NBC SportsJa Morant, Cedric Coward, Jaylen Wells, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Santi Aldama will start Friday's game against the Jazz.

While Morant's return from a strained calf is the most significant change to the Grizzlies' starting lineup, it isn't the only one. While Jock Landale has been the preferred choice in the past, Aldama will step in to fill the void left by the injured Zach Edey (ankle). Edey will be out for at least four weeks, so there's still time for Landale to slide into the lineup. But this decision bodes well for Aldama's fantasy value, which is capped when he comes off the bench.

NBC SportsJaren Jackson Jr. accumulated 27 points (9-of-23 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), five rebounds, two assists, three steals, one block and five three-pointers in Wednesday's win over the Pelicans.

Not only were Jackson's 27 points a game-high, but they were also the most he's scored in a game this season. While the rebounding production remains disappointing, JJJ's overall stat line in Wednesday's overtime victory was solid. The good news for Jackson managers is that he's closing in on top-100 value. However, no one expected him to be that low in the rankings when the season began. The Grizzlies continue their road trip with games against the Clippers and Kings to end Week 6.

NBC SportsJaren Jackson Jr. (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Nuggets.

Jackson has missed Memphis' last two games with a sprained right ankle, with Santi Aldama replacing him in the lineup. If JJJ remains out, Aldama will get another start, and he's worth rostering in 12-team formats while that is the case.
