GAME LOG
Toby Okani - Back in starting lineup Okani is in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the Nuggets on Wednesday.
Impact Okani will start for the second time this season and will join Walter Clayton, Jahmai Mashack, Cedric Coward and Taylor Hendricks in the lineup. Okani made his first career NBA start against the Bucks on Sunday, when he played 41 minutes and finished with nine points, three rebounds, one steal and one three-pointer in a 131-115 loss.
APRIL 9 • ROTOWIRE
Jahmai Mashack - Starting vs. Denver Mashack will start Wednesday's game against Denver.
Impact Mashack will return from a two-game absence due to a concussion and step into the starting five. As a starter this season (four games), the rookie second-rounder has averaged 10.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 steals and 1.8 assists in 30.0 minutes per contest.
APRIL 9 • ROTOWIRE
Lucas Williamson - Back to bench Wednesday Williamson is not in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the Nuggets on Wednesday.
Impact Williamson made his first career start against the Cavaliers on Monday, when he played 40 minutes and logged 17 points, five rebounds, four assists, three steals and five three-pointers in a 142-126 loss. He'll retreat to the bench for Wednesday's contest while the Grizzlies roll with a starting five of Walter Clayton, Jahmai Mashack, Cedric Coward, Toby Okani and Taylor Hendricks.
APRIL 9 • ROTOWIRE
Olivier-Maxence Prosper - Not playing Wednesday Prosper (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Denver.
Impact Prosper's absence comes as no surprise, given that he was tagged as doubtful on Tuesday's injury report due to right ankle soreness. He's been in the Grizzlies' starting lineup since the All-Star break, so Taylor Hendricks and Taj Gibson should both see more run time against the Nuggets. Prosper's next opportunity to play is Friday against the Jazz.
APRIL 9 • ROTOWIRE
Rayan Rupert - Unavailable Wednesday Rupert (two-way) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.
Impact Rupert will be held out of Wednesday's contest as the Grizzlies manage his availability while he remains signed to a two-way deal. He'll be eligible to play in both of Memphis' final two games after Wednesday.
APRIL 9 • ROTOWIRE
Jahmai Mashack - Will play Wednesday Mashack (concussion) is available for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.
Impact The rookie second-rounder missed the Grizzlies' last two games due to a concussion, but he has cleared the league's protocol and will return for Wednesday's contest. In 16 games since the All-Star break, Mashack has average 7.0 points, 2.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.1 steals over 25.6 minutes per contest.

Cam Spencer - Ruled out for Wednesday Spencer (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.
Impact Spencer continues to deal with lower-back soreness and will miss his third game this month. His next chance to play will come Friday in Utah. In the meantime, Lucas Williamson, Adama Bal and Rayan Rupert are candidates for increased playing time for the injury-riddled Grizzlies.
APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE
GG Jackson - Sitting out Wednesday Jackson (knee) is out for Wednesday's game versus Denver.
Impact Jackson continues to move in and out of the lineup due to nagging left knee soreness. With Jackson sidelined Wednesday, fantasy managers should expect Taylor Hendricks, Toby Okani and Dariq Whitehead to each take on meaningful playing time in the frontcourt.
APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE
Taj Gibson - Not listed on injury report Gibson (foot) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's meeting with the Nuggets.
Impact Gibson is set to return from a one-game absence Wednesday, and he should play limited minutes off the bench. Gibson is averaging 3.5 points and 2.6 rebounds per game this season.
APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE
Taylor Hendricks - Not listed on injury report Hendricks (thumb) isn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.
Impact Hendricks sat out Monday's loss to the Cavaliers -- the second leg of a back-to-back -- due to a right thumb sprain. However, he's set to return to action Wednesday and should play a sizable role with Olivier-Maxence Prosper (ankle) doubtful and GG Jackson (knee) out.
APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE
Javon Small - Out again Wednesday Small (thigh) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game in Denver.
Impact This will be Small's third consecutive game on the inactive list, and it's not encouraging that he continues to get ruled out 24 hours in advance of tipoff. For now, he should be considered doubtful for Friday's game in Utah.
APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE
Olivier-Maxence Prosper - Doubtful for Wednesday Prosper (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.
Impact Prosper is expected to miss Wednesday's contest due to right ankle soreness. If the 23-year-old forward is ultimately ruled out, Taylor Hendricks, Taj Gibson and Toby Okani would be candidates to see increased playing time.
APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE
Jahmai Mashack - Questionable for Wednesday Mashack (concussion) is questionable for Wednesday's game in Denver.
Impact Mashack has missed the past two games due to the concussion protocol testing, but this is the first time he's received the questionable tag since going down, which indicates progress. If Mashack is cleared for Wednesday's game, he could impact Cam Spencer and Walter Clayton's minutes.
APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE
Ty Jerome - Won't play Wednesday Jerome (ankle) is out for Wednesday's game versus Denver.
Impact A left ankle sprain is costing Jerome a ninth consecutive contest. With Memphis wrapping up the final stretch of a losing season, Walter Clayton and Rayan Rupert should see plenty of action at point guard Wednesday.
