Kawamura (shoulder) tallied zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one assist across two minutes in Monday's 119-104 win over the Mavericks. Kawamura made his return to action after missing the Grizzlies' previous three games with an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder. He was technically part of head coach Taylor Jenkins' rotation Monday, as Kawamura entered the game with 4:54 left in the first quarter before checking out with 2:36 remaining after committing his second foul. Kawamura didn't re-enter the contest at any point after that, so he'll likely find himself back outside of the rotation Thursday versus the Rockets, barring the banged-up Grizzlies losing another player to an injury.

Kawamura made his return to action after missing the Grizzlies' previous three games with an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder. He was technically part of head coach Taylor Jenkins' rotation Monday, as Kawamura entered the game with 4:54 left in the first quarter before checking out with 2:36 remaining after committing his second foul. Kawamura didn't re-enter the contest at any point after that, so he'll likely find himself back outside of the rotation Thursday versus the Rockets, barring the banged-up Grizzlies losing another player to an injury.
Kawamura (shoulder) is available for Monday's game against the Mavericks. The two-way player will fight off a shoulder injury to play Monday, but Kawamura isn't guaranteed to handle significant playing time off the bench. With that said, he may see more minutes than usual, as Ja Morant (shoulder) and Desmond Bane (ankle) are both out against Dallas.
Kawamura (shoulder) is probable for Monday's game against the Mavericks, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports. Kawamura has missed the last three games due to a left shoulder sprain, but he is likely to return to action Monday. With numerous Grizzlies players sidelined, Kawamura would return to a perfect scenario to see some run, but it remains unlikely he will be fantasy-viable.
Kawamura (shoulder) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Warriors, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports. Kawamura will miss his third straight game Saturday due to a left shoulder sprain. He didn't see much playing time off the bench before his injury, so his absence has a minimal impact on the Grizzlies' bench rotation.
Kawamura (shoulder) has been listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Warriors. Kawamura has missed eight of the last nine games for the Grizzlies and appears on track to miss another game against the Warriors on Saturday. He has only played limited minutes in the 15 games he's been on the floor for Memphis this season, averaging 1.6 points per game.
Kawamura (shoulder) is out for Friday's game against the Kings. Kawamura had a chance to return Friday against the Kings, but the game ultimately came too soon for him. Kawamura's next chance to play will come against the Warriors on Saturday in the second leg of a back-to-back set.
Kawamura (shoulder) is questionable for Friday's game against the Kings. Kawamura sat out Tuesday's matchup with the Suns due to a left shoulder injury, but he's in contention to return Friday. Memphis should have a better idea of his availability closer to tipoff.
Kawamura (shoulder) won't play Tuesday against the Suns. Kawamura finished with 10 points in 11 minutes Sunday against OKC but will be forced to sit Tuesday with a shoulder injury. Scotty Pippen and Luke Kennard could pick up a few additional chances in the backcourt as a result.
Kawamura (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Suns. Kawamura is dealing with left shoulder soreness, and he is in jeopardy of joining Ja Morant (shoulder) and Marcus Smart (finger) on the sideline Tuesday. Kawamura played a season-high 11 minutes in Sunday's loss to the Thunder, during which he posted 10 points (4-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists. The rookie should see increased playing time if he's able to suit up, as a laundry list of Grizzlies players have already been ruled out.
