Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward John Konchar (knee) will be active on Friday against the Dallas Mavericks. He didn't play on Wednesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder due to knee soreness, but Memphis has upgraded his status from questionable to available for Friday's game. Konchar currently serves as a depth player for the Grizzlies and is not expected to have a significant role on Friday. So far this season, he has averaged 2.5 points and 3.4 rebounds in 12.8 minutes per game.
John 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 Monday's matchup against Brooklyn. Konchar will miss his third consecutive contest, battling a contusion in the right quadriceps. The 28-year-old has averaged 5.0 points and 4.7 rebounds in 19.0 minutes this season. His absence is another blow for the team as injuries continue to pile up. Jaylen Wells and Scotty Pippen will likely continue to see increased roles as they have recently.
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. The 28-year-old has averaged 5.0 points and 4.7 rebounds in 19.0 minutes this season. 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 guard John 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 a back-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.
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.
Memphis Grizzlies guard John Konchar (heel) will not play in Friday's game versus the Detroit Pistons. He will miss his sixth straight game as he continues to be hampered by plantar fasciitis in his right heel. Konchar last played against the Spurs on March 22, and it is unclear when he will return to action. 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.
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.
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.
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.
