The Grizzlies will be without McLemore — who they signed to a two-year, $10.7
million contract over the summer — until at least early November. While the
6-foot-6 shooting guard hasn’t had a noteworthy career up to this point, Memphis
lacks depth at the position, seemingly giving McLemore plenty of opportunities
to prove himself. He isn’t projected to miss any regular season games, though
will miss out on valuable offseason time to work on his game. Overall, this
development shouldn’t affect his fantasy stock too much, but those who take a
chance on him probably shouldn’t be surprised if he starts off slow or misses
games here and there with lingering soreness.
