While the doubtful tag suggests that Clarke won’t be available on Monday, the fact that he has a chance to play is a step in the right direction. With Zach Edey (ankle) out for at least four weeks, there will be room for Clarke in the rotation once he’s able to play.

This announcement from the Grizzlies means that Clarke will return between December 23 and January 13. Clark underwent a procedure in September, which has prevented him from suiting up this season. Jaren Jackson Jr., Santi Aldama and Jock Landale will continue to fill the post minutes until Zach Edey (ankle) and Clarke return, though Edey’s return should be much earlier.

Remaining healthy has been an issue for Clarke throughout his NBA career, with the former first-round pick matching his career-high in games played last season (64). His most recent season ended in March due to a strained right PCL, but that injury had healed well before his most recent issue arose. According to the Grizzlies, Clarke has experienced synovitis in his right knee and will undergo an arthroscopic procedure. A return timeline will be announced following the procedure. While Clarke’s absence won’t significantly impact fantasy basketball, it does leave Memphis even more shorthanded, as Jaren Jackson Jr. (toe) and Zach Edey (ankle) were already out.

Clarke injured his knee during a March 19 game against the Trail Blazers. He has since been diagnosed with a high-grade right PCL sprain and will not play again this season. Clarke’s absence frees up additional minutes for Zach Edey and Santi Aldama, who were already prominent members of the Grizzlies rotation. John Konchar may also pick up playing time due to his rebounding ability, but Edey and Aldama are the players who fantasy managers should target (if they’re available).

Clarke injured his knee on Wednesday after playing just five minutes, and it will keep him sidelined against the Clippers. Santi Aldama, Zach Edey and John Konchar all could take on extra minutes with Clarke sidelined. Aldama led all three in both production and minutes on Wednesday.

Clarke checked into Wednesday’s game with 7:30 remaining in the first quarter and exited a little over five minutes later with a sore right knee. The Grizzlies announced that he was doubtful to return, and he did not see any more action. John Konchar (3/3/2/1/1 with one three-pointer in 20 minutes) started the second half in place of Zach Edey, and he may have the most to gain regarding playing time if Clarke remains sidelined.

Clarke and Williams have been downgraded from questionable to out, leaving the Grizzlies without two of their many options off the bench. John Konchar, Jay Huff or Marvin Bagley III may enter the rotation, but none will likely get the minutes needed to provide reliable streaming value. However, that would change if Ja Morant or Desmond Bane were also ruled out.

Clarke is dealing with a laceration on his lip. While it doesn’t sound like much, the 28-year-old power forward is listed as questionable and seems like he has a legitimate chance of missing Saturday’s game. While Clarke has a significant bench role for the Grizzlies, he doesn’t have fantasy value unless he’s put in the starting lineup for a spot start.
