Thu Mar 1920:28John Konchar Out Thursday Against Bucks
Utah Jazz forward John Konchar (quadriceps) will miss Thursday's game against the Bucks after returning from a three-game calf injury absence Wednesday and picking up a right quad contusion in his first game back. His absence should open a few extra rotation minutes, with rookie forward Ace Bailey positioned to benefit after posting 17 points with five three-pointers, two rebounds, two assists, and one block in 25 minutes Wednesday. Bailey profiles as a viable points and threes streamer during the fantasy playoffs, though Utah's tendency for surprise rest days adds some risk. Cody Williams and Kyle Filipowski should continue seeing steady minutes with the rotation still thinned by injuries.

Fri Mar 1308:27John Konchar to Miss Second Straight Game
Utah Jazz guard/forward John Konchar (calf) will sit out Friday's game against Portland, marking his second straight absence as he continues to deal with a left calf strain. His role has been modest, but the missed time helps solidify minutes for Utah's younger wings. Brice Sensabaugh capitalized on the last game with 29 points, six three-pointers, five rebounds, and five assists in 30 minutes, while rookie Ace Bailey added 21 points and five three-pointers in 36 minutes. Both should remain fantasy-relevant even when Konchar is active, given Utah's thin rotation, though his absence does open the door for slightly larger roles and more secure minutes.

Sun Feb 119:10John Konchar Unavailable Monday
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward John Konchar (neck) will sit out a second straight game on Monday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 25-year-old is dealing with an anterior triangle contusion. Recently, Konchar has held a significant role in the rotation, logging 20-plus minutes in each of his last five appearances. Konchar's absence creates playing opportunities for Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Javon Small, but neither has demonstrated enough quality to be viable fantasy options.

Fri Jan 919:07John Konchar Ruled Out for Friday
Memphis Grizzlies forward John Konchar (thumb) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Konchar suffered a thumb injury that required surgery in early December. Although he was not quite ready to play on Friday, he should return soon. The seventh-year veteran has averaged 3.0 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.2 assists in 13 minutes per game. With Konchar and multiple key players for the Grizzlies out, expect Cam Spencer and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope to see an uptick in minutes against the defending champions. Konchar will look to return to the lineup on Sunday when Memphis faces off against the Brooklyn Nets.

Mon Dec 15 202521:18John Konchar to Be Re-Evaluated in Three Weeks
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward John Konchar (thumb) will be re-evaluated in three weeks, the team announced on Monday.

Thu Dec 11 202517:02John Konchar Will Undergo Thumb Surgery

The injury occurred during Sunday's 119-96 win over the Trail Blazers. Konchar on the shelf for an extended period won't make much of a difference in fantasy basketball, as he is averaging just 13.0 minutes per contest across 22 games this season.

Wed Nov 6 202415:28John Konchar Doubtful For Wednesday Night, Will Miss Fourth Straight Game
Memphis Grizzlies guard John Konchar (quad) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday night's matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. This will be Konchar's fourth straight game missed thanks to a right quad contusion he's been dealing with. The 28-year-old also missed two other games this season with a heel injury and has only been able to play in three games this season. He's averaged just five points per game this season while taking just six shots total in the three games he's played in. Fantasy managers with Konchar on their roster likely can cut bait until he gets on a hot streak given his lack of playing time so far. Those looking for an option off Memphis' bench should look to Scotty Pippen Jr. as the leader for the second unit. Jake LaRavia may be a sneaky second option also, averaging 7.4 PPG and 5.9 RPG.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward John Konchar (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup against Milwaukee. He was back from a two-game absence on Wednesday versus Brooklyn, but Kochar is battling a quadriceps contusion and will step aside once again.

His absence is another blow for the team after Marcus Smart (ankle) and Desmond Bane (oblique) were already ruled out earlier. Memphis' bench mob appears set to play a large role in Thursday's contest, with so many regulars out.

Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports that Memphis Grizzlies guardJohn Konchar (foot) will suit up against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday. Konchar has missed two consecutive contests due to right foot soreness. The Grizzlies are in the front half of aback-to-back set, so his workload will likely be limited. Ja Morant (thigh) was also cleared to play and will join Konchar in the team's backcourt.

