  1. Coward tallied 23 points (8-19 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and four steals over 33 minutes in Wednesday's 107-103 loss to the Pacers.

    Coward was coming off back-to-back 10-point performances, but he was much more aggressive seeking out his own shot Wednesday and cracked the 20-point plateau for the first time this season. He'll look to keep his momentum going into Friday's meeting with the Thunder.

  2. Coward logged 10 points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds and three assists over 31 minutes during Monday's 135-134 overtime loss to the Pelicans.

    Coward fell just one rebound short of what would have been his third double-double of the season, although as a whole, this was a somewhat underwhelming performance. Despite some inconsistencies, Coward has cobbled together a strong start to the season, averaging 12.8 points, 8.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 2.5 three-pointers, good enough for borderline top-50 value.

  3. Coward finished with 16 points (6-12 FG, 4-4 3Pt), 11 rebounds, three assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Monday's 110-105 victory over the Jazz.

    Coward recorded his second straight double-double, helping Memphis to its fourth straight victory to begin the season. After missing the second game of the campaign due to a wrist injury, Coward has put that behind him, playing some of the best basketball of his young career. In three appearances thus far, he has averaged 12.7 points, 9.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 2.7 three-pointers, good enough for top-55 value in standard leagues.

  4. Coward delivered 15 points (6-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt), 11 rebounds, two assists and a steal across 32 minutes in Sunday's 123-112 win over the Kings.

    Coward recorded his first double-double of the season and posted another efficient performance while surpassing the 30-minute plateau for the first time in 2026-27. His efficient perimeter shooting also provided a boost. It's still early in the season, but Coward's consistent playing time and rebounding production are encouraging for fantasy managers, although his scoring opportunities could fluctuate alongside Memphis' other offensive options.

  5. Coward (wrist) is available for Sunday's game against the Kings.

    Coward sat out Friday's 111-108 win over the Warriors with a left wrist sprain, but he's back in the starting lineup after a one-game absence. He started his lone appearance this season, tallying seven points, seven rebounds, two assists and a block in 28 minutes.
