Mashack

Hendricks, who did not play in Monday’s loss to the Cavaliers, is available and will replace Olivier-Maxence Prosper in the starting lineup. The other changes to the lineup are Mashack and Okani, who step in for Cam Spencer and Lucas Williamson. Spencer is not available, but Williamson should play significant minutes off the bench.

Mashack is back after a two-game absence to face the Nuggets. The rookie guard has seen an increased playing role over the second half of the season. He’ll have a chance to score in double figures on Wednesday for the third time in his last five games.

Mashack has missed Memphis’ last two games, with his absence contributing to increased playing time for Dariq Whitehead and Adama Bal. Even if Mashack returns on Wednesday, minutes won’t be an issue for Whitehead or Bal.

Mashack remains in concussion protocol and will miss a second consecutive game. Dariq Whitehead and Adama Bal are two players who have logged rotation minutes recently, and that should remain the case on Monday.

Mashack is in the league’s concussion protocol and will miss at least one game. He logged 14 minutes off the bench in Friday’s loss to the Raptors. Dariq Whitehead, Lucas Williamson and Adama Bal should play plenty due to the Grizzlies’ many injuries.

Already without Ty Jerome and Cam Spencer, the Grizzlies won’t have Clayton for Friday’s game, either. Jahmai Mashack and Javon Small will have important roles due to the Grizzlies’ limited depth, and Dariq Whitehead could make his debut after being inked to a 10-day contract.

Mashack matched his season-high in points on Saturday, and he did so while shooting 66.7 percent from the field. For category league managers, the overall stat line was somewhat lean. However, this was an impressive performance for the rookie, especially because Saturday’s game was Mashack’s first after a six-game absence. As a two-way contract player, Mashack is not a lock to be available for every game left on Memphis’ schedule, which makes it challenging to trust him in fantasy.

While Clayton played 23 minutes in Friday’s loss to the Rockets, Mashack has missed the Grizzlies’ last six games. The former’s availability is likely to have a greater impact on fantasy basketball, but neither player qualifies as a must-add to lineups.

While Hendricks started Friday’s loss to the Rockets and played 30 minutes, Mashack was not available due to a sprained ankle. If Hendricks can’t play, his absence would open a spot in the starting lineup. As for Mashack, there may be additional minutes available on the perimeter since Ty Jerome is out and Cam Spencer is doubtful.

Mashack will miss a sixth straight game, which isn’t a surprise after he was initially listed as doubtful. That may open up a few extra minutes off the bench, but it won’t drastically alter the Grizzlies’ rotation.
