Memphis Grizzlies

The Memphis Grizzlies have listed center Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps) as doubtful for Wednesday's contest versus the Charlotte Hornets. Right quad tendonitis cost Jackson three games from March 1 to March 4, and the big man is expected to sit out his second straight matchup and the second leg of Memphis' back-to-back with the issue after missing Tuesday's home victory over the Washington Wizards. The 23-43 Grizzlies have little incentive at this stage of the season to rush back the reigning Defensive Player of the Year ahead of Saturday's meeting with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Should Santi Aldama (elbow) join Jackson on the sidelines, third-stringer Trey Jemison would be the last traditional big man standing and likely dominate center minutes after racking up a career-high 24 points against Washington.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward John Konchar (ankle) is regarded as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against Washington. He might have to skip a second consecutive game due to a sore right ankle. Konchar has started each of his last three games and would be in a position to play in the first unit again on Tuesday if he can return. Vince Williams Jr. (knee) will remain out of the lineup, and Jordan Goodwin (Achilles) isn't fully healthy either, carrying a questionable tag. Memphis' injuries have made Jake LaRavia the flavor of the month. The 22-year-old is averaging 14.5 points and 5.2 rebounds for March.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Vince Williams Jr. (knee) won't play against Washington on Tuesday. He has been taken out of the lineup with left patellar tendon soreness. With Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps) also unavailable, this could again be a crush spot for GG Jackson II, who led the team with a career-high 30 points on Sunday versus Oklahoma City. Luke Kennard could also have a large say in the offense, particularly with the team short of backcourt options.

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps) won't face the Wizards on Tuesday. The team has ruled him out for the contest with right quadriceps tendonitis. Jackson Jr. steps out of the lineup after playing in three consecutive games, and he will miss a very good opportunity to stuff the stat sheet, as Washington has been awful against opposing bigs throughout the campaign. Trey Jemison could slide back into the starting unit without Jackson, while there's also a possibility of the team giving an extended look to Wenyen Gabriel, who's on a 10-day contract. Santi Aldama should get some burn at the center position as well, and he's by far the best fantasy option.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Jordan Goodwin (Achilles) is stepping out of the lineup on Sunday versus the Thunder. He was already doubtful for the contest, and the team has now officially ruled him out due to left Achilles soreness. Goodwin has been a starter for all of his last five appearances with the Grizzlies. On Sunday, the team will have a new-look starting five, with Luke Kennard, GG Jackson II, and LaRavia joining Santi Aldama and Jaren Jackson Jr. Goodwill will get his first chance to return on Tuesday versus Washington, although the doubtful designation is a sign that he might not be close to being game-ready.
