John Konchar News, Rumors, Updates - New York Knicks

Unlikely to play Wednesday Konchar (thumb) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game versus the Timberwolves.

Impact Konchar is expected to miss his second straight contest Wednesday due to a left thumb sprain. With Luke Kennard (illness) also out, Derrick Rose and Jordan Goodwin should receive extended playing time in the backcourt.

Ruled out for Monday Konchar has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets due to a left thumb sprain.

Impact Konchar hurt his thumb during Friday's loss to the Clippers and will be forced to miss at least one game after being diagnosed with a sprain. Luke Kennard and Jordan Goodwin are candidates to see increased roles against Brooklyn.

Hurts thumb Friday Konchar exited with 4:18 remaining in the fourth quarter of Friday's 101-95 loss to the Clippers due to left thumb soreness and didn't return. He finished with seven points (2-4 FG...

Impact Konchar had missed the Grizzlies' final game before the All-Star break Feb. 15 against the Bucks due to a quadricep contusion, but it was a different injury that forced his early exit Friday. The fifth-year wing turned in a solid all-around line before departing the contest, paying dividends in particular for those who streamed him for steals.

FEBRUARY 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not listed on injury report Konchar (quad) is not listed on the injury report for Friday's tilt against the Clippers.

Impact Konchar will return from a one-game absence, and he could be viewed as a low-end option for some boards and blocks in deep leagues. Ziaire Williams could be headed for the second unit with Konchar back in action.

FEBRUARY 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Officially ruled out Konchar (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Bucks, Jonah Dylan of the Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Konchar was doubtful for Thursday's matchup due to a quadriceps contusion, so his status isn't particularly surprising. He'll have over a week to rest during the All-Star break before the Grizzlies face the Clippers on Feb. 23.

FEBRUARY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to play Thursday Konchar is doubtful for Friday's game versus the Bucks due to a quadriceps contusion.

Impact Konchar played 20 minutes Wednesday night against Houston but will likely miss the second leg of Memphis's back-to-back Thursday. Konchar has started in the Grizzlies' last five outings, so Jordan Goodwin and Ziaire Williams will likely be relied upon to play extended minutes in his potential absence.

FEBRUARY 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Top rebounder in near double-double Konchar ended with eight points (4-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals in 35 minutes during Saturday's 115-106 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Konchar led all players in Saturday's contest in rebounds and steals while ending two points shy of a double-double in an impressive performance in the paint for Memphis. Konchar has hauled in 10 or more rebounds in four games this season while setting a new season high in steals in the defeat.

FEBRUARY 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Will play Tuesday Konchar (wrist) is active for Tuesday's game against New York.

Impact Konchar has been cleared for action alongside Santi Aldama, Derrick Rose and Vince Williams, while Jaren Jackson (hip) and Xavier Tillman (knee) have been ruled out. Konchar brings a two-way stabilizing presence to the Grizzlies' ballhandling rotation.

FEBRUARY 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as questionable Konchar (calf) is questionable for Tuesday's game against New York.

Impact Konchar has missed two of the last four games due to a calf injury, and his status for Tuesday's contest is up in the air. If the 27-year-old is able to suit up, he should see ample playing time since the Grizzlies remain shorthanded.

FEBRUARY 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out Sunday Konchar (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Celtics.

Impact Konchar, along with the majority of Memphis' regulars, will be sidelined Sunday. His next chance to suit up will come Tuesday in New York. In Konchar's absence, GG Jackson, Jacob Gilyard and David Roddy are candidates for increased playing time.

FEBRUARY 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Nursing bruised calf Konchar is questionable for Sunday's game against the Celtics due to a right calf contusion.

Impact This is a new injury for Konchar, who was previously dealing with a left ankle injury leading up to Thursday's contest. He'll likely need to make it through morning shootaround and pregame warmups to get the green light for Sunday night.

FEBRUARY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Records season-best rebound total Konchar amassed three points (1-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 12 rebounds, five assists and one steal over 28 minutes during Friday's 121-101 loss to the Warriors.

Impact Konchar missed Memphis' previous contest due to an ankle injury, but he was able to suit up Friday and returned to the starting lineup. The fifth-year guard had a poor shooting night, but he partly made up for that by crashing the boards, leading the team with a season-high 12 rebounds. Konchar has grabbed double-digit boards in three games this season, but he's averaged just 4.7 points in those performances, highlighting the primary reason why he's on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues.

FEBRUARY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Will play Thursday Konchar (ankle) is available to face the Cavaliers on Thursday.

Impact Konchar was always trending in the right direction following his one-game absence, as he was initially deemed questionable, then upgraded to probable, and ultimately, he's been listed as available. Given the injury crisis affecting Memphis, it wouldn't be surprising if Konchar ends up being in the starting lineup to face Cleveland -- such has been the case in each of Memphis' last six games before he missed the Monday matchup against the Kings.

