David Roddy News, Rumors, Updates - Denver Nuggets

Drops 21 points in Summer League Roddy logged 21 points (7-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, five assists a steal and a block over 28 minutes of Wednesday's 100-99 win over the Thunder.

Impact Roddy was fouled attempting a game-winning three-pointer with less than a second left and sunk all three free throws to vault the Suns to victory. Roddy was dealt to Phoenix at the trade deadline last season but didn't play more than 10 minutes in a game with the Suns. Similarly, Roddy isn't expected to be anything more than a fringe rotation piece in 2024-25.

JULY 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Fading from relevance Roddy scored two points (1-1 FG) in five minutes during Monday's 117-111 victory over Cleveland.

Impact Roddy has logged double-digit minutes just once across eight appearances since being dealt to Phoenix at the trade deadline. The second-year wing failing to make an impact while Eric Gordon (knee) and Josh Okogie (abdomen) are unavailable bodes extremely poorly for his rest-of-season outlook. Memphis moving on from Roddy less than two full campaigns after drafting him in the first round symbolizes his struggle to carve out a niche in the league thus far.

MARCH 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Available against Warriors Roddy (trade pending) will be available for Saturday's game against the Warriors.

Impact Royce O'Neale is also available to make his debut, but he's far more likely to carve out a meaningful role in Phoenix. Roddy made 48 appearances for the Grizzlies this season, averaging 8.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.0 three-pointers. He shot 40.2 percent from the field and 30.1 percent from beyond the arc, however.

FEBRUARY 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to Phoenix Roddy was traded from the Grizzlies to the Suns on Thursday as part of a three-team trade that sent draft-pick compensation to Memphis and Royce O'Neale to Phoenix, Shams Charania...

Impact Roddy saw consistent playing time for the Grizzlies for most of the first half of the season, and he saw increased work in recent matchups since Memphis was dealing with multiple injuries. Over 48 appearances this year, he's averaged 8.4 points and 4.2 rebounds in 23.2 minutes per game. He'll now move to a playoff contender that has also acquired O'Neale ahead of Thursday's deadline, but Roddy has proven to be capable of providing scoring and rebounding production off the bench when needed.

FEBRUARY 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Moves back to bench Roddy isn't in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Knicks.

Impact Roddy will be replaced by Santi Aldama in the starting lineup Tuesday. Roddy is averaging 8.0 points, 5.4 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 23.4 minutes across his last five appearances coming off the bench.

FEBRUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Struggles from deep Roddy racked up 14 points (6-16 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds and one assist over 33 minutes during Sunday's 131-91 loss to Boston.

Impact With Memphis shorthanded again, Roddy drew his 13th start of the season. The 16 shot attempts were one shy of Roddy's season-high mark, but he struggled to make the most of his opportunity, missing all five of his three-point attempts while committing three turnovers. Roddy's garnered a consistent role since mid-January, but his production tends to wane. Over his last 14 appearances (five starts), Roddy has averaged 10.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 27.1 minutes per game.

FEBRUARY 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Enters starting lineup Roddy is starting Sunday's game versus Boston.

Impact Roddy, GG Jackson and Luke Kennard represent the only healthy Grizzlies on the wings Sunday. Roddy is averaging 10.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 12 games as a starter this season, but Sunday's adverse circumstances should yield additional usage.

FEBRUARY 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back to bench Roddy will come off the bench for Thursday's game against the Cavaliers.

Impact This is an expected move with Vince Williams (knee) back in the lineup. Memphis is still very shorthanded at the moment, so Roddy figures to see plenty of minutes with the second unit due to his ability to play multiple positions.

FEBRUARY 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Tallies double figures in start Roddy provided 14 points (5-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 32 minutes during Sunday's 116-110 loss to Indiana.

Impact Roddy got the start due to Luke Kennard (knee) being inactive, finishing as one of five Grizzlies players with a double-digit point total to go along with a pair of threes and a handful of rebounds. Roddy has recorded 14 or more points in nine games this season, four times as a starter. He has now hauled in at least five boards in three of his last four appearances.

JANUARY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Moves into starting lineup again Roddy will start Sunday's game against the Pacers.

Impact With Luke Kennard (knee) sidelined again, Roddy will draw his second start over the last three games. Roddy has made 10 starts this season, averaging 10.7 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.0 steals in 28.6 minutes per game during those contests.

JANUARY 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starting against Heat Roddy will start Wednesday's game against Miami.

Impact Roddy will step into the first unit for the 10th time this season due to the Grizzlies' lengthy injury report. Filling out the remainder of the starting five are Jacob Gilyard, John Konchar, Vince Williams and Jaren Jackson, meaning Roddy should have an expanded offensive role. In his last seven appearances, Roddy is averaging 11.6 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists.

JANUARY 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Logs 32 minutes in loss Roddy ended Saturday's 125-96 loss to the Bulls with 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists across 32 minutes.

Impact Roddy played 32 minutes off the bench,second-most to Jaren Jackson who logged 33. With the Grizzlies decimated by injuries, their rotations promise to be weird and wild moving forward. Although this is an encouraging sign for Roddy, it's hard to know whether to trust this or not. At best, he could be utilized as a streaming option, with a view to moving on quite quickly should his role reduce at any point.

