Grizzlies must get one crucial area of Cedric Coward's development right Cedric Coward is having an impressive rookie season. The Grizzlies must focus on this one crucial area of his development.
MARCH 13 • BEALESTREETBEARS.COM
Good to go Friday Coward (knee) is available for Friday's game against Detroit.
Impact Coward is no longer on the injury report after missing the front end of this back-to-back set. Look for the rookie to play a modest workload as the Grizzlies continue to evaluate several fringe rotation players.
MARCH 13 • ROTOWIRE
Ruled out for Thursday Coward (knee) won't play Thursday against the Mavs.
Impact Coward will sit out Thursday's game, with it being the first of a back-to-back set, but he should return for Friday's meeting with the Pistons. With Coward unavailable, Jahmai Mashack, Javon Small and Rayan Rupert should see an uptick in minutes.
MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE
Doubtful for Thursday Coward is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against Dallas due to right knee injury management.
Impact Coward is likely to be held out of the opening leg of the Grizzlies' back-to-back set for rest purposes. With several of Coward's teammates also listed as out or doubtful, Memphis could be forced to lean on Javon Small, Cam Spencer (back), Jahmai Mashack and Rayan Rupert in the backcourt.

Double-doubles in return Coward logged 13 points (4-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 16 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 24 minutes during the Grizzlies' 139-129 loss to the 76ers on Tuesday.
Impact Coward was back in action Tuesday after missing Monday's loss to the Nets due to a lingering knee injury. He was moved back into the starting lineup and made an impact on the boards, tying a career high in rebounds (including seven on offense). Coward will continue to have his minutes monitored while managing his knee injury, but he's shown to be productive even with limited run time.
MARCH 11 • ROTOWIRE
Back in starting five Coward is in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the 76ers on Tuesday.
Impact Coward was cleared to play Tuesday after missing Monday's loss against the Nets due to a knee injury, and the rookie first-rounder will start for Memphis in his return. In his last outing against the Clippers on Saturday, Coward played 22 minutes and finished with 15 points, seven rebounds, one block and two three-pointers (on eight attempts).
MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE
Omitted from injury report Coward (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the 76ers.
Impact Coward didn't play in Monday's loss in Brooklyn, but he'll be back in action for the second half of Memphis' back-to-back set. He's appeared in only three games since Feb. 6, coming off the bench in his past two outings. With Scotty Pippen (toe) out and Walter Clayton (ankle) questionable, Coward may slide back into the starting lineup for the first time since Feb. 9, but he'll likely still be under a minutes restriction.
MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE
Officially out Coward (knee) won't play Monday against the Nets.
Impact Coward was downgraded to doubtful ahead of Monday's matchup, so the fact that he's been ruled out isn't much of a surprise. This should open up plenty of opportunities for Walter Clayton, Jahmai Mashack and Cam Spencer in the backcourt.
MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE
Unlikely for Monday Coward is doubtful for Monday's game due to right knee injury management.
Impact Coward has appeared in two of the team's last three games, but he appears set to miss Monday's contest as he continues to nurse a knee injury. If he is officially ruled out, more minutes will be available for Walter Clayton, Jahmai Mashack and Cam Spencer.

Not listed on injury report Coward (knee) isn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Clippers.
Impact The rookie first-rounder missed Wednesday's loss to Portland -- the second leg of a back-to-back -- due to right knee injury management. However, he's set to return Saturday. His return to the lineup will leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Jahmai Mashack, Javon Small and Rayan Rupert. Coward has appeared in just one outing since the All-Star break, posting 15 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 21 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's loss to Minnesota.
MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play Wednesday Coward (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Impact Coward will hit the sidelines for the second leg of this back-to-back set, but he should be able to get back out there for Saturday's meeting with the Clippers. With Coward out, expect more minutes for Walter Clayton, Jahmai Mashack and Cam Spencer.

Doubtful for Wednesday Coward (knee) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Portland.
Impact As expected, the Grizzlies are planning to hold Coward out for maintenance for the second leg of this back-to-back set. The rookie returned from a seven-game absence Tuesday against the Timberwolves and finished with 15 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 21 minutes.

Fares well off bench Coward (knee) finished with 15 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 117-110 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Coward returned from a seven-game absence Tuesday and played a limited role off the bench, but he made the most of his minutes. The Grizzlies have been super cautious with all their key players, making it unlikely that Coward will suit up for the second leg of this back-to-back set Wednesday against the Trail Blazers.

Fares well off bench Coward (knee) finished with 15 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 117-110 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Back in action after a seven-game absence due to a right knee posterior capsule sprain, Coward was deployed off the bench and had his minutes managed, but he made the most of his time on the court. The Grizzlies have been cautious with all their key players coming off of injuries, so Coward could be a candidate to sit out Wednesday against the Trail Blazers in the second leg of a back-to-back set.
