Grizzlies' Zach Edey: Productive off bench in return
Edey (ankle) contributed 13 points (6-8 FG, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 116-110 loss to the Lakers.
Edey was back in action after missing the Grizzlies' last 12 games with a left ankle sprain, and though he came off the bench, he saw more minutes than starter Brandon Clarke (13) and fellow backup center Jay Huff (six minutes). While his playing time may remain somewhat volatile overall due to matchups, if Edey can routinely approach the 24 minutes he received Saturday, he'll likely be worth holding in most fantasy leagues. The rookie is currently averaging 11.3 points, 7.1 boards, 1.0 blocks, 0.9 steals and 0.8 assists in 20.4 minutes per game while shooting 61.9 percent from the field over his 15 appearances.

Grizzlies' Jaren Jackson: Efficient in loss Sunday
Jackson accumulated 25 points (9-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Sunday's 116-110 loss to the Lakers.
Jackson was one of the best players for Memphis in this game, which isn't a small task considering he was matched up with the frontcourt of Rui Hachimura and Anthony Davis most of the time. Jackson has scored at least 20 points in each of his last four appearances, a span in which he's averaging 23.3 points and 6.3 rebounds per game while shooting 54.7 percent from the field.

Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Stuffs stat sheet Sunday
Morant registered 20 points (6-21 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 6-8 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and three steals over 31 minutes during Sunday's 116-110 loss to the Lakers.
On the surface, Morant had a strong performance Monday and delivered another impressive stat line. However, he had major struggles when dealing with Max Christie as his primary defender. Morant finished with more field-goal attempts than points scored, and he also committed a season-high seven turnovers. Fantasy managers will surely live with that lack of efficiency, though, as long as he continues to light up the stat sheet regularly.

Grizzlies' Marcus Smart: Available Sunday
Smart (knee) will play during Sunday's game against the Lakers.
Smart came into Sunday's game with left knee soreness, but he will be able to play through it. Smart has produced underwhelming numbers of late, averaging 7.8 points, 3.4 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 22.8 minutes per game over his last five appearances.

Grizzlies' Jay Huff: Good to go
Huff (knee) is available for Sunday's game against the Lakers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Huff carried a questionable tag into Sunday's contest due to left knee soreness, but he will officially be active. Huff could see a decreased role going forward due to Zach Edey (ankle) being back in the lineup.

Grizzlies' Zach Edey: Making return Sunday
Edey (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Lakers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.
Edey has missed the last 12 games due to a left ankle sprain, but he will return to the lineup Sunday. Considering the amount of time he has missed, it wouldn't be surprising to see Edey on a minute restriction as he returns to form.

Grizzlies' Jay Huff: Questionable to play Sunday
Huff is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lakers due to left knee soreness.
Huff could be in danger of missing a game for the first time this season. The big man has seen steady minutes off the bench for Memphis, but he isn't playing enough to be relevant in most fantasy formats. He's averaging 9.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and 0.7 blocks per game over his last 10 appearances, all of them coming off the bench.

Grizzlies' Zach Edey: Upgraded to questionable
Edey (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lakers.
Edey hasn't stepped on the hardwood since Nov. 17, but the questionable tag suggests he might have a shot at returning Sunday following a 12-game absence. Edey has started in nine of his 14 appearances this season, averaging 11.1 points, 6.9 rebounds and 1.0 blocks per game.

Grizzlies' Marcus Smart: Questionable for Sunday
Smart is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lakers due to left knee soreness.
Smart logged 23 minutes in the 135-119 win over the Nets on Friday, but his status is uncertain for Sunday due to this injury. Smart has suited up in nine games in a row, however, so he might have a decent chance at keeping that streak alive. He's averaging 10.8 points, 2.3 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.7 steals per game in that nine-game span.

Grizzlies' Jaren Jackson: Strong two-way showing Friday
Jackson closed Friday's 135-119 victory over the Nets with 20 points (7-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and five steals across 32 minutes.
Jackson has yet to record a double-double this season, but there's no question the big man has been playing at a high level on both ends of the court. He's stepped up when tasked to embrace a more significant role on offense and remains a disruptive presence on the defensive side of the ball as well. Jackson's uptick in his scoring numbers is noticeable, and it gives him a massive boost to his fantasy value. He's scored at least 20 points in three straight games and five of his previous seven appearances. He's averaging 20.7 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 2.0 blocks and 1.3 assists per game since the beginning of December.

Grizzlies' Desmond Bane: Goes for 21 points Friday
Bane ended Friday's 135-119 win over the Nets with 21 points (8-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and one steal across 28 minutes.
Bane returned from a one-game absence Friday, and even though Ja Morant was the one who carried the team on offense, Bane certainly made his presence felt. He reached the 20-point mark for the first time since a Nov. 20 win over the 76ers, and he extended his streak of double-digit scoring performances to five games. Bane remains a regular starter for the Grizzlies when healthy, and while that role is enough to make him relevant, it's not a secret that his numbers have been trending in the wrong direction. He's averaging 14.8 points per game, representing his lowest mark -- by a sizable margin -- since his rookie year. He's also shooting a career-worst 32.4 percent from three-point range.

Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Comes close to triple-double
Morant finished with 28 points (10-19 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-8 FT), seven rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Friday's 135-119 victory over the Nets.
Morant returned to the starting lineup after a one-game absence and did it with an eye-popping performance, carrying the Grizzlies to victory with an outstanding effort on both ends of the court. Morant finished just three rebounds away from recording what would've been his second triple-double of the season. Morant has been on a tear of late, surpassing the 25-point mark in four of his last six contests and averaging 24.2 points, 7.5 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals per game in that stretch.

Grizzlies' Marcus Smart: Not starting Friday
Smart is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Nets.
The Grizzlies will have Ja Morant (back) and Desmond Bane (toe) back for this matchup against Brooklyn, so Smart will head back to the bench. The veteran is averaging 11.4 points, 5.1 assists and 2.7 rebounds per game when deployed off the bench this season.

Grizzlies' Scotty Pippen: Back to bench role Friday
Pippen is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Nets.
Ja Morant is back and starting after a one-game absence, so Pippen will return to his regular second-unit role in this contest. Pippen is averaging 8.3 points, 3.1 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game when coming off the bench this season.

Grizzlies' Zach Edey: Out again Friday
Edey (ankle) has officially been ruled out for Friday's game versus the Nets.
No surprise here, as Edey was originally deemed doubtful for the contest. The rookie big man has been sidelined since Nov. 17, but he appears to be inching toward a return. His next opportunity to return to the court will come Sunday in Los Angeles versus the Lakers.

Grizzlies' Luke Kennard: Cleared to play for Friday
Kennard (illness) is off the injury report for Friday's game against the Nets.
Kennard is slated to return from a three-game absence due to an illness. Over his last 10 outings, the 28-year-old swingman has averaged 6.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.1 assists across 19.4 minutes per contest.
