Jock Landale

MEM Center #31

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Jock Landale amassed 20 points (8-of-15 FGs), 10 rebounds, three assists, two steals, one block and four three-pointers in Wednesday’s win over the Timberwolves.

With Brandon Clarke (knee) making his season debut, there may have been some concern among those who have held onto Landale. However, with Clarke under a minutes restriction, he played 30 minutes off the bench and finished with one of his best lines of the season. The double-double was the second of the season for Landale, who also recorded his third 20-point game. With Clarke’s playing time restricted and Zach Edey (ankle) unavailable, those who held onto Landale for this long might as well stick with him for a few more games.
Brandon Clarke

MEM Forward #15

Brandon Clarke tallied six points (2-of-7 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, one assist and one steal in Wednesday’s win over the Timberwolves.

Clarke made his season debut on Wednesday, and to the surprise of many, he did so as a starter. His first stint on the floor lasted just under four minutes, and the Grizzlies are likely to limit Clarke’s playing time for the foreseeable future. The question is whether he can play enough while Zach Edey (ankle) is out to become a viable option in deep leagues. Based on the playing time and production, Clarke isn’t there yet, but that could change in time.
Jaylen Wells

MEM Forward #0

Jaylen Wells accounted for 17 points (5-of-13 FGs, 5-of-7 FTs), four rebounds, two assists, three steals and two three-pointers in Wednesday’s win over the Timberwolves.

With Ja Morant (ankle) unavailable, the Grizzlies decided to go big on Wednesday, with Brandon Clarke joining the starters. That may have opened some things up for Wells offensively, and the second-year wing extended his streak of double-digit scoring games to 10. Over the past two weeks, Wells has been a top-100 player in eight-cat formats, a significant improvement for a player ranked outside the top-200 for the season. Cedric Coward (13/5/3/1) continues to have superior season-long fantasy value, but the gap between him and Wells is shrinking.
Jaren Jackson

MEM Forward-Center #8

Jaren Jackson Jr. finished Wednesday’s win over the Timberwolves with 28 points (10-of-18 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), 12 rebounds, three assists, one steal, three blocks and two three-pointers.

After he went off for 31 points in Monday’s win over the Clippers, there were likely a lot of fantasy managers interested in seeing what Jackson would do for an encore. With Ja Morant (ankle) back on the sidelines, Trip recorded a complete stat line that included his first double-double of the season. Over the past two weeks, Jackson has been a fourth-round player in eight-cat formats. After these last two games, Jackson’s “buy low” window has likely closed.
Brandon Clarke

MEM Forward #15

Cedric Coward, Jaylen Wells, Jaren Jackson Jr., Santi Aldama and Brandon Clarke will start Wednesday’s game against the Timberwolves.

The Grizzlies won’t have Ja Morant (ankle) for Wednesday’s game, and they’ve decided to go with a bigger lineup. Clarke will start in his first appearance of the season after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery in late September. Vince Williams Jr., who was a starter when Morant missed time with a strained calf, will come off the bench, which limits his fantasy ceiling.
Brandon Clarke

MEM Forward #15

Brandon Clarke (knee) is available for Wednesday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Clarke, who underwent offseason right knee surgery, is available to play for the first time this season. With Zach Edey (ankle) out, rotation minutes should be available. That said, the amount of time that Clarke missed likely means that he’ll be on a minutes restriction. He isn’t a must-add now, but keep an eye on Clarke’s minutes and production.
Ja Morant

MEM Guard #12

Ja Morant (ankle) is out for Wednesday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Morant did not participate in Wednesday’s pregame shootaround, so his absence is unsurprising. Vince Williams Jr. will move back into the starting lineup, and he’s worth streaming for those who can take a hit in the percentages.
Ja Morant

MEM Guard #12

Ja Morant (ankle) is doubtful for Wednesday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Morant, who sprained his left ankle late in Monday’s win over the Clippers, was seen moving with the aid of crutches at Wednesday’s pregame shootaround. The downgrade in status suggests he won’t be available, which will move Vince Williams Jr. back into the starting lineup. While his percentages have been poor, Williams would be worth streaming, as the Grizzlies won’t have Cam Spencer (personal), either.
Ja Morant

MEM Guard #12

Ja Morant (ankle) was seen in crutches and in street clothes at shootaround ahead of Wednesday’s game against Minnesota.

Memphis hasn’t ruled him out yet, but how often does a player show up on crutches to shootaround and play later that day? Vince Williams Jr. had been starting when Morant was last sidelined, and he was an elite source of assists in that role. He would be worth streaming, especially on a day with only two games played.
Brandon Clarke

MEM Forward #15

Brandon Clarke (knee) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Clarke could make his season debut Wednesday after recovering from right knee surgery. The 29-year-old power forward is listed as questionable, which at least gives him a chance of suiting up against the Timberwolves. Clarke could see rotation minutes with Zach Edey (ankle) sidelined if he’s available.
