Eligibility
Steven Adams has been traded to the Rockets in exchange for Victor Oladipo and three second-round picks.
Fantasy Impact
Adams is expected to be fully healthy for next season where he'll form a formidable duo alongside Alperen Sengun. He suffered a season-ending injury prior to this season.
Steven Adams (knee), who has been out since January, is now expected to miss the postseason.
Fantasy Impact
Adams was only expected to miss 3-5 weeks when the injury first occurred. Now the Grizzlies are likely without their veteran center for the playoffs, a brutal turn of events. Xavier Tillman has filled in admirably for Adams, and it looks like his role is secured until the end of the 2022-23 season.
Steven Adams is expected to miss 3-5 weeks due to a PCL sprain in his right knee.
Fantasy Impact
Adams, who is averaging a career-high 11.5 rebounds per game this season, will leave plenty of minutes and rebounds up for grabs in his absence. When Adams was inactive this past Monday, Xavier Tillman Sr. filled the starting role. It remains to be seen if the starting spot is Tillman's to lose. Santi Aldama and Brandon Clarke will also be involved and could compete for the starting spot.
Steven Adams posted a double-double for the Grizzlies Friday night, grabbing 17 rebounds and scoring 16 points (6-7 FG, 4-9 FT) while also blocking one shot and dishing out two assists in a 122-121 loss to the Lakers.
Fantasy Impact
Adams has recorded a double-double in three of his last five games for the Grizzlies, averaging 11.6 points and 12.6 rebounds per game in that span. The center has offered solid rebounding output while posting decent scoring numbers at times for fantasy owners, averaging 11.4 rebounds and 8.6 points per game while carrying a mediocre 13.8% usage rate so far this season.
Steven Adams (illness) is available to play in Monday's contest against the San Antonio Spurs.
Fantasy Impact
A non-covid illness initially threatened Adams' availability for Monday night's game, but he's been cleared and will play against the Spurs. There isn't any reason to think that he will be limited, and he projects to be a decent streaming option against a sub-par Spurs' team Monday.
