Konchar is in the Jazz's starting lineup against the Grizzlies on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Konchar will make his second start of the season (and first as a member of the Jazz) due to the absences of Lauri Markkanen (illness) and Jusuf Nurkic (nose). Konchar's last start took place Jan. 21 as a member of the Grizzlies, when he logged two points, four rebounds, two steals and one block over 21 minutes in a 124-122 loss to the Hawks.

Konchar ended with six points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, two blocks and three steals across 25 minutes during Thursday's 135-119 loss to the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
Konchar is not a scorer, but his ability to generate rebounds, assists and defensive stats can make him appealing in category formats. There are a lot of minutes up for grabs in Utah due to Jaren Jackson's injury and the constant maintenance of key players, making Konchar a player to monitor.

Konchar ended with four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 18 minutes during Saturday's 120-117 loss to the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
Cleared to make his Jazz debut after he was acquired from the Grizzlies on Tuesday, Konchar was part of the team's initial 10-man rotation to open the first half of Saturday's contest. The defensive-minded wing produced well during his time on the court, but Konchar's minutes could still remain volatile over the final few months of the season. The Jazz are clearly prioritizing player development over wins, and the 29-year-old Konchar may not be part of the club's long-term plans, so it wouldn't be surprising if he eventually fell out of the rotation.

Konchar (neck/recently traded) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Saturday's game against Orlando.
EDGE Analysis
Konchar was dealing with a neck injury that caused him to miss two consecutive games prior to his trade from the Grizzlies to the Jazz on Tuesday. He mostly served in a rotational role off the bench for Memphis before the move, and Konchar will have to battle with Svi Mykhailiuk, Brice Sensabaugh and Kyle Filipowski for consistent minutes off the bench. Konchar is averaging 3.2 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.1 steals over 14.5 minutes per game this season.

Konchar (neck/recently traded) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
Konchar was traded by the Grizzlies to the Jazz on Tuesday as part of a larger package centered around Jaren Jackson. Konchar had been working through a neck injury prior to his move to Utah, and his next opportunity to make his Jazz debut will be Saturday against the Magic.

The Grizzlies traded Konchar (neck), Jaren Jackson, Jock Landale and Vince Williams to the Jazz on Tuesday in exchange for Walter Clayton, Taylor Hendricks, Kyle Anderson (illness), Georges Niang (foot) and three first-round picks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Konchar will battle with Svi Mykhailiuk, Brice Sensabaugh and others for reserve minutes at the wing positions for Utah. The 6-foot-5 back-up ends his time in Memphis after six-and-a-half seasons and 337 games during which he averaged 4.1 points, 0.8 steals and 0.6 three-pointers over 17 minutes per contest. He's been battling a minor neck injury before the trade and can be considered questionable for Thursday's game in Atlanta while the trade finalizes.

Konchar (neck) is out for Monday's game against the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Konchar will miss a second straight game due to an anterior triangle contusion. Vince Williams and GG Jackson are candidates for increased minutes with Konchar sidelined.

Konchar (neck) will not play Saturday against the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Konchar will be held out for the second leg of this back-to-back set. The Grizzlies will be very shorthanded Saturday, so Vince Williams and GG Jackson could see extended minutes.

Konchar is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves due to an anterior triangle contusion.
EDGE Analysis
Konchar may have picked up the injury during the Grizzlies' 114-106 loss to the Pelicans on Friday, when he tallied nine points (4-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists over 22 minutes. He has averaged 21.4 minutes per game over his last five outings, and that playing time will be absorbed by GG Jackson and Vince Williams, assuming Konchar is ruled out for Saturday's contest.
