Latest Grizzlies News
Zach Edey : Won’t play Sunday
Edey (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers. Per Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal on Friday, head coach Taylor Jenkins relayed that Edey should return to action in the upcoming week. While Edey won't play Sunday, his next opportunity to play will be against the Mavericks on Tuesday. Brandon Clarke will continue to start at center for the Grizzlies due to Edey's injury.
Luke Kennard : Limited role Friday
Kennard amassed three points (1-4 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 17 minutes during Friday's 120-109 win over New Orleans. Kennard played fewer than 20 minutes for the first time in the past seven games. With the Grizzlies starting to get healthy for the first time in what feels like years, Kennard's role is likely to be somewhat sporadic based on how he is shooting the ball on any given night. At this point, he is more of a three-point specialist who struggles to contribute elsewhere.
Ja Morant : Scores team-high 27 points
Morant ended with 27 points (10-18 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and three steals over 29 minutes during Friday's 120-109 win over the Pelicans. Morant returned from a one-game absence, leading the Grizzlies with 27 points. Despite the injury-related absences, Morant has been able to put his best foot forward when healthy, having scored at least 20 points in all but two games thus far. He is also averaging a career-high 9.1 assists, an element of his game that could certainly boost his overall appeal. Moving forward, the hope is simply that he can remain healthy as the Grizzlies look to atone for last season.
Desmond Bane : Shooting woes continue
Bane ended Friday's 120-109 victory over the Pelicans with seven points (3-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 26 minutes. Bane continues to struggle on the offensive end, having shot a combined 10-of-36 from the field over the past four games. An injury after just five games certainly slowed his momentum following a solid start to the season. However, he has now suited up eight times since returning, making his shooting slump a little more baffling. Based on what we have seen from Bane in the past, he should be able to find a way to rectify the situation, starting with what should be an uptempo contest against the Pacers on Sunday.
Scotty Pippen : Slides back to bench Friday
Pippen will come off the bench in Friday's game against the Pelicans. With Ja Morant (knee) returning to game action, Pippen will retreat to his normal role off the bench. In his last five outings (four starts), the 24-year-old averaged 15.2 points, 5.4 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 1.0 steals while shooting 58.5 percent across 25.4 minutes per game. It wouldn't come as a surprise if Morant remains under a minutes restriction, meaning Pippen could still see an uptick in playing time off the bench.
Ja Morant : Gets green light Friday
Morant (knee) is listed as available for Friday's game against the Pelicans. Morant sustained a left knee bone bruise during his return to game action in Monday's win over Portland, though he'll return Friday after missing Wednesday's win over Detroit. The superstar had missed eight games prior to Monday due to a right hip subluxation and pelvic muscle strains, but he will play through the knee injury. Morant will likely remain under a minutes restriction, which could open up additional playing time for Scotty Pippen and Jaylen Wells.
Zach Edey : Nearing return
Coach Taylor Jenkins said Friday that Edey (ankle) will likely return to action at the end of this week or early next week, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports. Edey will miss his sixth straight contest Friday due to a left ankle injury. However, the rookie big man could suit up as soon as Sunday's game versus the Pacers. Until Edey is able to return, Brandon Clarke should continue to start at center for Memphis.
Ja Morant : Probable for Friday
Morant (knee) is probable for Friday's game against the Pelicans. The probable tag suggests Morant should be able to return Friday following his absence from Wednesday's game against the Pistons. Morant recently missed eight games due to a hip injury, and the Grizzlies need him to be healthy to reach their full potential. The star point guard is averaging 20.8 points, 9.3 assists and 4.7 rebounds per game this season. If he's available to play Friday, then Scotty Pippen would probably move back to the bench.
