Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks (ankle) is expected to miss multiple weeks of action. The organization announced Brooks could miss 3-5 weeks following a left ankle sprain during Saturday's game. Brooks was unable to put any weight on his foot while being taken back to the locker room. This is a tough blow to the Grizzlies who needed Brooks right now. De'Anthony Melton and Ziaire Williams are both expected to step up in the absence of Brooks. Melton is the much better option between the two players. He was already bringing deep league value, but should have more involvement now. Williams might sneak onto the deep league radar, but is mainly someone worth monitoring and not a must-have player.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Brooks has cleared the league's health and safety protocols, but his status for this matchup remains uncertain. The team is likely going to wait until closer to game time before making a final decision. Desmond Bane would be a popular streaming option and DFS choice, assuming Brooks sits out. Otherwise, his value is likely to drop with Brooks taking over his spot in the starting five. Fantasy managers will have to check back later for another update.

Memphis Grizzlies guard De'Anthony Melton and forward Dillon Brooks have been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Both players have entered the league's health and safety protocols. This is a shame since Brooks has been a top-100 player this season. The absence of these two will mean a spike in usage for Desmond Bane. He'll certainly be worth a look for DFS contests on Sunday. He'll get plenty of run while the Grizzlies are shorthanded. Also, Tyus Jones and John Konchar, and Kyle Anderson should see a boost. Jones has quietly been solid this season and could have some sneaky streaming value and DFS appeal for Sunday.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks produced a big performance on Sunday against Portland, shooting 12-for-25 from the field en route to a career-high 37 points in a 105-100 loss. He finished 4-for-10 from downtown and nailed all nine of his free throws. Brooks capped things off with three rebounds, three assists and one steal while committing zero turnovers in 35 minutes. The 25-year-old is heading into Christmas in fine form, having scored at least 22 points in five consecutive games. He's nicely set up for another productive night on Monday against the Thunder, who boast a lowly 108.0 defensive efficiency.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks brought hot hands to Monday's meeting with the Sixers, scoring a team-high 23 points on 9-for-15 shooting in just 27 minutes. He finished 2-for-5 from downtown and netted three of his four free throws while tallying six rebounds, two assists and one steal with one turnover. Brooks has gone for 20-plus points in three of his last four outings, and he started a juicy week of games here. Memphis will have two matches against Portland and meet Sacramento in between. Both teams are very weak defensively and a scorer like Brooks will surely find ways to take advantage of it.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks is available for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. He sat out of Thursday's game due to COVID protocols, but will return for this contest. His return should push De'Anthony Melton out of the starting five, but he could still have deep league value off the bench. Brooks could be asked to do more on offense with Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) doubtful to play. That being said, Brooks could be an interesting DFS option for Saturday's slate.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks played a big part on the offensive end in Monday's win over Miami, scoring 21 points and delivering eight assists. He notched three rebounds as well and had two steals and three turnovers in 36 minutes with 8-for-21 shooting. Brooks' shooting was disappointing here, but he actually went a solid 3-for-6 from behind the arc. The 25-year-old had managed just 22 points in his first two outings of the month and he certainly got going here again. Brooks and the Grizzlies have three more games this week, starting with Wednesday's matchup against Dallas. The Mavericks can look very good at times on the defensive end and they limited Brooks to just 5-for-12 shooting and 11 points at the weekend.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks provided a game-high 21 points on 8-for-17 shooting in Sunday's 128-101 blowout win over Sacramento. Everybody seemed to have struggled from the field in the game and Brooks was no different, finishing 1-for-7 from three-point range. He grabbed six rebounds and posted one assist with two steals in 21 minutes of action. This was the first game for the Grizzlies without Ja Morant (knee) and there will be plenty of those during the upcoming weeks. Brooks is already having a nice season on the offensive end, but he should now carry an even bigger load in the attack.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He has missed each of the last two games while dealing with a hamstring issue. His absence has resulted in Kyle Anderson moving into the starting five. There is some streaming appeal for Anderson, but Ja Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Desmond Bane would be the ones benefiting with more shots. Fantasy managers would have to check back on Wednesday for more information.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Brooks was not expected to play, but this will hurt more with De'Anthony Melton (groin) sidelined as well. Desmond Bone will likely see significant playing time and have favorable fantasy value. Kyle Anderson might end up benefiting the most, so he'll be worth streaming or using in DFS contests for Saturday. It's uncertain how long Brooks will be out, but Anderson should be rostered in most formats right now.