2024 Fantasy Outlook
Having averaged at least 20 minutes per game during each of the last two seasons, Konchar's offensive limitations continue to put a cap on his overall fantasy appeal. He finished as the 165th-ranked player during the 2023-24 season, taking advantage of the Grizzlies' injury-depleted roster. Konchar plays like a watered-down version of Josh Hart, providing excellent rebounding numbers from the guard position, with an ability to deliver serviceable defensive contributions. Unfortunately, last season may have been a high point for Konchar, assuming Memphis can table a healthy roster for most of the upcoming campaign. Konchar should feature in the rotation but should he be limited to 15 minutes per contest, making his fantasy value in standard formats non-existent. Read Past Outlooks

November 4, 2024
Konchar (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Brooklyn.
ANALYSIS
Monday will be the third straight game Konchar has been sidelined due to a right quadriceps contusion, and his next chance at playing will be Wednesday at home against the Lakers. Scotty Pippen and Jaylen Wells should continue to see increased roles and playing time while Konchar is sidelined.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
While Konchar did manage to put together his best season in the NBA during the 2022-23 campaign, he remains well off the pace when it comes to consistent fantasy value. He ended as the 175th-ranked player in standard formats, averaging 5.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 20.7 minutes per game. He does provide solid rebound numbers from the wing position, as well as serviceable defensive production. Unfortunately, he would need upwards of 28 minutes per night to put himself on the fantasy radar. Barring injuries to multiple players, that seems like nothing more than fantasy itself.
Despite flashing a small amount of upside throughout his third season in the NBA, Konchar remains on the outside looking in regarding relevant production. Playing 18 minutes per night, Konchar put up career-high numbers across the board but didn't have a tangible fantasy impact. While he does possess a somewhat fantasy-friendly skillset, Konchar would need a lot to go his way should he hope to be anything more than a role player. He'll be in the rotation, but his role is far too insignificant to warrant fantasy attention at this stage.
In his second NBA season, Konchar averaged 4.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.1 assists across 13.4 minutes per game. These were minor improvements over his rookie season, but the ending to his 2020-21 campaign was very promising. He scored in double figures in three of his final six regular season games. The 25-year-old is likely to fill a similar role off the bench this season; however, he will now also be competing for minutes with rookie tenth-overall pick Zaire Williams, which could slightly impact his development. Konchar is not expected to be worth rostering in most fantasy leagues.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Sets goal for 2024-25
GMemphis Grizzlies
October 2, 2024
Konchar has established a goal when it comes to his three-point percentage for the 2024-25 season, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
ANALYSIS
Konchar has been one of the best three-point shooters in the league over the last few years, but he's been trending in the wrong direction of late. He made 40.6 percent of his three-point attempts in his first three years in the league, but that figure has dropped to 33 percent over the last two seasons. Konchar aims to make at least 38 percent of his treys in 2024-25.
