Yuta Watanabe - Downgraded to out Watanabe (wrist) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets, Rob Fischer of Bally Sports Southeast reports.
Impact As expected, Watanabe and Jaren Jackson (quad) have both been downgraded from doubtful to out. Lamar Stevens, Trey Jemison and Matt Hurt are all candidates for extra minutes, while Watanabe's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday in Philadelphia.

Yuta Watanabe - Doubtful for Monday Watanabe is doubtful for Monday's game against the Nets due to a right wrist sprain.
Impact Watanabe has seen an increased role in recent games with so many injuries in Memphis, but now he's expected to hit the shelf. With Jaren Jackson (quadriceps) still banged up, Lamar Stevens could be asked to step up for the Grizzlies.

Nets' full injury report for Monday matchup against Grizzlies Here is the Brooklyn Nets’ full injury report for their matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday.

Ziaire Williams - Won't play Monday Williams (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets.
Impact Williams had to be helped to the lower room late in overtime of Saturday's loss to Portland due to a back injury. The extent of the issue remains unclear, but Williams' next chance to suit up will come Wednesday in Philadelphia.
MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE
Jaren Jackson Jr. - Doubtful for Monday Jackson (quad) is doubtful to play Monday versus Brooklyn.
Impact Jackson is trending towards missing his third consecutive game due to right quad tendinitis. Memphis was dismantled 111-86 by Brooklyn's bottom-10 ranked offense Monday even while Jackson logged 30 minutes. His absence would likely leave Santi Aldama and GG Jackson with the majority of power forward minutes.
MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE
Derrick Rose - Remains out Monday Rose (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets.
Impact Rose will miss a third straight game due to back soreness. The veteran's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday in Philadelphia.
MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE
GG Jackson II - Poor shooting display Saturday Jackson amassed 17 points (4-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 8-10 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two steals in 31 minutes during Saturday's 107-100 overtime loss to the Trail Blazers.
Impact Jackson might have ended with a decent stat line, but he earned nearly half his points from the charity stripe following a dismal shooting effort. Jackson has been remarkably consistent as a scorer in recent weeks, even if he's prone to deliver some inefficient performances, and the numbers back that up. He's scored in double digits in all but one of his last 10 appearances off the bench, averaging 16.5 points per game and shooting 45.2 percent from the field in that span.
MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE
Santi Aldama - Goes for 21 points in OT loss Aldama racked up 21 points (7-14 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one block in 37 minutes during Saturday's 107-100 overtime loss to the Trail Blazers.
Impact Aldama bounced back from the ugly shooting performance he had against the Trail Blazers on Friday, when he finished with six points on 3-for-10 shooting. He responded by posting his first 20-point outing since Nov. 24. Aldama is one of several Memphis players who have been trusted into more significant roles as the season has progressed. Still, the Spaniard has done a good job overall, even if his recent displays have been subpar. He's averaging just 10.4 points and 6.4 rebounds per game since the All-Star break.
MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE
Vince Williams Jr. - Fills stat sheet in OT loss Williams ended with 21 points (7-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, three blocks and two steals across 38 minutes during Saturday's 107-100 overtime loss to the...
Impact Williams grabbed a starting nod on Jan. 9 and never let it go, and the former VCU standout has backed that up with some impressive performances on both ends of the court. Even though Williams could still improve his consistency as a scorer, there's no question he delivers excellent value in category-based leagues due to his ability to impact both ends of the court. Over his last 10 appearances, Williams is averaging 12.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.7 blocks across 33.9 minutes per game.

Ziaire Williams - Exits with back injury Saturday Williams left Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers with an apparent back injury during overtime, Jonah Dylan of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports. He finished the game wit...
Impact Williams was helped to the locker room with a few minutes left in overtime and didn't return, so the medical staff will have enough time to assess him ahead of Monday's game against the Nets. Right now, he should be listed as questionable, but it wouldn't be shocking if he's forced to miss a few games if he's dealing with a significant injury.
MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE
Trey Jemison - Moves to bench Jemison will move to the bench for Saturday's game versus Portland.
Impact Jaren Jackson (quadriceps) is sitting out again, but the Grizzlies are rolling with Lamar Stevens in the frontcourt alongside Santi Aldama.
MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE
Lamar Stevens - Starting Saturday Stevens will enter the starting lineup for Saturday's game versus Portland.
Impact Jaren Jackson (quadriceps) is out again Saturday, but Stevens will replace Trey Jemison in the starting five. In seven appearances for the Grizzlies, Stevens holds averages of 12.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 blocks.
MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE
John Konchar - Available to play Saturday Konchar (thumb) is available to face the Trail Blazers on Saturday.
Impact Konchar was deemed as "expected to play" earlier on Saturday, so having him available is not really surprising. Considering how depleted the Grizzlies are due to injuries, expect Konchar to slot right back into the starting unit. He's been part of the first unit in 13 of his last 14 appearances.
MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE
Luke Kennard - Available for Saturday Kennard (illness) is available for Saturday's game versus Portland, Rob Fischer of Bally Sports Southeast reports.
Impact Kennard missed the past three games for Memphis, but he's finally healthy again and will give the Grizzlies a big lift with his perimeter shooting. With how many injuries the Grizzlies are dealing with, Kennard will likely have more touches and shots coming his way.
MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE
Derrick Rose - Won't play Saturday Rose (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Impact Rose will miss both halves of the back-to-back set against Portland after leaving Wednesday's loss to Minnesota early. The veteran's next chance to suit up will come Monday in Brooklyn.
MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE
John Konchar - Listed as questionable The Grizzlies have listed Konchar (thumb) as questionable for Saturday's tilt with the Trail Blazers.
Impact Konchar has been sidelined for Memphis' previous three games and is in danger of missing a fourth due to a left thumb sprain. He had been listed as doubtful going into the team's previous two contests, so his questionable tag Saturday indicates he is trending in the right direction. His final status is not likely to be determined until closer to tipoff. Jordan Goodwin and Ziaire Williams are candidates to continue seeing increased run should Konchar not get the green light.
MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE
Luke Kennard - Gets questionable tag Kennard (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Trail Blazers.
Impact Kennard is in danger of missing his third straight game due to an illness. He was originally deemed doubtful Friday before getting ruled out, so his questionable designation ahead of Memphis' matchup with Portland is a better sign. Still, final confirmation on his status is unlikely to come until closer to tipoff. Jordan Goodwin would again be a candidate to absorb some of Kennard's minutes if he ultimately gets ruled out.
MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE
Jaren Jackson Jr. - Out again Saturday Jackson (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Impact Jackson will miss both halves of Memphis' back-to-back set against the Trail Blazers after dropping 33 points, 13 rebounds and three steals during a Feb. 28 loss in Minnesota. Trey Jemison started in Jackson's absence Friday versus Portland and posted five points, six rebounds and an assist in 30 minutes. Jackson's next chance to suit up will come Monday in Brooklyn.
MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE
Lamar Stevens - Drops season-high 19 on Friday Stevens posted a season-high 19 points (7-12 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal across 21 minutes off the bench during Friday's 122-92 loss to Portland.
Impact No Grizzlies starter scored more than 10 points Friday, and Stevens and Jake LaRavia (21 points) ended up carrying the load on offense for the club. Stevens has been a fairly consistent contributor in the Memphis frontcourt since joining the team at the trade deadline, and over the last seven games he's averaging 12.1 points, 5.1 boards, 1.0 assists and 1.0 blocks in just 20.7 minutes a contest while shooting 56.3 percent from the floor.
