Olivier-Maxence Prosper News, Rumors, Updates - Memphis Grizzlies

Season-high 14 points off bench Prosper recorded 14 points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-9 FT), three rebounds and one steal in 21 minutes during Thursday's 121-115 win over the Thunder.

Impact Prosper may have lost his spot in Dallas' starting five to Spencer Dinwiddie against a smaller Thunder lineup, but that didn't stop him from scoring a season-high 14 points off the bench during a busy night at the foul line. Prosper has seen an uptick in playing time over his last six games, where he's averaging 7.0 points, 3.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 0.5 steals in 16.6 minutes. With the Mavericks' frontcourt dealing with several injuries at the moment, the 2023 first-rounder could continue witnessing a bump in minutes going forward.

Returns to bench Thursday Prosper will come off the bench in Thursday's game against Oklahoma City, Mavericks radio play-by-play broadcaster Chuck Cooperstein reports.

Impact Kessler Edwards will supplant Prosper in the starting five on Thursday. The 22-year-old received his second start over his two-year career in Wednesday's win over Utah with Klay Thompson (ankle) and Naji Marshall (illness) sidelined, during which he recorded four points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists across 25 minutes.

Making second career start Prosper is part of the Mavericks' starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Minnesota, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Impact Prosper will make his first start since Apr. 14, 2024, stepping into a larger role due to the absences of Klay Thompson (ankle) and Naji Marshall (illness). The second-year forward has averaged 6.0 points and 4.0 rebounds in 13.0 minutes during his last four appearances.

Logs 10 minutes in loss Prosper provided one point (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist across 10 minutes during Wednesday's 119-116 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact Prosper played at least 10 minutes for the second straight game, assuming a larger role due to the recent injuries to other players. Despite featuring in the rotation on a relatively consistent basis, Prosper is producing averages of just 2.8 points and 2.3 rebounds in 9.1 minutes per game.

Plays 12 minutes Prosper had six points (2-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist over 12 minutes during Tuesday's 118-104 loss to the Thunder.

Impact With P.J. Washington (illness) out of the lineup, Prosper saw a small handful of extra minutes. He's been out of the rotation for most of the season, and he's rumored to be on the trade block if the Mavericks look to upgrade their roster at the deadline.

DECEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Garbage-time appearance Prosper ended Tuesday's 132-91 win over the Pelicans with three points (1-1 FG, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one steal across four minutes.

Impact Prosper was rolled out during garbage time, a trend that seems unlikely to change anytime soon. As a player who is not an every-night part of the rotation, Prosper is averaging just 1.8 points and 1.4 rebounds in 6.1 minutes per game. Barring multiple injuries to players ahead of him, there is no reason to think he will be used in a meaningful role this season.

NOVEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Has team option picked up The Mavericks exercised Prosper's third-year rookie option for 2025-26, the team announced Wednesday.

Impact Prosper was quiet in his 40 regular-season appearances as a rookie, averaging 3.0 points and 2.0 rebounds across 8.4 minutes. However, the Mavericks have opted to keep him around for another season, picking up his team option for 2025-26. Prosper will compete with Maxi Kleber and Naji Marshall for minutes off the bench this season.

Retreats to bench Monday Prosper will slide to the bench in Monday's preseason matchup against the Clippers, Justin Russo of the 'Clip & Roll' podcast reports.

Impact Prosper got the spot start in Thursday's loss to the Jazz, and he amassed a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds. However, the 22-year-old will slide back to the bench with P.J. Washington making his return to game action after nursing a hip injury to begin the preseason.

OCTOBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Takes advantage of spot start Prosper delivered 10 points (3-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 10 rebounds and an assist across 33 minutes in Thursday's 107-102 preseason loss to the Jazz.

Impact Prosper got the start in the frontcourt alongside Dereck Lively, and there's no question the second-year forward took advantage of the opportunity. As good as he looked alongside Lively, Prosper's path at regular minutes in the regular season is blocked, meaning he shouldn't have any value in most fantasy formats regardless of how good he looks during his brief preseason cameos.

OCTOBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Gets starting nod Prosper is in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason game against the Jazz, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Three swipes vs. Memphis Prosper logged 14 points (4-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-9 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 31 minutes in Monday's 121-116 preseason loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact Prosper got an extended look in the Mavericks' preseaon opener as multiple starters sat out of Monday's contest. He was one of four reserve players to score in double digits, and his three steals were second on the team behind Jazian Gortman (four). Prosper saw inconsistent playing time during the 2023-24 regular season, and he only appeared in two playoff games, both of which occurred during garbage time.

Upgraded to questionable Prosper (ankle) is questionable for Game 1 of the NBA Finals against Boston on Thursday, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Prosper has been ruled out ahead of every postseason game thus, so his upgrade to questionable is noteworthy. While he's unlikely to play a significant role in the NBA Finals, the rookie could be another body to throw at Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, as Prosper's 6-foot-7 frame allows him to cause havoc defensively.

Impact Prosper hasn't been available since Game 3 of the Mavericks' first-round series with the Clippers after spraining his left ankle in a practice leading up to that contest. The rookie first-round pick hadn't been a regular part of the rotation during the regular season, so his continued absence should go largely unnoticed.
