DeJon Jarreau News, Rumors, Updates - Memphis Grizzlies

Deal expires, reaches free agency Jarreau became a free agent Thursday after his second 10-day contract with the Grizzlies expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Impact If Memphis is interested in retaining Jarreau, the team will need to re-sign him to a rest-of-season deal, which would likely be finalized ahead of its next game Friday versus the Raptors. Since signing his initial 10-day deal March 13, the 28-year-old guard has appeared in each of the Grizzlies' ensuing 11 games and has shot 39.8 percent from the field and 13.3 percent from downtown while averaging 8.0 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.7 blocks in 21.0 minutes.

Adds 12 points off bench Jarreau ended with 12 points (4-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 33 minutes during Monday's 131-105 loss to Phoenix.

Impact Jarreau wasn't afraid to let it fly on the offensive end, and while he wasn't exactly efficient from the field, he managed to end the night in double figures for a second straight game. He reached a season high in minutes Monday given Memphis' extensive injury report, and he could continue to see opportunities to show what he can do down the stretch of the regular season, as the Grizzlies don't have much to play for.

Upgraded to available Monday Jarreau (elbow) is available for Monday's game against Phoenix.

Impact Jarreau exited Saturday's 125-124 win over the Chicago Bulls because of a elbow injury and was in danger of missing this contest. However, he will suit up. With a lengthy injury report for the Grizzlies Monday, Jarreau should receive plenty of minutes regardless of his role.

MARCH 30 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Monday Jarreau (elbow) is questionable for Monday's game against the Suns.

Impact Jarreau left Saturday's game against the Bulls early due to a right elbow injury that now has his status for Monday in question. If he is unable to go, Cam Spencer and Adama Bal are likely to see expanded minutes, especially if Walter Clayton (ankle, questionable) is ruled out.

Exits early Saturday Jarreau exited Saturday's 125-124 win over the Bulls in the fourth quarter and did not return due to right elbow soreness, finishing with 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-5 FT), three assists,...

Impact Jarreau checked out of this one with 6:18 remaining in the final quarter and was deemed doubtful to return. He should be considered questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Suns until Memphis offers an update on his status.

MARCH 29 • ROTOWIRE

Doubtful to return Saturday Jarreau is doubtful to return to Saturday's game against the Bulls due to right elbow soreness.

Impact Jarreau checked out of Saturday's contest with 6:18 remaining in the fourth and is not expected to return. If he doesn't check back in, he'll finish with 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-5 FT), three assists, two rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 19 minutes.

MARCH 29 • ROTOWIRE

Season-high 15 points Jarreau racked up 15 points (5-15 FG, 2-11 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and three steals in 15 minutes during Wednesday's 123-98 loss to the Spurs.

Impact With Memphis beginning to shut down several of their key contributors, Jarreau appears to be one of the beneficiaries while riding a 10-day deal. The 15 points Wednesday were a season high, though Jarreau has played at least 25 minutes just one time in his first seven games in 2025-26.

With both Jarreau and Tyler Burton having had their 10-day hardship contracts expire within the last two days, the Grizzlies are now down to a standard 15-man roster plus three two-way players. However, with Memphis listing eight players as out and two more as questionable or doubtful for Monday's game in Atlanta, the NBA could extend the Grizzlies another hardship exception or two, which the could use to re-sign Jarreau and/or Burton. Expect any signing by the team to be announced prior to Monday's game, but if Jarreau isn't added back to the Grizzlies roster, he'll likely remain in the organization as a member of its G League affiliate, the Memphis Hustle.

Jarreau has played 23-plus minutes in three of four outings with the Grizzlies, and that playing time would be absorbed by Walter Clayton, Cam Spencer and Javon Small if Jarreau is unable to play Saturday.

Hits free agency Jarreau became a free agent Saturday after his second 10-day contract with the Grizzlies expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Impact The Grizzlies could retain Jarreau by signing him to a rest-of-season deal and waiving another player, but the team doesn't seem to be looking to go that route, as Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported Friday that Memphis will bring Zavier Simpson aboard on a 10-day deal to fill the vacant spot on the 15-man roster. Assuming Jarreau isn't re-signed prior to the Grizzlies' game Saturday versus the Magic, he'll likely link back up with the organization's G League affiliate, the Memphis Hustle, with whom he had been playing before signing a pair of 10-day deals. During his time at the NBA level, Jarreau appeared in nine games for the Grizzlies and averaged 4.8 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.9 assists in 16.7 minutes.

Gets second 10-day deal Jarreau agreed to a second 10-day hardship contract with the Grizzlies on Tuesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact The Grizzlies continue to be hit hard by injuries, so even though the team already has a full 15-man roster, Jarreau will be able to stick around on another 10-day deal after the NBA granted Memphis a hardship exemption. Over the course of his first 10-day pact, Jarreau appeared in five games and averaged 5.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.0 steals in 17.6 minutes while shooting 33.3 percent from the field.

Impact This was quite the debut for Jarreau, who just signed a 10-day hardship contract with the Grizzlies on Saturday. Considering how many injuries the Grizzlies currently have, fantasy managers may want to throw Jarreau on their watch lists in case he's able to build on this momentum.

He will now look to make an impression with the Grizzlies.