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks led all scorers with 23 points in Saturday's 112-101 loss to the Pelicans, shooting 8-for-18 from the field and 5-for-5 at the line. He made two triples with four attempts and collected five rebounds with three turnovers in 31 minutes. This was only the second appearance of the campaign for Brooks after he missed the start of the season with a fractured left hand. He's made an encouraging start to the year, as the 25-year-old notched 20 points in his season debut. The Grizzlies start next week with a matchup against the struggling Rockets, which puts Brooks in a very nice spot to register another solid scoring performance.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks will get the start in Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Brooks scored 20 points in his season debut earlier this week, so the Grizzlies will ride the hot hand. De'Anthony Melton will head to the second unit with Brooks starting on Saturday. Fantasy managers should expect Melton to have a reduced role, but don't cut him yet. Brooks is worth rostering due to his hot start, but the Grizzlies could change things up at any minute. It's tough to trust Brooks in DFS contests because he is a streaky shooter, but he'll be fine for points leagues.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks (hand) isn't listed on the league's official injury report ahead of Saturday's matchup against New Orleans. The 25-year-old missed his first 10 games of the year while working his way back from a fractured left hand. He returned on Wednesday against Charlotte and looked great, scoring 20 points throughout 26 minutes. Nonetheless, while it's good to see Brooks back on the floor, it will potentially come at the expense of a reduced workload for De'Anthony Melton and Desmond Bane.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks (hand) will miss Friday's game against the Suns. Brooks had just made his return to the court after missing the start of the season, so it makes sense for the Grizzlies to take it slow with him, especially in the second half of a back-to-back. The 25-year-old looked good in his first action of the year, scoring 20 points with four triples and two steals. Brooks' absence should mean more opportunities for Desmond Bane and De'Anthony Melton in a good matchup for opposing shooting guards.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks posted a strong 20-point performance during his season debut in a loss to the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday. The 25-year-old returned to the lineup after missing the first 10 games of the season with a broken left hand. Brooks shot 8-for-17 from the field, including 4-for-7 from three-point range. The Oregon product also chipped in with four rebounds, six assists, and two steals during 26 minutes. Brooks' return further complicates the Memphis backcourt, as guards Desmond Bane and De'Anthony Melton have had strong starts to the season. Coach Taylor Jenkins will surely ride the hot hand, and it'll be extremely difficult for all three to have sustained value the entire season.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks (hand), tagged as questionable, will make his season debut in Wednesday's game against the Hornets. Brooks hasn't played yet, as he's been recovering from offseason surgery to repair a broken left hand, though he'll make his return in front of the home crowd, albeit in a limited role. The 25-year-old will come off the bench, making him a less appealing DFS option. De'Anthony Melton figures to remain a starter, though he'll take a hit in the minutes' department once Brooks returns to the starting five.

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 forward Dillon Brooks (hand) won't play on Monday against the Timberwolves. Fortunately, the veteran is close to returning after sustaining a fractured left hand before the regular season. Nonetheless, it will be business as usual against Minnesota, with De'Anthony Melton getting some extra run as a member of the starting lineup. The 23-year-old is currently having the best season of his young career, averaging 11.7 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.6 steals throughout 28.1 minutes of action. As a result, Melton has earned a spot in some fantasy lineups, especially for managers in category formats looking for a bump on the defensive end.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks (hand) remains out ahead of Friday's matchup with Washington. Brooks hasn't played yet this year as he continues to recover from a fracture in his left hand. However, he has been practicing, so it appears as if his return is imminent. In the meantime, De'Anthony Melton will remain in the starting lineup, with the 23-year-old averaging 12.6 points, 4.9 assists, and 1.6 steals while filling in for Brooks this season. The contest against the Wizards is anticipated to feature plenty of scoring, so Melton should be on the radar in all fantasy formats.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks (hand) is nearing a return to the team. Brooks practiced with the team's G-League affiliate- and the team announced on Twitter that Brooks would be assigned to play in a simulated game. It's not clear how much of a build-up he'll require, as he has yet to take part in any game action yet this year, though it's a great sign to see him so close to returning. Brooks averaged career-highs in points, assists, and steals while draining nearly two threes per game last year. He should be scooped up if available on waivers. Brooks' return could mean that both Desmond Bane and De'Anthony Melton take hits in the minutes' department, though both should remain solid plays for fantasy purposes.
