Olivier-Maxence

Prosper

Given the glut of power forwards on Memphis’ roster, especially after the team selected Cameron Boozer and Karim Lopez in last month’s draft, these summer games are critical for Prosper as he looks to lock down consistent rotation minutes. He shot a respectable 3-of-8 from beyond the arc on Monday and was a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. In a perfect world for the Grizzlies, Prosper will play well enough during the summer that the team will decide to shut him down while in Las Vegas.

The Grizzlies took a chance picking up O-Max last season, and he was able to provide solid value down the stretch. However, he is still fighting for a spot in the rotation after they exercised his option for the upcoming season. Memphis added Cameron Boozer and Karim Lopez in the draft, and Taylor Hendricks is still ahead of him on the depth chart. Still, this was a strong performance for him, though he’ll need to keep it up entering training camp and the preseason.

Jackson appeared in 55 games last season, averaging 12.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.2 three-pointers in 21.4 minutes. While he has provided decent value in the past, the Grizzlies’ selection of Cameron Boozer and Karim Lopez in the draft, along with the acquisition of Isaiah Stewart, means there will be more players competing with Jackson for rotation minutes. The Grizzlies also exercised Olivier-Maxence Prosper’s option for the 2026-27 season.

Prosper was initially questionable for Sunday’s game. Given how shorthanded the Grizzlies are, he should play significant minutes for the regular-season finale.

While Clayton and Prosper did not play in Friday’s loss to the Jazz, Bal started and logged 38 minutes. Getting Clayton and Prosper back on Sunday would do wonders for the Grizzlies, who played just six players due to injuries. Lucas Williamson and Jahmai Mashack played all 48 minutes on Friday.

Prosper will miss a second consecutive game due to a sore right ankle. With Taylor Hendricks and GG Jackson also out, Toby Okani will have to play heavy minutes once again. He played 33 minutes in Wednesday’s loss to the Nuggets, and that was with Hendricks available. Taj Gibson is available, but he played just five minutes on Wednesday.

Prosper did not play in Wednesday’s loss to the Nuggets and appears likely to miss a second consecutive game on Friday. With Taylor Hendricks and GG Jackson already out, the Grizzlies are likely to play Toby Okani heavy minutes. Taj Gibson is available, but he played just five minutes on Wednesday.

Initially doubtful, Prosper is out for Wednesday’s game. Taylor Hendricks and Toby Okani are likely to play heavy minutes, as the Grizzlies are light on options in the frontcourt.

Prosper, who scored 24 points in Monday’s loss to the Cavaliers, is on track to miss Wednesday’s game. With GG Jackson already out, the Grizzlies will lean heavily on Taylor Hendricks and Toby Okani in the frontcourt, and there may also be rotation minutes available to Taj Gibson.

Prosper was the highest-scoring Grizzlies player on Monday, with all of his points coming from field goals. He only missed two shots and was red-hot from beyond the arc to efficiently make his way past the 20-point mark. Prosper didn’t contribute in many other areas, which was the story of his season from a fantasy standpoint — he didn’t provide much value aside from inconsistent scoring.
