Memphis Grizzlies DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (elbow) will face the Warriors on Wednesday. The 23-year-old had 14 points, nine rebounds, two steals, and one block in Monday's loss to the Sacramento Kings. Yet, he popped up on the injury report because of his ailing elbow. However, Aldama is good to go, and with Memphis still down several players due to injury, he remains a viable fantasy option for all formats.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Vince Williams Jr. (knee) cannot play against the Warriors on Wednesday. He continues to deal with a left patellar issue that will keep him sidelined for the sixth straight game. There is no timetable for when he will return. For now, GG Jackson could see plenty of minutes while John Konchar and Jake LaRavia could see more action. Before getting hurt, the 23-year-old played well and was one of the critical players on the team's offense. Desmond Bane's return will take away shots from Williams Jr. once he is healthy.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Scotty Pippen Jr. (shin) will remain sidelined for Monday's meeting with the Kings. He couldn't play on Saturday versus OKC due to shin soreness and will continue to sit against Sacramento with the same issue. Pippen Jr. has played well when he's been available, but that hasn't happened too often lately. He had just missed a month of action with a back problem before hurting his left shin. With Desmond Bane now back in the lineup, there will be fewer opportunities for Pippen Jr., whose number of appearances has also been affected by his two-way contract.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Luke Kennard (personal) won't be in the lineup on Monday versus Sacramento. After playing in seven of the last eight games, Kennard needs to take some time off for personal reasons. The sweet-shooting 27-year-old has been a regular starter lately, meaning another change in the first unit is coming on Monday for the Grizzlies. John Konchar is the likeliest player to step into the role. However, fantasy managers shouldn't rush into picking up Konchar, as he tends to drift through games with his contributions not showing up on the box score.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Vince Williams Jr. (knee) is considered doubtful to play against Sacramento on Monday. He continues to deal with a left patellar issue that has kept him sidelined for four games. Before getting hurt, the 23-year-old was riding great momentum as one of the focal points of the team's offense. Desmond Bane's return to action will take away shots from Williams Jr. once he's eventually ready to return to the court. It looks like it won't be the case on Monday, which gives GG Jackson II and Jake LaRavia further opportunities to impress. Monday's matchup is a great one for the pair against a run-and-gun team that doesn't defend well.
