Wright recorded 16 points (7-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 20 minutes during Wednesday's 110-89 victory over the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Wright is set to be Marc Gasol's backup once again this season, but demonstrated Wednesday that he's capable of holding his own in a starting five. While he's a fringe fantasy option, he can make for an intriguing DFS play when or if Gasol suffers an injury.

Wright will start at center for Monday's preseason opener against the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

Marc Gasol is dealing with an ankle injury and will sit out Monday's contest, which allows Wright to take over as the starting center. While Wright could pick up multiple starts throughout the preseason, Gasol's injury isn't expected to linger into the regular season, so Wright should open up the 2017-18 campaign as the team's backup center. That will likely limit his fantasy impact to just the deepest of leagues.

Wright will return to the bench for Tuesday's game against the Spurs.

EDGE Analysis

Wright has started at center the last three games in place of the ailing Marc Gasol (foot), posting averages of 12.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.0 assist and 1.7 blocks across 27.7 minutes. With both Gasol and JaMychal Green (shoulder) back with the top unit, Wright heads to the bench and figures to see a significant drop in value moving forward as he could see his minutes fall all the way into the mid-to-low teens.

Wright is listed as the starting center for Wednesday's matchup against the Pacers.

EDGE Analysis

Wright is filling in for Marc Gasol who will be sidelined for Wednesday's game. It will mark Gasol's third consecutive absence, but the first time Wright has started for him. Zach Randolph started the previous two at center, but will return to a reserve role in favor of Wright. Although he is starting, expect Wright to just see a slightly heavier workload in total than he is accustomed to.

Wright compiled 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 13 minutes in Saturday's 107-90 loss to the Hawks.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran big man didn't let a move back to the second unit prevent him from another solid outing, his third straight with 66.7 percent shooting. Wright had started at power forward in the previous two games, but he gave way to JaMychal Green on Saturday. However, his allotment of minutes wasn't too far off the 18-and-15-minute tallies he'd seen during that pair of contests, so he remains a viable option for those in deep formats in need for some scoring and rebounding help at this stage of the season.

Wright will come off the bench in Saturday's game against the Hawks, Grizzlies sideline reporter Rob Fischer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wright has started the last two games at power forward, but still never less than 20 minutes in each of the outings. The Grizzlies, in desperate need of a win, will go back to former starter JaMychal Green at the power forward spot, which will effectively minimize the role Wright will play in Saturday's contest.

Wright registered eight points (4-6 FG, 0-1 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 15 minutes in a 114-98 loss to the Clippers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Wright was making his second straight start at power forward, but with the big man seeing less than 20 minutes in both contests and the Grizzlies losing streak now at four games, it may not be long until he heads back to the bench. If there's a silver lining for Wright, it's that former starter JaMychal Green hasn't made much of an impact off the bench in the last two contests, averaging 6.0 points and 7.0 boards in 24.0 minutes.

Wright (personal) will start at power forward for Monday's matchup with the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Wright has missed the last two games for a personal reason and has made just nine total appearances this season, so Monday's start will mark his first of the 2016-17 campaign. It sounds like coach David Fizdale is looking for a spark offensively, so he'll insert both Andrew Harrison at shooting guard and Brandan Wright at power forward in the starting lineup, while bringing both Tony Allen and JaMychal Green off the bench. It remains to be seen if this is just one game experiment, but it still should provide Wright an opportunity to see added minutes on Monday.

Wright (personal) will be active and available to play in Monday's game against the Nets, Ronald Tillery of the Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wright missed the last two games while tending to a personal issue, but is back with the team Monday and should be available off the bench. That said, Wright has been restricted to minutes in the upper teens to low 20's at best on most nights, which severely restricts his fantasy upside on most nights. Over his last five games, he's averaged 8.0 points, 3.1 rebounds and 0.9 blocks across 16.7 minutes per contest.

Wright (personal) will not be available for Saturday's game against the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Wright will miss a second straight game while tending to a personal issue. The 29-year-old also missed two games at the end of February with the same designation, but the circumstances surrounding the situation have not been revealed. Until further notice, consider Wright questionable for Monday's matchup with Brooklyn.
