Memphis Grizzlies guard John Konchar (heel) will not suit up for Friday's contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. The 28-year-old has not played since March 22 and this will be his tenth straight game he will be out as he tries to recover from plantar fasciitis in his right heel. There are only two games left on the schedule for the injury-plagued Grizzlies, and there is a good chance Konchar will not play again this year. Memphis will likely have a tight rotation of young players to close out the season, including GG Jackson II, Jake LaRavia, and Scotty Pippen Jr.

Memphis Grizzlies guard John Konchar (heel) will not play in Friday's game versus the Detroit Pistons. He will miss his sixth straight game as he continues to be hampered by plantar fasciitis in his right heel. Konchar last played against the Spurs on March 22, and it is unclear when he will return to action. Injuries are nothing new for the Grizzlies this season, and Friday will be another tough game, as Desmond Bane (back), Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps), and Santi Aldama (foot) are already ruled out for Friday, too. Memphis will likely continue to count on Jake LaRavia and GG Jackson II to take on prominent roles.

Memphis Grizzlies forward/guard John Konchar (heel) is doubtful for Wednesday's game versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Konchar is expected to miss his fourth consecutive game due to a right plantar fasciitis. Memphis' roster dealing with many more injuries saw Konchar playing 30 minutes per game over his last ten games, with averages of 5.7 points and 4.4 rebounds. Luke Kennard, GG Jackson II, and Scotty Pippen Jr. are expected to see more minutes in the likely absence of Konchar. The reserve will attempt to return before the season ends, further cementing his role on a team planning to achieve bigger goals next season.
