. However, he’s still capable of offering value despite not hitting 30 minutes.

Jackson has picked up the production since returning from an ankle injury that sidelined him for two games in late November. After scoring 20 points or more in three of his first 15 games, the Grizzlies forward has accomplished that feat in eight of his last 15, including two with 30 or more. In addition to his second 30-point game of the season, Jackson recorded a complete stat line. Over the past two weeks, he has provided top-10 per-game value in eight- and nine-cat formats. The Grizzlies open a three-game Week 11 on Tuesday against the 76ers.

After playing 11 first-half minutes, Caldwell-Pope is unlikely to return due to a sore right hamstring. His absence will likely mean more minutes for Cam Spencer and GG Jackson, with the former already offering value as Ja Morant’s backup.

Initially questionable for Sunday’s game, Landale is trending toward not being available due to a sore right calf. If he’s unable to play, Christian Koloko will remain in the Grizzlies’ rotation. He played 28 minutes in Friday’s win over the Bucks, but Koloko was not productive enough to merit streaming.

While the opportunities to provide fantasy-relevant value have been inconsistent, Clayton has shown the ability to step up when his name is called. The rookie didn’t miss a shot on Saturday, with the 17 points being three shy of his season-high. Clayton isn’t at the point where he can be relied on in redraft leagues, but there could come a time later in the season when that changes.

Markkanen continues to light it up as a scorer, having tallied at least 26 points in each of his last five appearances. The Jazz forward shot the cover off the ball in San Antonio, and he’s made nearly 52 percent of his attempts over the past two weeks. During this stretch, Markkanen has provided top-5 per-game value in eight-cat formats. At this point, the only thing that could stop him is Utah’s front office prioritizing its draft lottery odds over team success.

One night removed from capping a 31-point game with a game-winning shot, George came through with another excellent performance. Over the past two weeks, he has provided top-10 per-game value in eight-cat formats according to Basketball Monster. Playing on a team that has a poor record can make it difficult to work one’s way into the postseason awards conversation. However, George’s name should come up when discussing the most improved players in the NBA this season. Utah begins a three-game Week 11 at home on Tuesday against the Celtics.

The Jazz won’t have Ace Bailey for Saturday’s game, as he suffered a left hip flexor strain during Friday’s win over the Pistons. He’s been replaced in the lineup by Sensabaugh, who scored 20 points against Detroit. While he isn’t a must-stream player now, there may come a point later in the season when Sensabaugh needs to be rostered.

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.

Love had 14 points and three three-pointers in Friday’s win over the Pistons. The 37-year-old power forward has more than earned a night off. Kyle Filipowski and Taylor Hendricks could see more minutes in Love’s absence against the Spurs.

Bailey left Friday’s win over the Pistons with a left hip flexor strain and will subsequently miss Saturday’s game against the Spurs. If the injury turns out to be serious, Brice Sensabaugh, who dropped 20 points Friday, is worth rostering in deeper formats.
UTA • Forward • #28

While Sensabaugh has logged consistent rotation minutes since mid-November, his role may expand in the aftermath of Friday’s victory. Ace Bailey exited during the second quarter with a left hip flexor strain, and that may rule him out for a bit. If so, Sensabaugh is well-positioned to provide additional value. The third-year wing matched his season-high with 20 points and finished a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. If he starts on Saturday against the Spurs, Sensabaugh would be worth the streaming risk in deep leagues.

While Nurkić has recorded a double-double in each of his last two appearances, he had a day off on Tuesday because it was the second game of a back-to-back. With the Jazz visiting the Spurs on Saturday, there’s a good chance the veteran center won’t play. With Kevin Love (14/5/3/1/1 with three three-pointers) playing 16 minutes off the bench, Saturday’s game may be one in which Kyle Filipowski, Taylor Hendricks and even Kyle Anderson figure more prominently in the frontcourt rotation.
UTA • Forward-Center • #23

Markkanen has recorded 30 points or more in 11 of the 26 games he’s played this season, including Friday’s two-point victory. Production isn’t the concern right now, but availability is. Markkanen has missed four of Utah’s last eight games, including Tuesday’s loss to the Grizzlies, which was the team’s second game in as many nights. That’s important because the Jazz visit the Spurs on Saturday. Fantasy managers should consider him questionable, with Kyle Filipowski (two points, four rebounds and one steal in 11 minutes) in line to benefit if Markkanen sits.
UTA • Guard • #3

George has been one of the most improved players in the NBA this season, with Friday’s performance rating among his best. Not only did he shoot over 50 percent from the field, but the third-year guard only committed two turnovers. And George’s last play was his most important, as his runner with 2.3 seconds remaining gave Utah the victory. He’s providing third-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats and has shown no signs of slowing down. The Jazz won’t have much time to celebrate their win, as they visit the Spurs on Saturday.
MEM • Guard • #24

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.
MEM • Guard • #12

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.

Bailey exited Friday’s game during the second quarter and has been diagnosed with a left hip flexor strain. While Taylor Hendricks entered the lineup at the time of Bailey’s exit, Brice Sensabaugh may be the Jazz player who benefits the most if the rookie has to miss time. At a minimum, Sensabaugh offers a higher offensive ceiling than Hendricks.

There are two changes to the lineup that began Tuesday’s loss to the Grizzlies. Markkanen and Nurkić are back after not playing against Memphis, with Kevin Love and Kyle Filipowski heading to the bench. Whether he starts or comes off the bench, Filipowski is worth rostering, and his value should only increase once the “silly season” begins.

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.

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.

Hendricks’ offense has prevented him from making an impact for fantasy managers this season, which makes a performance like this one so encouraging. He set a new season high for scoring, which allowed him play a season-high 27 minutes, which led to a new season high for steals. If he can continue to contribute on offense, he’ll get more minutes, which leads to more defensive stats. He’ll look to stay hot against the Pistons on Friday.

With Lauri Markkanen (groin) and Jusuf Nurkić (rest) sidelined, Filipowski returned to the starting unit for this game. It wasn’t enough for Utah to get a win, but he led the Jazz in scoring and matched his season high for both points and rebounds. Filipowski should shine down the stretch of the season, but his value at this point is tied to the availability of Markkanen and Nurkić. When he is given the chance, he is more than capable of nights like this.

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.

Small has been sidelined since early November but will be available to provide much-needed depth in the backcourt. He likely won’t play big minutes, but with Ja Morant sidelined, he should see an opportunity off the bench behind Cam Spencer.

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. Rostered in 31 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Coward has been a 10th-round player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks. The Grizzlies conclude their road trip on Tuesday against the Jazz.

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 Jazz are a young team so even in a blowout, George, the 22-year-old point guard, played 34 minutes. He scored 20 points, which was his lowest output in five games, and was just two rebounds and three assists shy of a triple-double. George’s run of excellent play continues. He’s becoming one of the biggest fantasy steals of the season. The Jazz are back on the floor Tuesday against the Grizzlies.