FEBRUARY 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Probable for Thursday Konchar (ankle) is expected to be available for Thursday's game against the Cavs, Memphis beat reporter, Sharon Brown, reports.

Impact Konchar appears to be on track to return from a one-game absence Thursday evening, which may result in Scottie Pippen Jr. returning to the second unit. Check back closer to tip-off for official word on Konchar's status.

FEBRUARY 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Thursday Konchar (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against Cleveland.

Impact Konchar was unavailable Monday against the Kings due to a left ankle sprain, and it's unclear whether he'll be able to return following a few days to rest. If he sits out once again Thursday, Jacob Gilyard and Scotty Pippen could continue to see increased run for Memphis.

JANUARY 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Monday Konchar (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Sacramento.

Impact Konchar will miss his first game since Jan. 15 due to a left ankle sprain. He had been operating as the Grizzlies' makeshift point guard amid an injury riddled stretch, but those duties will shift to Jacob Gilyard and Scotty Pippen on Monday -- who represent the only healthy guards on the roster.

JANUARY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to play Monday Konchar is doubtful for Monday's game against the Kings.

Impact Konchar was emerging as a key rotational piece for a depleted Memphis squad, averaging 6.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 2.0 blocks and 0.8 steals in 28.2 minutes over his last six appearances (all starts). However, it looks like he'll join a long list of inactive Grizzlies on Monday, so David Roddy, Jacob Gilyard, Scotty Pippen, Ziaire Williams and GG Jackson are all candidates for increased roles versus Sacramento.

JANUARY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Intriguing performance Friday Konchar registered seven points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one rebound, two assists, two blocks and three steals across 26 minutes during Friday's 107-106 victory over the Magic.

Impact Konchar played at least 26 minutes for the fifth consecutive game, delivering across a range of categories. Despite only scoring double-digits once in the past five games, he has added 23 rebounds, 16 assists and 15 combined steals and blocks. He is by no means a must-roster player but in his current role, he can be considered if points are not essential for your team.

JANUARY 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Notches first double-double of year Konchar provided 11 points (5-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 105-96 win over the Heat.

Impact In his fourth straight game as a starter, Konchar registered his first double-double of the season, with his last coming Nov. 18, 2023 against the Thunder. He's capable to contributing from time to time, and with Memphis missing Marcus Smart (finger), Desmond Bane (ankle) and Ja Morant (shoulder) for a significant amount of time, Konchar should see sustained playing time for the near future.

JANUARY 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Five rejections in Monday's win Konchar contributed six points (3-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds, four assists and five blocks across 28 minutes during Monday's 108-100 victory over the Raptors.

Impact The 27-year-old guard made a surprising defensive impact as he started his third straight game. Konchar has been pressed into a significant role with Ja Morant (shoulder), Marcus Smart (finger) and Desmond Bane (ankle) all in street clothes, but his per-36 numbers during his career don't suggest that he can be a consistent contributor in blocks, and his lack of scoring limits his fantasy utility even when he does see big minutes.

JANUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Joins starting lineup Konchar will join the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports.

Impact The Grizzlies will use their 23rd different lineup of the season. With Konchar joining the first unit, Ziaire Williams will be bumped to the bench. Konchar has two starts under his belt this campaign with averages of 3.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.0 blocks and 1.0 steals.

JANUARY 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Plays 25 minutes Konchar finished Tuesday's 120-103 victory over the Mavericks with four points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one block over 25 minutes.

Impact With multiple key contributors out, Konchar played at least 25 minutes for just the sixth time this season. Even when Konchar's held a consistent role, he's struggled to maintain fantasy relevancy, so Ja Morant's season-ending shoulder injury shouldn't make Konchar a must-roster player in standard formats.

JANUARY 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Available against Kings Konchar (illness) will be available versus the Kings on Sunday, Rob Fischer of Bally Sports Southeast reports.

Impact Konchar is back from a one-game absence, as he was a late scratch against the Clippers on Friday. With the Grizzlies getting both Luke Kennard and Derrick Rose back in action Sunday, Konchar's competition for minutes just got a lot tougher.

DECEMBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable to play Konchar (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Kings.

Impact Konchar was a late scratch for Friday's game versus the Clippers, and he remains day-to-day ahead of Sunday's contest. Luke Kennard (knee) and Derrick Rose (hamstring) are also questionable for Memphis, so suddenly there is about to be a lot more competition for playing time.

DECEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Late scratch Friday Konchar is a late scratch for Friday's game against the Clippers due to an illness.

Impact The Grizzlies will be close to full strength Friday, as Ja Morant is back from his illness. But with Konchar sidelined, we could see Vince Williams pick up more minutes. Konchar is averaging 17.3 minutes per game in December.
