Fills up categories in return Clarke (back) played 20 minutes off the bench and contributed eight points (4-6 FG), six rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block in Wednesday's 118-110 win over the Spurs.

Impact After sitting out the Grizzlies' previous game Sunday in Dallas with a sore back, Clarke looked good in his return to action, ticking off nearly every statistical category except three-pointers. The third-year big man has held a consistent role over his last seven outings, playing between 20 and 26 minutes each time out while averaging 11.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.6 blocks, 1.4 assists and 1.0 steals while shooting 66.7 percent from the field and 76.9 percent from the free-throw line.

Available Wednesday Clarke (back) is available for Wednesday's game against the Spurs.

Impact Clarke missed one game with a sore back and will return to action Wednesday after being labeled questionable. He's averaged 11.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.6 blocks in 22.6 minutes over his past five games, one of which was a start. Clarke will presumably come off the bench in San Antonio.

Questionable vs. Spurs Clarke (back) is questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Spurs.

Impact Clarke sat out Sunday against the Mavericks and could be in line for a second straight absence. If he sits out again, more minutes could be available for Xavier Tillman.

Ruled out Sunday Clarke (back) will not play Sunday against the Mavericks.

Impact A sore back will cause Clarke to miss his first game since back on Dec. 23. The issue doesn't look to be anything overly serious, but it puts a temporary halt to Clarke's reemergence as a legitimate fantasy option. Over the last 15 games, he's posted 12.3 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.4 blocks and 0.5 steals while shooting 68.7 percent from the floor. With a pair of off days coming up Monday and Tuesday, Clarke should have a decent chance to return for Wednesday's game at San Antonio.

Questionable vs. Mavericks Clarke is questionable for Sunday's game against the Mavericks due to back soreness.

Impact Clarke has found his stride lately, and he's averaging 13.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.7 blocks and 1.4 assists in the past 12 games. Steven Adams (ankle) is also questionable for Sunday's game, so the Grizzlies could have a shorthanded frontcourt.

Another productive night Monday Clarke provided 15 points (7-8 FG, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and two steals over 20 minutes during Monday's 119-106 win over the Bulls.

Impact Clarke shifted back to the bench Monday but still walked away with a solid fantasy line. After a very muted start to the season, Clarke has established himself as an important part of the rotation. While it does feel unlikely his playing time reaches 30 minutes per game, he has been doing enough when on the court and should now be looked at as a viable 12-team flier.

Starts, plays 20 minutes in loss Clarke accumulated nine points (3-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 20 minutes during Friday's 112-85 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Despite Steven Adams returning from COVID-19 protocols, the Grizzlies opted to start Clarke and Jaren Jackson up front, but Clarke ultimately saw only 20 minutes of action in a game that got out of hand after a big third quarter by the Mavs. After falling out of favor last season, Clarke has worked his way back into a consistent role, and he's averaged 14.0 points, 7.2 boards, 1.4 assists and 1.7 block over his last nine contests. Adams' return isn't a great sign for Clarke, but it's worth noting that he was still routinely seeing 20-plus minutes off the bench before the big men entered protocols.

Starting Friday Clarke is starting Friday's game against Dallas.

Impact Clarke has had a relatively consistent role off the bench this year, but he'll make the first start of the season Friday while Steven Adams comes off the bench. Clarke has topped 10 points in each of his last eight appearances and has averaged 14.6 points and 8.0 rebounds in 23.8 minutes per game across that span.
