Memphis Grizzlies power forward Kyle Anderson (back) and small forward Ziaire Williams (knee) will both miss Thursday's contest against the Thunder. Anderson's absence will be his first of the season, while Williams' climbs to two with a sore left knee. Without either in the frontcourt, John Konchar and Brandon Clarke could take on added duties within the second unit. Also down Ja Morant (knee), Memphis will have ample elevated offensive opportunities against a Thunder squad that ranks near the middle of the pace in defensive efficiency (105.4) this season. The next chance for Anderson or Williams to return comes Saturday vs. Dallas.

Memphis Grizzlies shooting guard Dillon Brooks (hand) and small forward Ziaire Williams (wrist) have both been tagged as questionable for Wednesday's game against Charlotte. Brooks is waiting to make his season debut after he had offseason surgery to repair a broken left hand. The 25-year-old averaged a career-high 17.2 points per game last season and stands to be a rosterable fantasy commodity in all but the shallowest of season-long leagues. Williams has played a minimal role to begin his professional career, although his spot in the rotation could be in jeopardy upon Brooks' return, whenever that comes. Check back prior to tip-off to get the final word on both players.

Memphis Grizzlies small forward Ziaire Williams (wrist) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He is dealing with a sore right wrist and the team might need to see how he feels during shootaround prior to Monday's game before making a decision on him. If the rookie is forced to sit, Kyle Anderson could see an increase in minutes. Williams has played about 18 minutes per game this year. He's averaged 5.7 points and 1.4 three-pointers per game while shooting just 33.3% from the field.