JANUARY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back to bench Roddy will return to the bench for Monday's game against the Warriors, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.

Impact With Jaren Jackson (knee) returning, Roddy will go back to playing with the second unit. Roddy was serviceable in his lone start due to Jackson's absence, putting up 14 points, four rebounds, two steals and an assist over a season-high 35 minutes.

JANUARY 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Joins first unit Roddy will start Saturday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Jaren Jackson (knee) is out for the second leg of this back-to-back set, leaving the Grizzlies very thin in the frontcourt. In addition to starting at the four, Roddy is expected to see a handful of minutes as the backup center Saturday according to coach Taylor Jenkins.

JANUARY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Makes impact in win Roddy had 11 points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and three assists in 25 minutes during Tuesday's 120-103 victory over the Mavericks.

Impact With multiple key contributors out, Roddy played 20-plus minutes for the first time since Dec. 29. Ja Morant (shoulder) is expected to miss the rest of the season, opening the door for Roddy to garner an increased role again. However, even when Marcus Smart (hand) and Morant were sidelined earlier in the season, Roddy struggled to make a consistent impact.

JANUARY 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 15 off bench Roddy finished with 15 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-8 FT) and two assists across 29 minutes during Thursday's 142-105 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Roddy scored in double figures in just one of his 10 appearances before Thursday's matchup, but he saw an increased role off the bench during Thursday's blowout loss. Despite his uptick in playing time against the Nuggets, Roddy's role has decreased in recent games, and he doesn't hold much fantasy value.

DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Moves to bench Roddy will move to a bench role for Friday's game against the Rockets, Jessica Benson of Bally Sports Southeast reports.

Impact Desmond Bane is returning from his illness Friday, but instead of Vince Williams, it will be Roddy who moves to the second unit. Roddy is coming off a dud versus Houston on Wednesday, as he hit 3-of-14 shots for nine points in 32 minutes.

DECEMBER 9, 2023 • YOUTUBE

Solid contribution in win Roddy provided four points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, two steals and assist across 22 minutes in Wednesday's 116-102 victory over Detroit.

Impact This game was also Roddy's fourth consecutive start since replacing Santi Aldama on Nov. 29, and he is averaging 9.3 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.3 blocks through 25.3 minutes in that span. The Grizzlies are also 3-1 since playing Roddy with the starters, so it seems likely he will continue his role for the foreseeable future.

DECEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Drops 19 points in spot start Roddy accumulated 19 points (7-11 FG, 5-9 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 105-91 win over the Jazz.

Impact Roddy moved into the starting lineup Wednesday, replacing Santi Aldama who was relegated to the bench. His 19 points marked a season-high, the third consecutive game in which he has tallied double-digit points. The Grizzles are basically rolling the dice on anyone and everyone to see if they can find a combination that works. Roddy is certainly not a must-roster guy but could be worth a flier heading into Friday's game against the Mavericks.

NOVEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Inserted into starting lineup Roddy is in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus Utah, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Roddy will replace Santi Aldama in the starting lineup Wednesday. Roddy tallied 16 points and three assists in 32 minutes during his only other starting appearances this season.

NOVEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Plays 22 minutes off bench Roddy registered four points (2-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist over 22 minutes during Wednesday's 111-91 loss to the Rockets.

Impact With Memphis banged up, Roddy has carved out a consistent bench role. He's played at least 20 minutes in five straight games, averaging 5.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals in 24.0 minutes during that stretch. However, his production has been extremely sporadic, making him an untrustworthy fantasy option.

NOVEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Fills stat sheet off bench Tuesday Roddy produced 17 points (6-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 134-107 loss to the Lakers.

Impact The nature of the game allowed the Grizzlies' reserves to play more than they usually do, and Roddy was one of the players that took advantage of the opportunity to deliver a strong fantasy line. However, this was just the third time he scored in double digits this season, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect too much from him going forward.

NOVEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back to bench Roddy will not start in Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Impact Roddy was moved into the starting lineup for Memphis' previous matchup, in which he posted 16 points and three rebounds, but he will be moved back to the bench in favor of Xavier Tillman. It would not be surprising to see Memphis' starting lineup continue to change with their struggles to start the season.

NOVEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Posts 16 points, but little else Roddy registered 16 points (8-14 FG, 0-4 3Pt) and three rebounds across 32 minutes in Friday's 115-113 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Roddy entered the starting five in place of Xavier Tillman, who moved to the bench while the Grizzlies favored more of a small-ball lineup featuring Jaren Jackson at center. As a result of the promotion to the top unit, Roddy was able to clear the 30-minute mark for the first time in 2023-24, and though he also posted a new season-high in scoring, his contributions were lacking in other areas. It's unclear if Roddy will stick in the starting five moving forward or if Friday's lineup configuration was a one-game experiment, but the second-year player is likely to face a threat for playing time sooner or later when Santi Aldama (ankle) is cleared to make his season debut.
