How the Memphis Grizzlies have fared since the All-Star break, Dillon Brooks updates The Memphis Grizzlies are entering an important stretch for playoff seeding implications and also their roster outlook.

Ja Morant - Generates well-rounded line in win Morant tallied 24 points (8-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, two steals and one block across 27 minutes Tuesday in the Grizzlies' 132-111 win over the Pelica...
Impact Morant's offense has tapered off a bit over the past three games after he averaged 40.0 points per contest over a recent five-game stretch, but he's at least continued to score efficiently while contributing more on the defensive end than usual. He's collected five steals over the past three contests, after he had averaged 0.6 per game in a month-long stretch prior to that.

Yves Pons - Plays first game since Jan. 29 Pons (thigh) logged six minutes off the bench in Tuesday's 132-111 win over the Pelicans, finishing with two points (1-1 FG) and one rebound.
Impact Pons had been sidelined since early February with the left thigh injury, but he was cleared to play in advance of the Grizzlies' previous game Sunday against the Rockets. He ultimately went unused in Memphis' 11-point loss to Houston, but the rookie got the chance to take the floor in Tuesday's blowout. Pons' appearances with the Grizzlies moving forward are likely to come almost entirely in garbage-time scenarios like Tuesday.

Killian Tillie - Fails to score in eight minutes Tillie racked up zero points (0-5 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two rebounds and one block over eight minutes during Tuesday's 132-111 victory over New Orleans.
Impact Tillie made a rare appearance Tuesday, sliding into the rotation as the game spiraled into garbage time. Having seen the court only three times in the last month, it's fair to say that Tillie can be left on the waiver wire in just about every format.
MARCH 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jaren Jackson Jr. - Blocks three shots Tuesday Jackson totaled 22 points (7-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, three blocks and one steal across 24 minutes during Tuesday's 132-111 victory over the Pelicans.
Impact Jackson turned things around after a poor showing in his previous performance, making the most of his time on the floor despite the blowout. Outside of a few subpar efforts, Jackson has been able to successfully rebuild his reputation after sitting out the majority of the 2020-21 season. With the Grizzlies pushing hard down the stretch, his production should be sustainable ROS.
MARCH 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ziaire Williams - Lands 16 points in blowout win Williams racked up 16 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds and one assist over 22 minutes during Tuesday's 132-111 victory over New Orleans.
Impact Williams scored in double-digits for the first time in over two weeks, cashing in as the Grizzlies dismantled the Pelicans. Despite having earned a regular spot in the starting rotation, Williams has not been able to translate that into anything more than deep league fantasy value. Dillon Brooks is nearing a return, at which point Williams is likely to shift back to the bench.

Xavier Tillman - Absent from injury report Tillman (personal) isn't on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against New Orleans.
Impact Tillman was unavailable for Sunday's game against Houston while tending to a personal matter, but he'll be back if needed for Tuesday's matchup. He hasn't played much of a role in the Grizzlies' rotation of late, averaging 2.9 points and 1.6 rebounds in 6.1 minutes over his last seven matchups.

Dillon Brooks - Won't play Tuesday vs. Pels Brooks (ankle) has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against the Pelicans.
Impact Coach Taylor Jenkins said recently that Brooks took a "huge step" forward in his rehab from a left ankle sprain, but it looks like he'll need a little more time before getting back on the floor. It's believed that Brooks, who has not played since Jan. 9, could return sometime within the next week or two, so his status will be worth monitoring as Memphis moves through its three-game week, which continues Friday (vs. NYK) before wrapping up Sunday (at OKC).
