Impact Small has been sidelined since being diagnosed with turf toe back on Nov. 8. Based on this timetable, Small's earliest return date would be Dec. 7 against the Trail Blazers. Small is on a two-way contract and has appeared in eight regular-season games thus far for 12.5 minutes per contest.

Still sidelined Small (toe) won't play in Saturday's game against Cleveland.

Impact Small is battling turf toe on his left foot, and the issue will keep him sidelined for a fourth consecutive game. It's unclear when he'll be able to return to the hardwood, but his absence should have minimal impact on the Grizzlies' rotation. His next chance to play will come Tuesday against San Antonio.

Ruled out for Tuesday Small (toe) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Small will miss his second consecutive contest due to left toe soreness, and his next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Celtics. The rookie second-rounder has seen little playing time of late, so his absence shouldn't cause any significant waves in the rotation.

Sidelined Sunday Small (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Small will be sidelined Sunday due to left toe soreness. The rookie guard logged double-digit minutes in each of the first five games of the season but has seen a reduced role since, so his absence shouldn't significantly impact the Grizzlies' rotation.

Transferred to NBA The Grizzlies transferred Small from the G League's Memphis Hustle on Monday.

Impact Small was previously sent to practice with the Hustle, though he'll rejoin the Grizzlies ahead of Monday's game against the Pistons. The rookie point guard has appeared in six regular-season games so far, averaging 5.3 points and 3.7 assists in 16.0 minutes per contest.

Scores 16 off bench Small totaled 16 points (5-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six assists and two rebounds in 21 minutes during Saturday's 128-103 victory over the Pacers.

Impact Small made the most of his minutes off the bench Saturday, sparking the Grizzlies with energy and efficiency while finishing as one of five players in double figures and posting a plus-18 plus-minus. The rookie out of West Virginia wasn't a highly touted prospect entering the league, but his early production -- averaging 8.3 points and 5.7 rebounds in 20.7 minutes per game through three contests -- has earned him trust from the Memphis coaching staff as he fills in capably for Ty Jerome (calf) and Scotty Pippen (toe) at backup point guard.

Leads Grizz bench with 16 points Small tallied 16 points (6-8 FG, 4-5 3Pt), five assists and one rebound during the Grizzlies' 141-125 preseason win over the Heat on Friday.

Impact Small reverted to a reserve role in Friday's exhibition contest due to the return of Ty Jerome, though the latter didn't return to the game after injuring his right calf in the first quarter. Small ended up playing 21 minutes and led the bench in scoring while pacing both teams with four three-pointers. The rookie second-rounder has logged at least five assists in each of his four preseason outings and has scored in double-digits in his last two appearances. Small could see some playing time early in the regular season if Jerome and Scotty Pippen (toe) miss time.

Not starting Friday Small is not in the starting lineup for Friday's exhibition with the Heat.

Impact Ty Jerome is back from a rest day, so Small will shift back to the second unit Friday evening. Through three preseason games, Small has contributed averages of 9.0 points, 6.3 assists and 3.7 turnovers per contest in 27.3 minutes a night.

OCTOBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Fares well in loss Small logged 18 points (6-9 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight assists, four rebounds and one block in 28 minutes of Wednesday's 145-116 preseason loss to Charlotte.

Impact The No. 48 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, Small drew the start in this contest and was a bright spot for the team. Scotty Pippen has been sidelined by a toe issue, so Small has been getting an extended look in Ja Morant's (ankle) absence. For now, the expectation is that Small will see some reps in the G League to open his professional career, but he's certainly making an impression on the team.

OCTOBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Wednesday Small will be in the starting lineup for Wednesday's preseason game against the Hornets, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.

Impact After coming off the bench during Saturday's preseason matchup against the Hawks, Small will be in the first unit. The West Virginia product joins Jaylen Wells, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Jaren Jackson and Jock Landale in the starting lineup.