Thu Apr 11 202422:20John Konchar Will Miss Another Game Friday
Memphis Grizzlies guard John Konchar (heel) will not suit up for Friday's contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. The 28-year-old has not played since March 22 and this will be his tenth straight game he will be out as he tries to recover from plantar fasciitis in his right heel. There are only two games left on the schedule for the injury-plagued Grizzlies, and there is a good chance Konchar will not play again this year. Memphis will likely have a tight rotation of young players to close out the season, including GG Jackson II, Jake LaRavia, and Scotty Pippen Jr.

Injuries are nothing new for the Grizzlies this season, and Friday will be another tough game, as Desmond Bane (back), Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps), and Santi Aldama (foot) are already ruled out for Friday, too. Memphis will likely continue to count on Jake LaRavia and GG Jackson II to take on prominent roles.

Tue Apr 2 202421:46John Konchar Doubtful Against Milwaukee
Memphis Grizzlies forward/guard John Konchar (heel) is doubtful for Wednesday's game versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Konchar is expected to miss his fourth consecutive game due to a right plantar fasciitis. Memphis' roster dealing with many more injuries saw Konchar playing 30 minutes per game over his last ten games, with averages of 5.7 points and 4.4 rebounds. Luke Kennard, GG Jackson II, and Scotty Pippen Jr. are expected to see more minutes in the likely absence of Konchar. The reserve will attempt to return before the season ends, further cementing his role on a team planning to achieve bigger goals next season.

Mon Apr 1 202418:54John Konchar Downgraded To Out On Monday
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward John Konchar (foot) has been downgraded from doubtful to out for Monday's contest against Detroit. He will miss a fourth consecutive contest. With Konchar absent, Scotty Pippen Jr. will continue to start for the Grizzlies, with Jordan Goodwin and Luke Kennard also in a position to play larger roles on the backcourt. The Pistons have been the worst team in the Association this season, and Memphis should do plenty of damage against them on Monday.

Sun Mar 31 202421:46John Konchar Draws Another Doubtful Status
Memphis Grizzlies forward John Konchar (foot) is considered doubtful for the second game in a row while he deals with plantar fasciitis in his right foot. This type of injury usually takes a while to fully heal, so it might be a while until Konchar can return to game action. He's headed to his fourth consecutive missed game and the Grizzlies are already eliminated from playoff contention. While he watches from the sidelines, Luke Kennard and Scottie Pippen Jr. are the two starters that would make the best streaming options. Lamar Stevens and Jordan Goodwin should get some added minutes off of the bench but are riskier options.

Fri Mar 29 202417:51John Konchar Doubtful For Saturday's Action
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward John Konchar (heel) will likely miss a third consecutive game on Saturday versus the Magic. He's on the injury report as doubtful with right heel soreness. Konchar's absence increases the fantasy value of Scotty Pippen Jr., GG Jackson II, and Jake LaRavia. Luke Kennard, who's returning to the lineup on Saturday after sitting out five games, also has a better opportunity to make an impact with Konchar unavailable. If Konchar can't return on Saturday, he will have to wait for Monday's matchup against Detroit to get his next opportunity.

Wed Mar 27 202418:54John Konchar Downgraded To Out
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward John Konchar (heel) won't return to the lineup on Wednesday versus the Lakers. The team has downgraded Konchar from doubtful to out, meaning he sits out a second consecutive contest. With Luke Kennard (personal) also unavailable, Scotty Pippen Jr. and Jordan Goodwin get extra work on the Grizzlies backcourt. Both have gotten some playing time as starters recently, although Goodwin didn't see any action in the last game against Denver, and it's very difficult to predict how the rotation will work out on Wednesday.

Fri Mar 22 202411:37John Konchar, Scottie Pippen Jr. Questionable Versus Spurs
Memphis Grizzlies guards John Konchar (heel) and Scottie Pippen Jr. (shin) have both received questionable tags ahead of their Friday night matchup against the San Antonio Spurs. Luke Kennard (personal) and Lamar Stevens (adductor) have already been ruled out while Desmond Bane (back) and Vince Williams Jr. (knee) are both listed as doubtful. If Konchar and Pippen can both be upgraded to active ahead of tip-off, they'd be in line for a lot of added minutes and they both might even join the starting five together. Trey Jamison, Jake LaRavia, and GG Jackson II are all solid streaming options if Konchar and Pippen have to watch from the sidelines.
