Thu Apr 11 | 20:28 | Santi Aldama To Miss Friday’s Game |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (foot) will not play in Friday's contest versus the Los Angeles Lakers. He will miss his sixth straight game because of a right foot strain. Aldama last took the court on April 1 against the Detroit Pistons. The Grizzlies are not in playoff contention, so there is no need to rush Aldama back onto the court. Memphis will continue to finish the season with a depleted roster. Brandon Clarke (hand) is also out for Friday's game, so expect Trey Jemison to lead the frontcourt again after playing 36 minutes last game. |

Fri Apr 5 | 10:57 | Santi Aldama Ruled Out Against Detroit |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (foot) will miss another game on Friday after getting ruled out due to right foot soreness. At this part of the season, the Grizzlies are ready to call it a year and get a top pick to add to their young core. Aldama has been in and out of the lineup over the last few games, so his inconsistent playing time isn't helping any fantasy teams that are still playing. GG Jackson II, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Jake LaRavia have been the best streaming options in the Grizzlies' frontcourt. |

Mon Apr 1 | 18:49 | Santi Aldama Cleared To Play Monday |
Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Santi Aldama (illness) will be available on Monday versus Detroit. He missed Saturday's clash with an illness and had a questionable tag entering Monday, but the team has upgraded him to available. Aldama plays a big role on the Grizzlies' frontcourt. He averaged 13.1 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks with 2.2 made three-pointers in March. Aldama's return sends Jake LaRavia back to the bench, but he should still be a decent piece for fantasy managers in deeper leagues. |

Sun Mar 31 | 21:42 | Santi Aldama Questionable Monday With Illness |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (illness) has been listed as questionable for Monday's tilt against the Detroit Pistons. The illness knocked him out of their last game against the Orlando Magic which ended up being a 30-point blowout loss. Now, he's earned a questionable tag instead of a doubtful status like their last game. Aldama has provided solid scoring and rebound numbers when he plays since he joins the starting five due to all of the injury issues on the roster. If he plays, he should see the same role. If has to watch from the sidelines, GG Jackson II, Jake LaRavia, and Jaren Jackson Jr. should remain the starters in the frontcourt. |

Fri Mar 29 | 17:58 | Santi Aldama Battling An Illness, Doubtful For Saturday |
Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Santi Aldama (illness) is considered unlikely to play on Saturday against Orlando. He's feeling under the weather, and the team has listed Aldama as doubtful for the game. Brandon Clarke, who's just made his season debut, should get a chance to play a bigger role without Aldama. The young duo of Jake LaRavia and GG Jackson II will be counted on more as well, along with Lamar Stevens, who has carved out a steady role off the bench lately. However, the Grizzlies find themselves in a pace-down spot on Saturday against a top defensive team, which could significantly impact the players' output. |

Wed Mar 20 | 21:36 | Santi Aldama Good To Go Wednesday |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (elbow) will face the Warriors on Wednesday. The 23-year-old had 14 points, nine rebounds, two steals, and one block in Monday's loss to the Sacramento Kings. Yet, he popped up on the injury report because of his ailing elbow. However, Aldama is good to go, and with Memphis still down several players due to injury, he remains a viable fantasy option for all formats. |

Fri Mar 15 | 19:44 | Santi Aldama Questionable For Saturday's Game |
Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Santi Aldama (elbow) is considered questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Thunder. After making 16 consecutive appearances, Aldama missed Wednesday's matchup against Charlotte with a sore left elbow. His absence provided a further boost to GG Jackson II's growing fantasy stock. The 19-year-old rookie led his team with 26 points against the Hornets. Saturday's game is going to be a lot more challenging, but Jackson II should continue to play a major role on the frontcourt if Aldama and Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps) remain out. |

Wed Mar 13 | 19:32 | Santi Aldama Won't Play Wednesday |
Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Santi Aldama (elbow) will sit out Wednesday's contest against Charlotte. Memphis completes a back-to-back, and Aldama is getting the night off due to a sore left elbow. With Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps) also missing, Trey Jemison could be carrying a very heavy workload on the Grizzlies' frontcourt, with Wenyen Gabriel, Jake LaRavia, and GG Jackson II also in the mix. Jemison is coming off a career night, which saw him score 24 points and grab eight rebounds against Washington in a 109-97 win. He's in a perfect place to produce a similar performance on Wednesday because the Hornets typically struggle against centers. |

Tue Feb 6 | 08:11 | Santi Aldama Listed As Questionable Tuesday |
Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Santi Aldama (tailbone) has been listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Knicks. He was out on Sunday against Boston with a tailbone contusion and might miss another game. David Roddy and GG Jackson benefited from Aldama's absence at the weekend and could play a large part again in New York as the Grizzlies continue to deal with a number of injuries. |

Fri Jan 26 | 10:40 | Santi Aldama Listed As Questionable On Friday |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (knee) could be sidelined on Friday as he's dealing with right knee soreness at the moment. He's officially listed as questionable ahead of their matchup against the Orlando Magic on Friday and will likely receive an updated status in the afternoon after he goes through some shootaround and warm-ups. Aldama has had a bit of knee troubles this year that have forced him to miss multiple games so far. He was ruled out of their last game on Wednesday for the same knee soreness, so it's unclear how severe the pain is right now. If he's unable to suit up, that should open up more minutes for David Roddy and GG Jackson II. |

