The Memphis Grizzlies enter 2025/26 with plenty of uncertainty for fantasy basketball managers. Ja Morant is back under a new coach, Jaren Jackson Jr. could take on an expanded role, and Zach Edey faces questions about his health to start the season. With multiple big men injured early, the Grizzlies’ frontcourt rotation is one of the toughest puzzles in fantasy drafts.

Josh Lloyd, host of Locked On Fantasy Basketball, breaks down the Grizzlies’ projected lineup and rotation, weighing Ja Morant’s upside, Jackson’s evolving responsibilities, and Edey’s long-term value. He also highlights underrated fantasy options like Scottie Pippen Jr. and potential breakouts Jaylen Wells and Vince Williams Jr.

With Memphis’ history of murky injury timelines and a roster in transition, drafting Grizzlies players requires careful strategy. Josh provides the insights you need to spot value, avoid traps, and get an edge in your fantasy basketball leagues.
