2026-27 projection
| State | GP | MPG | FG% (FGA) | FT% (FTA) | 3PM | PTS | REB | AST | STL | BLK | TO |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Representative rotation | 0 | 0 | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — |
| Two-way call-up line | 28 | 12 | .410 (3.5) | .600 (0.7) | 0.3 | 3.4 | 1.7 | 1.4 | 0.8 | 0.3 | 0.9 |
Nine-category: deep-league steals streamer only; severe percentage and scoring limitations. Points: little value outside starts. Dynasty: specialist stash in very deep formats, with defense providing a real-life path.
Range and risks
- Strengths: steals, some blocks from guard, defensive role.
- Liabilities: FG%, FT%, threes and scoring.
- Floor/base/ceiling: G League-only / matchup call-up / multiple guard absences create 20 minutes and 1.3-plus steals.
- Branches: guard cuts improve the call-up lane, but Small and Cooper share two-way flexibility.
The 31-game NBA line confirms the defensive rate and the shooting problem. July roster reporting identifies Mashack as a two-way, which is more specific status evidence than the undifferentiated official roster page. Sports Illustrated / Memphis On SI, 2026-07-09

Career record
Pre-NBA: Tennessee, four seasons (2021-25), 109 program wins; career 4.2 PPG as a defense-first wing. Senior year 2024-25: started all 38, 6.0 PTS / 4.2 REB / 1.5 AST / 1.7 STL on .454/.351, SEC All-Defensive, Naismith DPOY finalist, Elite Eight run. Draft: 2025, Round 2, Pick 59 (the draft's final pick) by Houston; rights moved to Memphis, where he signed a two-way on November 16, 2025.

One NBA season on record, all on a two-way signed mid-November; he debuted November 20, 2025.
Durability: No injury record; the 31-game total reflects the mid-season signing and two-way active-list limits, not health.
Trajectory: The record is unusually informative for a 59th pick: Memphis gave him real minutes (21.7 MPG, 7 starts) and the college scouting report reproduced exactly — elite defensive events (1.2 STL, 0.5 BLK from a guard) against genuinely poor shooting (.395/.253/.543). The senior-year .351 from three did not carry over. In 2026-27 he competes to keep a two-way slot and be Memphis's first defensive call-up. He becomes fantasy-relevant only as a deep-league steals stream during multiple Memphis guard absences; a standard-contract conversion would be the signal to watch.
