Anderson (COVID-19 protocols) tallied four points (2-5 FG), nine rebounds and four assists across 23 minutes Saturday in the Grizzlies' 115-95 win over the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was back in action after missing the Grizzlies' previous seven games while he was in the NBA's health and safety protocols. He didn't appear to have any major restrictions Saturday, but Memphis isn't likely to filter any additional playing time his way while frontcourt starters Jaren Jackson and Steven Adams and supporting players like Brandon Clarke, John Konchar and De'Anthony Melton are all playing well at the moment.

Anderson (COVID-19 protocols) is available for Saturday's game against the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson missed the last five games due to the league's health and safety protocols but will be back in action Saturday. He averaged 23.0 minutes per game in his five appearances prior to his absence, but it's possible that he could have his playing time monitored against Washington.

Anderson (COVID-19 protocols) is questionable Saturday against the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has spent a week and a half in the league's health and safety protocols but will have a chance to return to the court Saturday. If he remains out, John Konchar and De'Anthony Melton should continue to handle increased workloads.

Anderson entered the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols Tuesday and will miss Wednesday's game in Milwaukee, Evan Barnes of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson and Desmond Bane both entered protocols Tuesday, so the Grizzlies will be shorthanded on the wing. In their absences, more minutes should be available for John Konchar, Ziaire Williams, De'Anthony Melton and others.

Anderson racked up four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals across 21 minutes during Monday's 119-106 victory over Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson produced a low-volume fantasy gem in the victory, highlighting just how impactful he can be despite averaging just 8.2 points per game thus far this season. While his floor is generally high enough for him to be a 12-team consideration, his ceiling is limited, typically keeping him as more of a deep-league commodity.

Anderson finished with 14 points (6-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and two steals across 29 minutes during Sunday's 127-119 win over the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Making his return to action after a four-game absence, Anderson was inserted into the starting lineup with Memphis down both Steven Adams (COVID-19) and Dillon Brooks (ankle). The veteran took full advantage, posting his best all-around line of the season and reminding fantasy managers why he was a pleasant surprise for much of 2020-21. With Brooks staring down a multi-week absence, Anderson becomes a fairly appealing streaming option from now until around the All-Star break.

Anderson (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was unavailable for each of the last four games due to a combination of back soreness and the league's health and safety protocols. However, he was cleared from the COVID-19 protocols Saturday and will be able to play through his back injury Sunday. It's not clear whether the 28-year-old ll have any limitations following his absence.

The Grizzlies list Anderson (back) as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
After missing three straight games while in the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, Anderson was cleared ahead of Saturday's game against the Clippers, but he was sidelined for the Grizzlies' 123-108 while tending to a sore back. He apparently hasn't fully moved past the injury in advance of the second game of the back-to-back set, but more clarity on Anderson's status should arrive closer to Sunday's 9:30 p.m. ET tipoff.

EDGE Analysis
Anderson will now be sidelined for a fourth consecutive game due to a combination of back soreness and a stint in the health and safety protocols. Killian Tillie, Brandon Clarke and Santi Aldama should continue to see increased run.
