Memphis Grizzlies News and Rumors - NBA

Taylor Hendricks - Nails season-high five triples Hendricks amassed 19 points (7-11 FG, 5-8 3Pt), five rebounds and one steal across 24 minutes during Sunday's 125-106 win over the Pacers.

Impact Hendricks found himself bouncing around between the G League and the NBA during his time with the Jazz, but he's carving out a steady role since landing with Memphis. Over his first 10 contests with the Grizzlies (two starts), the third-year forward has averaged 10.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.1 steals in 23.6 minutes per game.

Walter Clayton Jr. - Hands out season-high 14 dimes Clayton notched seven points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, 14 assists, one block and four steals in 34 minutes during Sunday's 125-106 win over the Pacers.

Impact Making his second career start, Clayton set a season high in both dimes and swipes. The Grizzlies are likely to continue shuffling their starting lineup around until Ja Morant (elbow) is cleared to return, and Clayton is beginning to flash his potential as a playmaker. Across his first seven outings for Memphis, the rookie first-rounder has averaged 8.4 points, 6.4 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 25.6 minutes per game.

Rayan Rupert - Season-high 16 points off bench Rupert accumulated 16 points (4-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 33 minutes during Sunday's 125-106 victory over the Pacers.

Impact The 16 points were a season high for Rupert, who also chipped in a full stat line. With Ja Morant (elbow) out indefinitely, Rupert is slowly becoming a player for deep-league fantasy managers to consider. Over his past four contests, Rupert has averaged 9.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.3 assists in 27.2 minutes per game.

Javon Small - Reverting to bench role Sunday Small is not in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the Pacers on Sunday, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.

Impact The rookie second-rounder made his first NBA start against the Warriors on Wednesday and was in the starting five in Friday's loss against the Mavericks, when he logged nine points, five assists, four rebounds, two steals and one three-pointer over 26 minutes. Small will return to the bench for Sunday's contest while the Grizzlies roll with a starting five of Walter Clayton, Scotty Pippen, GG Jackson, Jaylen Wells and Olivier-Maxence Prosper.

Walter Clayton Jr. - Moving to starting role Clayton is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pacers, per Tony East of Forbes.com.

Impact Clayton will slide into the starting five for Sunday's matchup, replacing fellow rookie Javon Small, who had started the Grizzlies' last two contests. This move comes as head coach Tuomas Iisalo continues to shuffle his backcourt with Ty Jerome (thigh) officially ruled out and several other rotation pieces sidelined.

Grizzlies' Zach Edey to Undergo Second Ankle Surgery, Putting Season Return in Doubt The center has been out since Dec. 7 because of his ankle discomfort.

7 HOURS AGO • SI.COM

Zach Edey - Will undergo ankle surgery The Grizzlies announced Sunday that Edey is without a timetable for a return and will undergo surgery to address lingering discomfort and talar bone stress in his left ankle.

Impact Edey underwent surgery on the same ankle last June and hasn't played since Dec. 7 due to the ongoing injury. The Grizzlies are expected to provide a clearer timeline for the big man's return to action following his surgery, though it wouldn't be shocking to see the 22-36 Grizzlies shut him down for the remainder of the season. Edey is expected to make a full recovery.

Brandon Clarke - To be re-evaluated in two weeks The Grizzlies announced Sunday that Clarke (calf) will be re-evaluated in two weeks.

Impact Clarke has been sidelined since Dec. 20 with a Grade 2 right calf strain, an injury he sustained in just his second game back from offseason knee surgery. While the veteran forward was initially given a 4-to-6-week recovery timeline in mid-January, his return has been delayed as he works through the reconditioning process. This latest update suggests Clarke is unlikely to return before mid-March, potentially leaving him with only a handful of regular-season games to ramp up his workload. With Clarke still out and Zach Edey (ankle) also sidelined, the Grizzlies will continue to rely on Santi Aldama and GG Jackson to handle the bulk of the frontcourt minutes.

Ty Jerome - Out for Sunday Jerome (thigh) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers, per Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star.

Impact Jerome will miss his second consecutive contest due to a left thigh contusion sustained during his 22-point performance against the Warriors last Wednesday. In his absence, Memphis will continue to rely on Scotty Pippen, Walter Clayton, and Javon Small to handle the bulk of the backcourt minutes.

Cedric Coward - Not playing Sunday Coward (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against hte Pacers, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Coward drew the doubtful tag for Sunday's game while managing from a right knee sprain, so it comes as no surprise that the rookie first-rounder will be sidelined for a seventh straight game. Walter Clayton, Rayan Rupert and Jaylen Wells should all continue to see extended playing time for as long as Coward is sidelined. Coward's next chance to play is Tuesday against the Timberwolves.

Santi Aldama - Ruled out Sunday Aldama (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Aldama is still managing a right knee injury and will miss a 10th consecutive contest Sunday. He has appeared in just one game dating back to Jan. 28. With the 25-year-old big man remaining on the shelf, Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Taylor Hendricks will likely continue seeing increased minutes. Aldama's next chance to play will come Tuesday against Minnesota.
