Vince Williams Jr. Fantasy Stats

Memphis Grizzlies guard Vince Williams Jr. is being traded to the Utah Jazz, according to ESPN's Shams Charania, as part of the larger deal for Jaren Jackson Jr. Williams will move west along with Jackson, John Konchar, and Jock Landale in exchange for Walter Clayton Jr., Kyle Anderson, Taylor Hendricks, Georges Niang, and three first-round picks. Williams should carve out a role in the Utah backcourt, but will play more off the ball with Keyonte George and Isaiah Collier dominating playing time at the point guard position. However, when one of those point guards sits, as has often been the case in Utah this season, Williams could be a sneaky spot start in fantasy basketball, just as he was as a member of the Grizzlies.

Memphis Grizzlies shooting guard Vince Williams Jr. (knee) is available to play Friday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Williams returned Monday, playing 22 minutes and recording 15 points, six rebounds, and five assists. After missing the second half of Tuesday's back-to-back, Williams is set to play and have a big role against the defending champions. With Ja Morant (calf), Scotty Pippen Jr. (toe), Ty Jerome (calf), and John Konchar (thumb) all out, and rookie Cedric Coward (ankle) listed as a game-time decision, Williams may have to handle a heavy workload despite just returning from injury. Fantasy managers can rely on the 25-year-old guard to provide some value against the Thunder, who have been struggling as of late.

Memphis Grizzlies shooting guard Vince Williams Jr. (knee) is returning to the lineup on Tuesday as the Grizzlies face the San Antonio Spurs. Williams has missed the previous eight games with left patellar tendinitis but is off the injury report and set to play. The fourth-year guard has averaged 7.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 4.9 assists in 22 games this season, starting in just half of them. With Ja Morant (calf) ruled out for Tuesday, Williams could have a legitimate role despite likely seeing a minutes restriction. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Morant's status moving forward, as Williams could become a key option for the Grizzlies if Morant ends up missing more time.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Vince Williams Jr. (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Lakers, extending his absence to eight straight contests due to left knee tendinitis. With Williams still sidelined, Memphis continues to lean on its depleted wing rotation. Cedric Coward has been the most productive beneficiary, averaging 14.6 points, 7.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.3 three-pointers in 27.3 minutes over his last seven games. Cam Spencer has added steady playmaking, while Jaylen Wells and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope remain situational fantasy options in deeper formats.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Vince Williams Jr. (knee) is out for Tuesday's game against the 76ers, making it six straight games the versatile contributor has missed with this lingering left knee injury. Since Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) is also out, there will be even more time available on the wings for Cedric Coward and Jaylen Wells, as the Grizzlies look to fill in for KCP and Williams. The next chance for Williams to get back on the floor will be Friday against the Lakers.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Vince Williams Jr. (knee) will remain on the shelf Sunday against the Washington Wizards, missing a fifth consecutive game. The 25-year-old exited the lineup earlier this month with left patellar tendinitis, and his return date remains uncertain. Cam Spencer has recently taken on a larger role in the backcourt rotation and will continue to see plenty of minutes, even with Ja Morant back in the mix. Spencer has logged a couple of double-doubles in December, averaging 17.8 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 7.3 assists.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Vince Williams Jr. (knee) will miss his fourth consecutive game when his team hosts the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday. The 25-year-old is dealing with left patellar tendinitis, and a timeline for his return remains unclear. Williams recently moved back to a bench role before his injury. He'll have plenty of company on the sidelines, as he is one of six Grizzlies ruled out Friday. Cam Spencer, Jaylen Wells, and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope will see more playing time, especially if Ja Morant (questionable, ankle) and Cedric Coward (questionable, ankle) are inactive.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Vince Williams Jr. (knee) will be out of action for a third consecutive game on Tuesday against the Utah Jazz. He is dealing with left patellar tendinitis, and it's unclear if Williams Jr. can return to the lineup before the calendar flips to 2026. Williams Jr. has joined a long list of injuries for Memphis, making players like Cam Spencer, Jaylen Wells, and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope more appealing fantasy options.

Memphis Grizzlies shooting guard Vince Williams Jr. (heel) will miss Friday's matchup with the Heat as he continues to recover. Williams also missed the team's opening day 128-122 win over the Pelicans. The former second-round pick averaged 6.6 points and 3.6 rebounds in just 18.5 minutes per game last season. Williams will likely operate this season as a glue-guy off the bench who is capable of chipping in rebounds and assists despite shooting just 40.1% from the field last season. Williams can be left on waivers throughout the early portion of the season, until we see if his role grows throughout the season.
