Reverting back to bench Monday
Aldama won't start Monday's game against the Nuggets.
Analyse
With Jaren Jackson returning from a two-game absence due to a sprained ankle, Aldama will slide to the second unit. In his last five appearances off the bench, the 24-year-old forward averaged 13.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.0 steals across 27.0 minutes per contest.

Game-high 29 points in win
Aldama tallied 29 points (11-18 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, three assists and two blocks over 28 minutes during the Grizzlies' 137-96 win over the Kings on Thursday.
Analyse
Aldama made the most of his opportunity Thursday, when he made his first start of the regular season due to Jaren Jackson (ankle) being sidelined. Aldama reached the 20-point threshold for the first time this season while finishing with a game-high plus-28 point differential, and his five three-pointers were also a season high. The fifth-year pro will likely remain in the Grizzlies' starting lineup Saturday against the Kings if Jackson is not cleared to return.

Making first start of season
Aldama is in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the Kings on Thursday, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.
Analyse
Aldama will make his first start of the 2025-26 regular season Thursday due to the absence of Jaren Jackson (ankle). Across nine games since Nov. 2, Aldama has averaged 13.9 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 0.8 steals over 26.7 minutes per game. He should see an expanded role on offense, as the Grizzlies will be without their top stars in Jackson and Ja Morant (calf).
