Pelicans' Trey Jemison: Sticks in rotation Tuesday
Rotowire
Jemison notched two points (1-2 FG), one rebound, one assist and two steals in 17 minutes during Tuesday's 132-91 loss to the Mavericks.
Jemison played double-digit minutes for the sixth time in the past seven games, highlighting the fact that the Pelicans are battling a number of injuries to key players. Over the past two weeks, Jemison is averaging 4.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 combined steals and blocks in 15.1 minutes per game. It has been a surprising development but one that is almost certainly going to end once the team starts to get their primary pieces back on the floor.
The Pelicans claimed Jemison off waivers Friday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Jemison was waived by the Grizzlies earlier this week but will now have the opportunity to compete for minutes in the Pelicans' frontcourt rotation. In 2023-24, Jemison averaged 6.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 assists in 23.0 minutes across 25 regular-season appearances.

Rotowire
Jemison recorded eight points (3-5 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 22 minutes during Monday's 128-103 loss to the Nuggets.
Jemison returned to the lineup after sitting out against the Spurs on Friday. The Grizzlies continue to tinker with their lineup on a nightly basis, making it hard to trust anyone when it comes to sustainable fantasy value. At this point, it might be a situation to avoid, barring the ability to add players right up until the opening tip.

Grizzlies' Trey Jemison: Not starting Saturday
Rotowire
Jemison is not in the starting lineup to face the Thunder on Saturday.
Jemison recorded 38 points, 12 rebounds and four blocks in a two-game span (both starts) in a back-to-back set against Washington and Charlotte on March 12 and March 13. However, he'll move back to the bench with Jaren Jackson (qudriceps) being ready to return to the court. Jemison is averaging 2.7 points and 2.9 rebounds per game when deployed off the bench.
Jemison logged 24 points (11-13 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two blocks over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 109-97 win over Washington.
With Jaren Jackson (quad) sidelined, Jemison started at center and scored a career-high 24 points in the win, more than he had managed in his previous four games combined. It appears he will feature in the rotation moving forward, but the Grizzlies are by no means running out a predictable lineup on a nightly basis. With no guarantees he will suit up Wednesday, he makes for a tough hold in standard formats.

Grizzlies' Trey Jemison: Offers little in return
Rotowire
Jemison finished Friday's 99-92 loss to Atlanta with five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and one steal across 16 minutes.
Jemison returned to action Friday, failing to produce anything of note. He has been in and out of the rotation over the past month, playing in four of the past 10 games. On a team that has no shot at the postseason, Jemison simply cannot be trusted as a reliable fantasy asset.

Grizzlies' Trey Jemison: Headed to G League
Rotowire
The Grizzlies assigned Jemison to the Memphis Hustle of the G League on Wednesday.
Jemison has started in each of his last three NBA appearances but continues to split time with the Grizzlies and the Hustle. The 23-year-old big man is approaching his limit of active games allotted with the Grizzlies as a two-way player, but on the occasions that he's active, expect him to be included in the rotation.

Grizzlies' Trey Jemison: Strong game in limited minutes
Rotowire
Jemison produced 10 points (5-6 FG), seven rebounds and one block across 19 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 106-102 victory over Brooklyn.
Jemison has started in his last three appearances for the Grizzlies, but it's also worth noting he hasn't played in four of the team's six games since the end of the All-Star break. The lack of an established role hurts his upside, though Jemison can be an effective two-way asset for the Grizzlies if given enough minutes. Until the minutes are there consistently, however, it's better to leave Jemison on the wire regardless of the format.

Grizzlies' Trey Jemison: Starting against Portland
Rotowire
Jemison will start at center in Friday's game versus Portland.
Jaren Jackson (quadriceps) is sitting out Friday, so Jemison should be in store for significant playing time as his replacement. The rookie hasn't appeared in a contest for Memphis since Feb. 15, as he has a limited number of games that he can appear in for the rest of the season while he's signed to a two-way contract. Over his seven appearances in February, Jemison averaged 5.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.4 blocks, 1.0 assists and 0.6 steals in 19.9 minutes.
