Aldama continues to sit due to a right knee injury, and it is unknown when (or if) he’ll be healthy enough to return. Memphis started Taylor Hendricks and Olivier-Maxence Prosper in Saturday’s loss to the Heat, going without a true center due to Lawson Lovering’s 10-day contract expiring the night prior.

Aldama has appeared in one game since January 26, with the Grizzlies still listing his injury as right knee injury management. Kyle Anderson was the starting center for Memphis’ final two games before the All-Star break, and he may be asked to take on that role once again on Friday.

Aldama continues to be listed on the injury report due to right knee injury management, with Wednesday’s game being the eighth in the last nine that he’s missed. Due to Memphis’s lack of healthy post players, Kyle Anderson has been the starting center for the last two games. In that role, he’s worth streaming in deep leagues.

Aldama will remain out for another game as he continues to manage a right knee injury. Due to their lack of healthy centers, the Grizzlies started Olivier-Maxence Prosper (Friday) and Kyle Anderson (Saturday) at the five in their two games in Portland. One of those two is likely to start against the Warriors, but both are worth a look in deep leagues out of necessity.

Sitting out Friday’s loss to the Trail Blazers did not ensure that Aldama would be available for Saturday’s rematch. He’ll miss both games for right knee injury management. Olivier-Maxence Prosper moved into the starting lineup on Friday and will likely remain in that role. Out of necessity, he’s worth considering as a deep-league streamer.

Friday’s game is the first of two in as many nights between the Grizzlies and Trail Blazers. Given the time he’s missed with a right knee issue, Aldama sitting out one of the games was expected. Due to the players traded, Memphis will be light on frontcourt options on Friday. Look for GG Jackson and Olivier-Maxence Prosper to play plenty.

Aldama is back after a four-game absence. While his minutes will be restricted, the Grizzlies are playing their first game since trading Jaren Jackson Jr. and Jock Landale. And with Zach Edey still out with an ankle injury, Aldama is worth slotting into lineups despite the restriction.

Monday’s game will be the fourth straight game Aldama has missed due to right knee injury management. Jock Landale has moved into the starting lineup, and more minutes have become available for GG Jackson.

Counting Wednesday, Aldama has missed three of the Grizzlies’ last four games. Either John Konchar or Jock Landale will move into the starting lineup, but the latter offers a much higher fantasy ceiling, whether he starts or comes off the bench.

Back in the Grizzlies’ lineup after a two-game absence, Aldama played 27 minutes on Monday. The production was solid, and he’s now reached double figures in four of his last five appearances. Jock Landale (personal) being away from the team could have raised Aldama’s fantasy ceiling, but the playing time did not receive a significant boost. That said, he should be rostered in standard leagues as long as the Grizzlies are without starting center Zach Edey (ankle).

Sunday’s game will be the third that Aldama has missed with a sore right knee. Jock Landale started Friday’s loss to the Pelicans and had one of his best games of the season, tallying 24 points and 11 rebounds as part of a complete stat line. He’s worth streaming while Aldama is out.

Since scoring a career-high 37 points in a December 23 win over the Jazz, Aldama had not recorded more than 15 points in any game. That changed on Thursday in Berlin, as the Grizzlies forward/center hit all four of his three-point attempts. Zach Edey’s (ankle) absence has opened up additional opportunities for Aldama. Still, the impact has been muted since Jock Landale (6/5/1/1/1 with one three-pointer) has been the replacement in the starting lineup.

Despite coming off the bench, Aldama continues to provide reliable fantasy value. Over the past two weeks, the Grizzlies forward has been a seventh-round player in eight-cat formats. Aldama didn’t have the best night shooting the basketball, but the rebounds and assists compensated for that. The Grizzlies play four games in Week 12, and he’ll be worth rostering for the foreseeable future, especially with Zach Edey (ankle) sidelined.

Aldama has been a key reserve for the Grizzlies this season, playing well enough to merit being rostered in some 12-team formats. If he’s unable to play on Sunday, Aldama’s minutes will likely be absorbed by Jock Landale and GG Jackson.

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.
