Ruled out for Saturday Konchar (neck) will not play Saturday against the Timberwolves.

Impact Konchar will be held out for the second leg of this back-to-back set. The Grizzlies will be very shorthanded Saturday, so Vince Williams and GG Jackson could see extended minutes.

FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with neck injury Konchar is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves due to anterior triangle contusion.

Impact Konchar may have picked up the injury during the Grizzlies' 114-106 loss to the Pelicans on Friday, when he tallied nine points (4-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists over 22 minutes. He has averaged 21.4 minutes per game over his last five outings, and that playing time will be absorbed by GG Jackson and Vince Williams, assuming Konchar is ruled out for Saturday's contest.

Fares well off bench Konchar recorded eight points (3-3 FG, 2-2 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 112-97 loss to the Hornets.

Impact The Grizzlies are very shorthanded these days, and Konchar was able to take advantage of his minutes Wednesday. He's trending up in deeper formats, posting averages of 2.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.7 steals, 1.3 blocks and 0.7 three-pointers in 21.7 minutes over his last three games.

JANUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Won't start Friday Konchar is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Pelicans.

Impact Konchar made his first start of the season Wednesday but will slide back to a reserve role Friday with Jock Landale (personal) returning to the starting five. Over his past four appearances, Konchar is averaging 2.8 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 1.5 assists in 15.3 minutes per contest.

JANUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Wednesday Konchar will start Wednesday versus the Hawks.

Impact With Santi Aldama (knee) unavailable, Konchar will draw his first start of the season and he'll be joined in the first unit by Ja Morant, Cedric Coward, Jaylen Wells and Jaren Jackson. Konchar can rack up the boards and defensive stats when given the minutes, so he's on the radar as a potential streamer in deep leagues.

JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Makes return with light minutes Konchar (thumb) registered zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one steal across five minutes in Sunday's 103-98 win over the Nets.

Impact Konchar was available for the Grizzlies for the first time since Dec. 7 after completing his recovery from surgery to address a torn UCL in his left thumb. He was held out for the entirety of the first half before he entered the rotation for a brief stretch in the third quarter. Though Konchar is a strong defender who's capable of guarding multiple positions, he'll likely be at risk of falling out of the rotation once the Grizzlies get one or more of their five other injured players (Ja Morant, Zach Edey, Brandon Clarke, Scotty Pippen and Ty Jerome) back in action.

JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Sunday Konchar (thumb) is available for Sunday's game against the Nets.

Impact Konchar will shed his questionable tag and return from a 14-game absence due to a torn UCL in his left thumb that required surgery. In 22 regular-season appearances thus far, the 29-year-old forward has averaged 3.0 points and 2.7 rebounds while shooting 51.0 percent from the field in 13.0 minutes per tilt.

JANUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Sunday Konchar (thumb) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Nets.

Impact Konchar has missed the last 14 games for Memphis, and the questionable tag suggests he might have a shot at returning Sunday. Konchar hasn't played since Dec. 7 due to a torn UCL in his left thumb, and if he's cleared to return, he's likely to see minutes off the bench as a spot-up shooter.

Won't play Friday Konchar (thumb) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Konchar will miss his 14th consecutive game Friday. His next chance to play will come Sunday against the Nets.

JANUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Doubtful for Friday Konchar (thumb) is doubtful to play Friday versus the Thunder.

Impact Konchar hasn't played since Dec. 7 as he's been recovering from thumb surgery, and while he'll likely remain on the inactive list for Friday's game, his being listed as "doubtful" can be considered a sign of progress. Check back for official word on Konchar's status closer to Friday's tip.

Remains out indefinitely Konchar (thumb) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Spurs.

Impact Konchar hasn't played since Dec. 7 due to a torn UCL in his left thumb that required surgery, and he is expected to be re-evaluated any day now. Still, he should be considered week-to-week until the Grizzlies offer an update on his progress.
