Quiet end to season in loss Stevens ended with no counting stats over zero minutes during Saturday's 117-115 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

Impact Stevens briefly checked in and committed a foul in the final seconds of Saturday's elimination game loss. The 27-year-old forward totaled four points, four rebounds and an assist across 12 minutes in two appearances during the first-round series. Stevens is slated to be an unrestricted free agent during the offseason, and he finished the 2024-25 campaign with averages of 4.4 points, 2.2 rebounds and 0.5 assists across 9.1 minutes per game in 17 regular-season outings (one start).

Retreating to bench Stevens isn't in the starting five for Tuesday's Play-In Game against the Warriors, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Impact Stevens entered the starting lineup in Memphis' regular-season finale due to many of the team's typical starters sitting out but will return to the bench Tuesday. Across Stevens' last 10 appearances coming off the bench, he has averaged 2.1 points and 2.0 rebounds in 7.1 minutes.

Finishes regular season in style Stevens registered 31 points (14-25 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds and three assists over 36 minutes during Sunday's 132-97 victory over Dallas.

Impact Stevens took advantage of the fact that the Grizzlies rested most of their regular rotation members for the regular-season finale, and he stepped by posting the best scoring performance of his career. Stevens isn't expected to hold a significant role in the rotation once the playoffs begin, though. After all, even when including this outing Sunday, he averaged 4.4 points and 2.2 rebounds across 9.1 minutes per game in 17 regular-season contests (one start) this season.

Fails to score again Friday Stevens totaled zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) over zero minutes during Friday's 117-109 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Stevens' modest role continued Friday, failing to score for the seventh time in the past eight games.

Impact Stevens was back in action after missing Memphis' previous three games with right shoulder bursitis, but he barely cracked the rotation. He played 11 seconds to close out the third quarter and then didn't re-enter the game until the final 2:13 of the contest, when the Grizzlies trailed by 20 points and most other key contributors had already been shut down for the night.

Questionable vs. Oklahoma City Stevens (shoulder) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Thunder.

Unlikely to play Tuesday Stevens (shoulder) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against Utah.

Sticking around in Memphis The Grizzlies will sign Stevens to a contract for the remainder of the 2024-25 season once his 10-day contract expires, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Stevens is on his second 10-day deal with the Grizzlies, and he's performed well enough to warrant a longer contract. The 27-year-old wing has appeared in six games for Memphis and is averaging 4.0 points and 3.0 rebounds across 9.8 minutes. While he likely won't garner a large enough role to be fantasy relevant, Stevens will provide some additional depth and defensive expertise to the Grizzlies' bench.

MARCH 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Very productive off bench Stevens ended with 13 points (4-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 22 minutes during Monday's 120-118 victory over the Suns.

Impact This was Stevens' best performance with the Grizzlies, as he stepped up with the team missing several key rotation players who were held out with injuries and rest purposes. Stevens' second 10-day contract will be expiring after March 12, however, and it will be interesting to see if the franchise attempts to sign him to a standard deal.
