Johnny

Davis

Stevens, who finished the 2023-24 season with the Grizzlies, is returning to Memphis. He was in training camp with the Pistons before being waived and joining their G League affiliate. To make room for Stevens, the Grizzlies are waiving Johnny Davis.

Davis has yet to make his Grizzlies debut after being traded to Memphis as part of a multi-team deal on February 6. His continued absence does not impact fantasy basketball, but it’s fair to wonder if he’ll eventually join Memphis.

Davis was acquired from the Wizards as part of a multi-team deal on trade deadline day (Thursday), but he has yet to join his new team. The Grizzlies have not provided any details, and it’s unknown when that will change. Davis did not offer much fantasy value in Washington, and Memphis’ perimeter depth means that will likely remain the case when (or if) he joins the Grizzlies.

Davis has not made his Grizzlies debut after being traded to Memphis at the deadline, and it’s unknown when that will change. He wasn’t in the Wizards’ rotation, and the 10th overall pick in the 2022 draft faces even more competition for minutes in Memphis.

Acquired from the Wizards on Thursday as part of a multi-team trade, Davis has yet to join the Grizzlies. Given the lack of production in Washington and the Grizzlies’ wing depth, his absence will not impact fantasy basketball.

Davis hasn’t been able to figure things out in the NBA since Washington drafted him with the No. 10 pick in 2022. Now, he finds himself as a throw-in as part of a larger deal. Davis hasn’t been a fantasy relevant player to this point of his career, and that is unlikely to change with the Grizzlies.

Davis is available to play on Friday but isn’t guaranteed to be in the rotation. He should not be rostered in fantasy leagues.

Davis isn’t in the rotation when healthy, so his absence will not impact fantasy basketball. Leave him on the waiver wire.

Kispert and George were injured during the first half of Tuesday’s loss to Cleveland, and Saturday’s game will be the second they’ll miss. With Malcolm Brogdon (knee) joining them on the sideline, Bub Carrington will have increased fantasy value out of necessity. Johnny Davis may play rotation minutes, but he is not worth streaming in most leagues.

Kispert injured his ankle during the first half of Tuesday’s loss to the Cavaliers and did not return. Johnny Davis could be pressed into action with Kyshawn George (ankle) also out and Malcolm Brogdon (knee) questionable for Thursday’s game. There’s no need to consider streaming him due to his limited production.
