Kyle Anderson - Won't play Monday Anderson (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Sacramento.

Impact Anderson missed Saturday's contest and had been listed as doubtful due to right knee soreness, so his absence doesn't come as much of a surprise. With the veteran forward inactive, Taylor Hendricks is likely to draw the start at center, while Olivier-Maxence Prosper and GG Jackson could see increased minutes off the bench.

Ty Jerome - Not expected to play Monday Jerome is unlikely to play Monday against the Kings, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Ty Jerome - Dealing with illness Jerome (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Kings.

Impact Jerome was a late addition to the injury report, and that's usually not a great sign in fantasy hoops. If Jerome is unable to shake this questionable tag, the Grizzlies could lean heavily on Scotty Pippen and Cam Spencer.

Rayan Rupert - Gets opportunity with Memphis The Grizzlies signed Rupert to a 10-day contract Sunday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Walter Clayton Jr. - Nine points, six dimes in return Clayton (calf) provided nine points (4-11 FG, 1-6 3Pt), six assists and four rebounds across 25 minutes in Saturday's 136-120 loss to the Heat.

Impact Back in action after missing the Grizzlies' previous three games due to a right calf contusion, Clayton stepped into the starting five in place of GG Jackson, who headed to the bench after a six-game run on the top unit. Clayton won't be guaranteed to stick in the starting five moving forward, and he could be headed to the bench as soon as Monday against the Kings, if one of Cedric Coward (knee) or Santi Aldama (knee) is able to return. Since being acquired from the Jazz at the trade deadline, Clayton has appeared in three games for Memphis and is averaging 9.3 points, 5.7 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 25.0 minutes per contest.

Ty Jerome - Contributes to look sharp Jerome finished Saturday's 136-120 loss to the Heat with 17 points (6-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals across 22 minutes.

Impact Memphis has played it safe with Jerome since making his season debut last month. He missed first half of the season due to a calf strain and has been playing under minutes restriction. Through seven games he's averaging 19.3 points, 5.7 assists, 2.4 made threes, and 1.3 steals in only 20.6 minutes per game. If the minutes restriction eases, Jerome could have a big finish to the regular season.

GG Jackson - Scores team-high 28 Jackson had 28 points (11-17 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-8 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 26 minutes during Saturday's 136-120 loss to the Heat.

Impact Coming off the bench did not hinder Jackson's performance against the Heat. He scored a team-high 28 points and was one rebound shy of a double-double. It's Jackson's third game in a row surpassing 20 points. He's also had at least one block or steal in nine consecutive games.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Jaylen Wells - Goes off for 25 points Wells finished Saturday's 136-120 loss to the Heat with 25 points (10-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 27 minutes.

Impact Wells tied his season-high in scoring with 25 points against the Heat. He was the team's second leading scorer in defeat, and Wells now has scored double-digits in nine straight games. As long as he's in the starting lineup, Wells could be a steady fantasy contributor.
