Olivier-Maxence Prosper - Scores nine off bench Prosper recorded nine points (4-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt), one assist and one block in 12 minutes during Wednesday's 122-118 preseason loss to Orlando.

Impact Prosper provided efficient scoring inside the arc while contributing a blocked shot in limited action. The former Mavericks forward will look to build on the performance as he competes for a consistent role in Memphis' frontcourt rotation ahead of the regular season.

Taylor Hendricks - Posts 12 points in loss Hendricks supplied 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds, an assist and a blocked shot in 11 minutes during Wednesday's 122-118 preseason loss to the Magic.

Impact Hendricks gave Memphis an efficient boost off the bench, but his rebound totals paled in comparison to his reseason debut. After averaging 10.6 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 26 games with Memphis last season, he's projected to play second fiddle to Cameron Boozer at the four spot.

Cameron Boozer - Posts diverse line in loss Boozer registered 16 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 22 minutes in Wednesday's 122-118 preseason loss to the Magic.

Impact The No. 3 overall pick in the 2026 NBA draft possesses a superb all-around game that should earn him a spot in Memphis' starting lineup immediately. That kind of exposure should put him squarely in the Rookie of the Year conversation as the season gets underway.

GG Jackson - Logs 15 points from bench Jackson posted 15 points (5-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and a steal across 14 minutes during Wednesday's 122-118 preseason loss to the Magic.

Impact Jackson followed up a strong preseason debut with another strong scoring night and also contributed on the glass. He's in the final year of his contract and fighting for minutes in a crowded wing rotation that added Jerami Grant in the offseason, so continuing his steady preseason work is his best chance to move up the depth chart.

Impact Jerome scored efficiently, did a nice job distributing the rock, and finished without committing a single turnover. He's looked great as Memphis' starting point guard through these first two preseason games and appears primed for a breakout season.

Isaiah Stewart - Won't play Wednesday Stewart (ankle) didn't participate in Tuesday's practice and will not play in Wednesday's preseason game against the Magic, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports.

Zach Edey - Will play Wednesday Edey (ankle) will play in Wednesday's preseason game against the Magic, Chris Herrington of The Daily Memphian reports.

Impact Although he'll play limited minutes Wednesday, it appears Edey has made swift progress in his recovery from elbow and ankle surgeries after the Grizzlies initially had Opening Night as the big man's target for a return. Fantasy managers should feel a bit better about drafting Edey at his ADP now that he's healthy.