Wed Jan 24 | 03:51 | Santi Aldama Won't Play On Wednesday |
Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Santi Aldama (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Miami. The Spaniard couldn't finish Monday's contest against Toronto due to right knee soreness and will be kept out of the lineup Wednesday with the same issue. Xavier Tillman Sr. will likely move back into the starting unit without Aldama, while GG Jackson and David Roddy could get some extra work. Tillman Sr. has posted 7.7 points and 6.4 rebounds in 12 starts this season. He will likely have a tough time against elite defender Bam Adebayo on Wednesday. |

Tue Jan 23 | 09:53 | Santi Aldama Exits With Knee Problem |
Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Santi Aldama couldn't complete Monday's game against Toronto due to right knee soreness. He contributed 10 points, four rebounds, four assists, and one steal as a starter in 23 minutes. Aldama remained in the starting unit despite Xavier Tillman Sr. (knee) being available again. The latter had two points and four rebounds in 16 minutes off the bench. Tillman Sr. didn't do too well on Monday, but he will be the likeliest man to cover for Aldama if the Spaniard needs to take some time off. |

Mon Jan 8 | 22:47 | Santi Aldama Not Expected To Play On Tuesday |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (knee) isn't expected to play in Tuesday's game versus the Dallas Mavericks. The 22-year-old has averaged a career-high 10.4 points and 5.5 rebounds this season. However, he's battled various ailments, including an ankle injury that kept him out to begin the 2023-24 campaign. Under normal circumstances, Aldama's potential absence wouldn't mean much to fantasy managers. But with Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) questionable, Aldama could see enough minutes to make him relevant. At any rate, if both players are ruled out, David Roddy, Xavier Tillman Sr., and Bismack Biyombo could handle nearly all of the minutes underneath the basket. |

Thu Dec 28 2023 | 20:46 | Santi Aldama Downgraded To Out |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (illness) has been downgraded to out ahead of Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Grizzlies are going to be shorthanded with Ja Morant (illness) also sidelined for this game. However, the absence of Aldama won't mean as much as the loss of Morant. Regardless, the Grizzlies will need to find a way to fill the void left by Aldama. The expectation is that David Roddy and Ziaire Williams should see an uptick in playing time on Thursday. |

Sun Nov 5 2023 | 15:28 | Santi Aldama Questionable Against Portland |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with Portland. The 22-year-old hasn't played this season because of a sprained ankle. However, the Grizzlies could certainly use him, considering Steven Adams (knee) and Brandon Clarke (Achilles) aren't available. Aldama averaged 9.0 points and 4.8 rebounds in 2022-23, so he's expected to play a pivotal role from off the bench. But it may take him a few games to see his usual workload, meaning fantasy managers should keep him out of their starting lineups. |

Fri Nov 3 2023 | 21:52 | Santi Aldama Out Again On Friday |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (ankle) remains out on Friday night against Portland. The 22-year-old continues to work his way back from a sprained right ankle. However, he's not ready to return, so he'll miss his fifth game of the 2022-23 campaign. Aldama averaged 9.0 points and 4.8 rebounds last season and is anticipated to receive routine minutes in the rotation once he's healthy. But in the meantime, David Roddy should continue to fill the void in the lineup, although he's not a reliable option for fantasy managers in any format. |

Fri Nov 3 2023 | 16:46 | Santi Aldama Likely To Miss Another Game On Friday |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (ankle) is considered doubtful to play against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night to kick off the in-season tournament. Aldama has been dealing with this ankle sprain since the preseason and he has yet to appear in a game this year. If he has to remain on the sidelines, Jaren Jackson Jr. will continue to see as many minutes as he can handle while Xavier Tillman Sr. and Jake LaRavia see more minutes in the frontcourt. The new signing, Bismack Biyombo, may also see some minutes as he's eased into the lineup. |

Sun Oct 29 2023 | 21:40 | Santi Aldama Will Miss Another Game |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (ankle) remains out for Monday's contest against Dallas. The 22-year-old has yet to make his 2023-24 debut because of a sprained ankle, so his next chance to play will be on Wednesday night in Utah. Aldama is expected to see routine minutes for Memphis this season, especially since the team lacks bodies underneath the basket. Fortunately, Xavier Tillman Sr. has stepped up, averaging a career-high 12.7 points, 9.0 rebounds, 2.0 steals, and 1.0 blocks this season, meaning he should be in every fantasy starting lineup. At the same time, David Roddy could be of value to those looking to fill a void in deeper formats. |

Sat Oct 28 2023 | 15:39 | Santi Aldama Not Ready To Play |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (ankle) won't make his season debut on Saturday in Washington. The 22-year-old averaged 9.0 points and 4.8 rebounds in 2022-23 and is predicted to see plenty of minutes for Memphis this season, considering the team is without Steven Adams (knee) and Brandon Clarke (Achilles). However, with the emergence of Xavier Tillman Sr., Aldama isn't a lock to have the role most had envisioned he'd have entering the year. At any rate, his next chance to suit up will be on Monday against the Mavericks, although he may miss a few more games moving forward. |

Fri Oct 27 2023 | 09:37 | Santi Aldama Will Miss Friday's Game With Ankle Sprain |
Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (ankle) is currently dealing with a right ankle sprain and has officially been listed as out for their game on Friday against the Denver Nuggets. With the frontcourt being so thin due to injuries, Xavier Tillman Sr. should get the start at center while Jaren Jackson Jr. should get even more time at power forward. Jake LaRavia and David Roddy may also see some time in the frontcourt, while Kenneth Lofton Jr. and GG Jackson II are long shots to see some minutes. The former two would be better streaming options if Tillman is unavailable. |
