Jemison notched two points (1-2 FG), one rebound, one assist and two steals in 17 minutes during Tuesday's 132-91 loss to the Mavericks. Jemison played double-digit minutes for the sixth time in the past seven games, highlighting the fact that the Pelicans are battling a number of injuries to key players. Over the past two weeks, Jemison is averaging 4.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 combined steals and blocks in 15.1 minutes per game. It has been a surprising development but one that is almost certainly going to end once the team starts to get their primary pieces back on the floor.

Jemison notched two points (1-2 FG), one rebound, one assist and two steals in 17 minutes during Tuesday's 132-91 loss to the Mavericks. Jemison played double-digit minutes for the sixth time in the past seven games, highlighting the fact that the Pelicans are battling a number of injuries to key players. Over the past two weeks, Jemison is averaging 4.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 combined steals and blocks in 15.1 minutes per game. It has been a surprising development but one that is almost certainly going to end once the team starts to get their primary pieces back on the floor.
The Pelicans claimed Jemison off waivers Friday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports. Jemison was waived by the Grizzlies earlier this week but will now have the opportunity to compete for minutes in the Pelicans' frontcourt rotation. In 2023-24, Jemison averaged 6.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 assists in 23.0 minutes across 25 regular-season appearances.
The Grizzlies waived Jemison on Wednesday. Jemison was forced to make way with the Grizzlies signing Jay Huff to a two-way contract. While on a two-way contract with the Grizzlies during the 2023-24 regular season, Jemison made 25 appearances with averages of 7.4 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 blocks.
Jemison racked up 14 points (6-14 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 30 minutes during Tuesday's 102-87 loss to the Spurs. Jemison had yet another strong showing for a Memphis team ravaged by injuries. Through four appearances in April, Jemison has compiled averages of 10.8 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.5 blocks in 28.5 minutes.
Jemison registered 17 points (7-9 FG, 3-3 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal over 31 minutes during Friday's 108-90 win over Detroit. Jemison started for the second consecutive game, and the former UAB standout delivered one of his best outings of the season Friday, posting his first double-double while notching a career-high mark in rebounds. Jemison is expected to remain in the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup against the 76ers in case Santi Aldama (foot) or Jaren Jackson (quadriceps) end up being ruled out.
Jemison is in the starting lineup Wednesday, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports. Jemison will replace Santi Aldama (foot), who was ruled out just before tipoff Wednesday. jemison is averaging 12.6 points, 6.2 rebounds and 1.2 blocks in 27.0 minutes across his previous five starting appearances.
Jemison recorded eight points (3-5 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 22 minutes during Monday's 128-103 loss to the Nuggets. Jemison returned to the lineup after sitting out against the Spurs on Friday. The Grizzlies continue to tinker with their lineup on a nightly basis, making it hard to trust anyone when it comes to sustainable fantasy value. At this point, it might be a situation to avoid, barring the ability to add players right up until the opening tip.
Jemison is not in the starting lineup to face the Thunder on Saturday. Jemison recorded 38 points, 12 rebounds and four blocks in a two-game span (both starts) in a back-to-back set against Washington and Charlotte on March 12 and March 13. However, he'll move back to the bench with Jaren Jackson (qudriceps) being ready to return to the court. Jemison is averaging 2.7 points and 2.9 rebounds per game when deployed off the bench.
Jemison logged 24 points (11-13 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two blocks over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 109-97 win over Washington. Jemison scored a career-high 24 points in the win, more than he had managed in his previous four games combined. Although it does appear as though he will feature in the rotation moving forward, the Grizzlies are by no means running out a predictable lineup on a nightly basis. With no guarantees he will suit up Wednesday, he makes for a tough hold in standard formats.
