Santi Aldama

MEM Forward-Center #7

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Santi Aldama led the Grizzlies with 37 points (13-of-21 FGs), five rebounds, seven assists, one steal and seven three-pointers in a 137-128 win over the Jazz on Tuesday.

Aldama returned to the starting lineup in this game and led Memphis to win. He set a new career high for threes and matched his career high for points, which he set three days prior to this game. A dud against the Thunder was sandwiched between two 37-point outings. Aldama continues to be a consistent producer for Memphis, which is helpful with how many injuries they have dealt with in the frontcourt. Aldama is available in 55 percent of Yahoo! leagues but should be considered a must-roster player at this point.
Gregory Jackson

MEM Small Forward #45

GG Jackson started on Tuesday and contributed 18 points (7-of-9 FGs), nine rebounds, one assist, one block and two three-pointers against the Jazz.

With Cedric Coward (heel) sidelined, Jackson got the starting nod for the first time this season. The third-year wing had his best game of the season, nearly recording a double-double in the win. Jackson entered the league young and just turned 21 last week. He still holds plenty of upside, but he can’t deliver for fantasy managers if he doesn’t get the opportunity. Hopefully this performance will allow him to remain in the rotation moving forward, but he isn’t worth adding at this point.
Cam Spencer

MEM Guard #24

Cam Spencer recorded a double-double on Tuesday with 11 points (4-of-8 FGs), three rebounds, 13 assists and two three-pointers against the Jazz.

Spencer has started three straight games for Memphis and has enjoyed success as a playmaker. He is averaging 10.7 assists per game during this stretch, which includes two double-doubles and a new career high for assists in this one. He hasn’t shot the ball as well as he had been as a reserve, but he has played well as a starter. As long as Ja Morant (ankle) remains out, Spencer will be worth rostering.
Gregory Jackson

MEM Small Forward #45

Cam Spencer, Jaylen Wells, GG Jackson, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Santi Aldama against the Jazz on Tuesday.

With Cedric Coward (heel) sidelined, GG Jackson will enter the starting lineup for the first time this season. His role has been minimal this year, but he has plenty of upside as a scorer. Aldama will also return to the starting lineup, which bumps Jock Landale to the bench.
Javon Small

MEM Guard #10

Javon Small (toe) is available to play against the Jazz on Tuesday.

Small has been sidelined since early November but will be available to provide much-needed depth in the backcourt. He likely won’t play big minutes, but with Ja Morant sidelined, he should see an opportunity off the bench behind Cam Spencer.
Cedric Coward

MEM Guard #23

Cedric Coward (heel) has been ruled out against the Jazz on Tuesday.

With Coward joining Ja Morant (ankle) and Vince Williams Jr. (foot) as out for this game, Memphis will be thin in the backcourt. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope lost his starting spot to Coward earlier this season but should reprise that role with Coward sidelined.
Ja Morant

MEM Guard #12

Ja Morant (ankle) and Vince Williams (foot) are out for Tuesday’s matchup with the Jazz.

Cedric Coward (heel) is questionable, so Cam Spencer should be in line for big minutes. Spencer has been quite productive as of late, and he should be rostered in all 12-team leagues.
Cam Spencer

MEM Guard #24

Cam Spender posted a line of 14 points (4-of-11 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, eight assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Monday’s loss to the Thunder.

With Ja Morant and Vince Williams Jr. out due to injury, Spencer has been the Grizzlies’ starting point guard the last two games. After dishing out 11 assists in Saturday’s loss to the Wizards, the second-year guard tallied eight more on Monday. However, unlike Saturday, when he committed two turnovers, that category was an issue against the reigning champs. Spencer committed four on Monday, so the efficiency wasn’t as good as it could be. But that’s no reason for fantasy managers to hop off the bandwagon, especially with Spencer and the Grizzlies visiting Utah on Tuesday.
Cedric Coward

MEM Guard #23

Cedric Coward tallied 16 points (5-of-10 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), eight rebounds, six assists, one block and two three-pointers in Monday’s loss to the Thunder.

While his fantasy value has slipped since a hot start to the season, Coward had a productive night for category league managers on Monday. The six assists matched the rookie’s previous high, and managers can also benefit from the rebounds and three-pointers. Rostered in 31 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Coward has been a 10th-round player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks. The Grizzlies conclude their road trip on Tuesday against the Jazz.
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope

MEM Guard #3

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope finished Monday’s loss to the Thunder with 16 points (5-of-6 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), three rebounds, four assists and five three-pointers.

Caldwell-Pope’s five three-pointers were a season-high for the veteran guard, who also matched his high point total on Tuesday. While capable of providing a few three-pointers off the bench, that isn’t enough to make KCP a player worth rostering on most nights. Even with Monday’s showing, leave Caldwell-Pope on the waiver wire.
