Wells (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

Wells is in danger of missing his first game of the season due to left hamstring soreness. If the second-year swingman is ultimately ruled out, Cam Spencer and GG Jackson are candidates for increased playing time. Over his last five games, Wells has averaged 12.6 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.6 steals in 30.4 minutes per tilt.

Wells chipped in 11 points (4-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds and three assists in 27 minutes during Sunday's 116-112 loss to the Wizards.

EDGE Analysis

This was an average showing for Wells as the Grizzlies dropped to 15-17 on the season. Across 32 appearances this season, Wells is barely on pace for top-200 production in standard nine-category formats with averages of 12.4 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists.

Wells ended Monday's 119-103 loss to the Thunder with 12 points (5-16 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one block and three steals in 32 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Wells didn't have an efficient shooting line, but he made a strong impact defensively. He's trending up in a big way lately, having averaged 16.3 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.3 steals in 30.2 minutes per contest in his last 12 games.

Wells ended with 17 points (5-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), four rebounds, two assists and four steals across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 116-110 victory over Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

The four steals were a career high for the second-year forward, and Wells also scored in double digits for a 10th straight game as his production takes a significant step forward. During that stretch, the Washington State product has averaged 18.0 points, 4.0 boards, 2.5 threes, 1.8 assists and 1.2 steals while shooting 56.0 percent from the floor and a sizzling 50.0 percent (25-for-50) from beyond the arc.

Wells finished with 16 points (5-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 30 minutes during Monday's 121-103 victory over the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Wells extended his double-digit scoring streak to nine games. The Washington State product has fully recovered from an abysmal start to the season, where he averaged only nine points per game over the first 10 contests. Wells has averaged 17.6 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists over the past five games, and he'll be called upon for more production if Ja Morant (ankle) misses additional time.

Wells notched 19 points (6-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 33 minutes during Friday's 130-126 loss to Utah.

EDGE Analysis

Wells put together another solid night on the offensive end, reaching double figures for an eighth straight matchup. He's averaging 18.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.8 made threes in 29.6 minutes during this hot stretch.

Wells chipped in 17 points (7-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal over 27 minutes during Friday's 107-98 win over the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

The 2024 second-round pick has caught fire offensively over the last couple of weeks. Wells has drained multiple three-pointers in five of the last six games, averaging 18.7 points, 3.5 boards, 3.0 threes and 1.5 assists over that stretch while shooting a blistering 64.3 percent from the floor and 58.1 percent (18-for-31) from beyond the arc.

Wells notched 20 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-8 FT), one rebound and two assists over 28 minutes during Tuesday's 126-119 loss to San Antonio.

EDGE Analysis

The second-year forward continues to thrive with larger usage for the Grizzlies. Over the last five games, Wells has reached 20 points three times while draining multiple three-pointers four times, averaging 19.0 points, 3.6 boards, 3.0 threes and 1.8 assists in 30.2 minutes while shooting a blistering 64.4 percent from the floor and 57.7 percent (15-for-26) from downtown. Wells won't stay that hot forever, and his role will likely shrink once Ja Morant (calf) is back, but at least for now, the Grizzlies are leaning heavily on the 2024 second-round pick for offense.

Wells amassed 25 points (9-11 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 133-128 overtime victory over the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

The 25 points were a season high for Wells, who has topped 20 points in back-to-back games after failing to score more than 18 in any of his first 17 games of 2025-26. The second-year wing is seeing his usage creep up with Ja Morant (calf) on the shelf. Over five games since Morant went down, Wells is averaging 15.6 points, 3.0 boards, 2.4 assists, 2.4 threes and 1.0 steals in 28.4 minutes a contest while shooting 53.8 percent from the floor and 48.0 percent (12-for-25) from beyond the arc.

Wells finished Monday's 125-115 loss to the Nuggets with 22 points (8-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal over 33 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Wells finally found his offensive groove, scoring a season-high 22 points. Prior to Monday, he had scored more than 15 points only once in the previous 11 games, continuing his slow start to the season. There is no reason to overreact to this performance, but he is worth keeping an eye on, given that Memphis is dealing with multiple injuries in its backcourt.
