John Konchar - Back to bench Konchar will move back to the bench for Monday's game against the 76ers, Rob Fischer of Bally Sports Southeast reports.

Impact Konchar started Saturday's game against Washington in place of Ziaire Williams, but with Williams back healthy he'll move back to his usual bench role. Konchar finished Saturday's victory with seven points, 10 boards, five assists and a steal in 33 minutes.

Ziaire Williams - Back in starting five Williams will start Monday's game against the 76ers, Rob Fischer of Bally Sports Southeast reports.

Impact Williams missed the last game with a sore knee, but he'll be back in the lineup at his usual small forward spot Monday. John Konchar will return to the bench.

Tyus Jones - Will be available Monday Jones (COVID-19 protocols) will be available for Monday's contest against the 76ers, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.

Impact Jones has missed six straight games, but he will return to the court Monday. As the primary backup to Ja Morant, he's averaging 8.2 points, 4.2 assists and 2.7 rebounds across 21.1 minutes per game.

Tyus Jones - May return Monday Jones (COVID-19 protocols) is questionable for Monday's game at Philadelphia.

Impact Jones has missed the past six games while in the health and safety protocols, but he could return to action Monday for Memphis. If available the 25-year-old could have some workload limitations coming off the absence.

Ziaire Williams - Not on injury report Wiliams (knee) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's contest against the 76ers.

Impact Williams sat out Saturday's win over the Wizards due to left knee soreness, but he appears to be good to go for Monday. He's started the last 10 games he's appeared in and has averaged 9.5 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 26.2 minutes during that stretch.

Kyle Anderson - Modest output in return Anderson (COVID-19 protocols) tallied four points (2-5 FG), nine rebounds and four assists across 23 minutes Saturday in the Grizzlies' 115-95 win over the Wizards.

Impact Anderson was back in action after missing the Grizzlies' previous seven games while he was in the NBA's health and safety protocols. He didn't appear to have any major restrictions Saturday, but Memphis isn't likely to filter any additional playing time his way while frontcourt starters Jaren Jackson and Steven Adams and supporting players like Brandon Clarke, John Konchar and De'Anthony Melton are all playing well at the moment.

JANUARY 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

De'Anthony Melton - Keeps producing Saturday Melton generated 13 points (5-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt), seven rebounds, two steals, one assist and one block across 27 minutes Saturday in the Grizzlies' 115-95 win over the Wizards.

Impact Even with Kyle Anderson (COVID-19 protocols) making his return from a multi-game absence, Melton was able to maintain an elevated role, as he cleared 24 minutes for the fifth game in a row. Over that stretch, Melton has produced at a high level, averaging 13.2 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.8 three-pointers. He's shooting just 37.5 percent from the field during that span, however, so he could be in store for some reduction in playing time if Tyus Jones (COVID-19 protocols) is cleared to rejoin the backcourt rotation Monday in Philadelphia.

Brandon Clarke - Solid run continues Clarke finished with 10 points (5-8 FG), six rebounds, one assist and one block in 20 minutes Saturday in the Grizzlies' 115-95 win over the Wizards.

Impact Clarke took a step back Saturday after turning in a 22-point outing against Utah a night earlier, but the 25-year-old continues to thrive nonetheless as Memphis' top big man off the bench. Dating back to the start of the month, Clarke is averaging 13.1 points (on 68.1 percent shooting from the field), 6.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.4 blocks and 0.7 steals in 22.9 minutes per contest. Though his role isn't likely to grow while both Jaren Jackson and Steven Adams are healthy, Clarke's steady all-around production has been enough to make him worthy roster filler in 12-team leagues.

John Konchar - Impresses in starting role Konchar racked up seven points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Saturday's 115-95 win over Washington.

Impact Konchar came off the bench in his previous two games, but he was back in the starting five Saturday due to the absence of Ziaire Williams (knee). The third-year pro was one of two players in the contest to grab double-digit rebounds and also racked up a season-high five assists. Konchar has proven to be a strong rebounder, but he doesn't produce enough offensively to be a viable fantasy asset.

JANUARY 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Steven Adams - Produces double-double Saturday Adams closed Saturday's 115-95 victory over the Wizards with 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-2 FT), 15 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal over 29 minutes.

Impact Adams led all players with 15 rebounds and three blocks in the contest, with each mark establishing a high point since the turn of the new year. The veteran center's scoring output was his highest since he notched 12 points against San Antonio on Dec. 31. Adams is averaging 4.7 points, 10.1 boards, 3.5 assists and 1.3 steals across 11 games in January.

JANUARY 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ja Morant - Reaches 30 points again Morant closed with 34 points (15-27 FG, 4-8 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Saturday's 115-95 victory over the Wizards.

Impact Morant was unsurprisingly Memphis' leading scorer in the victory, reaching the 30-point mark for the sixth straight contest. The recently elected All-Star starter didn't collect his typical abundance of peripheral stats, though he did contribute four three-pointers. Since the start of the new year, Morant is averaging 28.6 points, 7.2 assists, 6.5 rebounds and 1.4 three-pointers per game.
