Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Scores season-high 16 in loss
Wells delivered 16 points (7-16 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 0-1 FT) while adding seven rebounds in 27 minutes during Friday's 117-112 loss to the Lakers.
The second-year forward tied Jock Landale for the Grizzlies' scoring lead on the night, with Wells' points and boards both being season highs. The 2024 second-round pick has started six straight games to begin the season, but Wells hasn't done a whole lot yet with the opportunity, averaging 10.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.7 threes and 1.3 assists in 26.8 minutes a contest -- numbers nearly identical to his rookie production.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Struggles from three in win
Wells accumulated five points (2-10 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and three rebounds across 27 minutes during Saturday's 128-103 win over the Pacers.
Wells, who shot 7-for-15 from three-point range over the first two games, missed all seven of his tries from deep on Saturday. He's scored 14 combined points in his last two outings after putting up 14 with four assists and a steal in Memphis' season opener. The second-year wing will try to bounce back against the Warriors on Monday night.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Starts Year 2 strong
Wells racked up 14 points (4-8 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-5 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 128-122 win over the Pelicans.
Wells is far from a flashy player, but he gets the job done. The 2024 second-round pick started 74 of 79 regular-season games as a rookie last season, averaging 10.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.6 steals in 25.9 minutes. If Wells can increase his playmaking and defensive stats, he could be in store for a strong second season in the NBA.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Scores 21 points in blowout win
Wells contributed 21 points (7-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 22 minutes during Friday's 141-125 blowout preseason win over the Heat.
Wells should open the year as a starter in Memphis and he'll look to build off a rookie season in which he put up 10.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.7 triples per contest. He could be worth a late-round pick in deep leagues on draft day.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Drops 15 in loss
Wells racked up 15 points (3-9 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 7-9 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 25 minutes during Saturday's 122-116 preseason loss to the Hawks.
Wells led the way in the scoring department for his squad while playing limited minutes. He's played well in the preseason thus far, as he continues to shine as a scorer with a lot of potential.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Drops team-high 21 points
Wells finished with 21 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three assists and one rebound in 24 minutes during Wednesday's preseason loss to the Celtics.
The Grizzlies already look like a shell of what is possible this season, with multiple injured players already on the sideline. Coming off an impressive rookie season, Wells is likely going to be tasked with doing a lot of the heavy lifting on the offensive end to start the season, with his performance Wednesday a good indication of what he is capable of. Look for him to be a reliable source of points and threes, especially early in the season. Once the roster is healthy, his role could regress slightly, although he figures to be a starter all season.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Done for Summer League
Wells (undisclosed) will not play for the remainder of the Las Vegas Summer League, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
This is hardly a surprise, as Wells doesn't have much to prove. He appeared in five Summer League contests, posting averages of 18.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists. He's expected to play a key role in Memphis this season with Desmond Bane out of the picture.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Nears double-double in win
Wells racked up 23 points (7-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 27 minutes during Saturday's 96-86 Summer League win against the Trail Blazers.
Wells came on strong in the second half for Memphis, as he went on to lead all scorers with 23 points. This was an impressive bounce-back performance for the Washington State product after he struggled with his shooting in Friday's game against Boston. Despite having his rookie year in Memphis cut short due to season-ending shoulder surgery, Wells made an impression, averaging 10.4 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.7 assists over 79 regular-season games while shooting 42.5 percent from the field and 35.2 percent from deep.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Two swipes in loss
Wells finished with 13 points (3-10 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block across 23 minutes during Friday's 92-78 Summer League loss to the Celtics.
Despite struggling with his shooting, Wells recorded a game-high two steals. The promising young forward missed Tuesday's game against Philadelphia for rest purposes. He'll likely be monitored closely by the Grizzlies coaching staff, as he's coming off a right wrist fracture that ended his rookie season in April.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Resting Tuesday
Wells (rest) won't play in Tuesday's Summer League game against the 76ers, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.
Wells will sit out the second night of the club's back-to-back set. The 21-year-old posted 23 points across 29 minutes in Monday's loss to the Jazz. His next chance to play will come Friday against the Celtics.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Shines in Summer League
Wells produced 20 points (5-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 7-7 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals across 26 minutes of Saturday's 92-80 Summer League win over the Thunder.
Wells suffered a fractured right wrist in addition to a concussion back on April 8 to cut his rookie season short, but he didn't have any limitations heading into Saturday's game. With the Grizzlies moving on from Desmond Bane, the franchise clearly has high hopes for Wells after his promising rookie campaign - he averaged 10.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.7 three-pointers and 0.6 steals in 25.9 minutes per contest across 74 regular-season games. He could be poised for a breakout in Year 2.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Taking part in summer ball
Wells (wrist) is listed on the Grizzlies' roster for the Salt Lake City and Las Vegas Summer Leagues.
A second-round pick last June, Wells was a mainstay in the Memphis rotation throughout his rookie campaign. He appeared in each of the Grizzlies' first 79 games (74 starts) and averaged 10.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.7 three-pointers and 0.6 steals in 25.9 minutes per contest before his season came to an end when he suffered a fractured right wrist in addition to a concussion after he fell hard to the court on a dunk attempt in an April 8 game against the Hornets. His inclusion on the Grizzlies' summer squad suggests that he has recovered from both injuries. However, as one of the more established players on the roster, Wells is unlikely to be in line for extended playing time in Las Vegas and Salt Lake. Heading into his second NBA season, Wells should once again be a key part of a Memphis wing rotation that includes holdovers Vince Williams and John Konchar and newcomers Ty Jerome, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Cedric Coward (shoulder).
