Kentavious Caldwell-Pope - Won't return in 2025-26 The Grizzlies announced Thursday that Caldwell-Pope underwent surgery to address the misalignment of his right pinky finger and will miss the remainder of the 2025-26 campaign.

Impact Caldwell-Pope is expected to make a full recovery ahead of next season and holds a $21.6 million player option for 2026-27. He'll finish this season with averages of 8.4 points, 2.7 assists and 2.5 rebounds in 21.3 minutes per contest across 51 regular-season games (14 starts). Cam Spencer, Walter Clayton (calf) and Jahmai Mashack are candidates to see an uptick in minutes due to Caldwell-Pope being sidelined for the rest of the campaign.

Scotty Pippen Jr. - Ruled out for Friday Pippen has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Jazz due to left great toe injury management.

Impact Pippen will miss the front end of this back-to-back set but could return for Saturday's game against Miami. With the Grizzlies set to be extremely shorthanded in the backcourt, Cam Spencer, Jahmai Mashack and Javon Small should see an uptick in minutes.

Walter Clayton Jr. - Unlikely to go Friday Clayton (calf) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Jazz.

Impact Clayton is headed for his third straight absence after picking up a right calf injury. Expect official word from Memphis closer to Friday's tipoff.

Cedric Coward - Out for Friday Coward (knee) won't play in Friday's game against the Jazz.

Impact Coward will miss his second consecutive contest due to a hyperextended right knee, and his next opportunity to suit up will come Saturday against Miami. With the rookie first-rounder joining Ja Morant (elbow), Scotty Pippen (toe), Ty Jerome (calf) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (finger) on the sidelines, Cam Spencer, Jahmai Mashack and Javon Small are candidates for increased playing time, especially if Walter Clayton (calf) is downgraded from doubtful to out.

Ty Jerome - Sitting Friday Jerome is out for Friday's game against Utah due to right calf injury management.

Impact Jerome will take a seat in his team's first game out of the All-Star break. Scotty Pippen (toe) is also out, so it'll presumably up to Cam Spencer, Javon Small and Jahmai Mashack to eat up minutes in the backcourt Friday night.

8 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Santi Aldama - Ruled out for Friday Aldama (knee) is out for Friday's game against Utah.

Impact With the All-Star break in the rear-view mirror, the Grizzlies appear to be in no hurry to bring Aldama back. That said, his next chance to play comes Saturday in Miami. Kyle Anderson and Taylor Hendricks should take on the majority of the center minutes Friday.

Ja Morant - Out at least two more weeks Morant is continuing to experience discomfort during his recovery from a UCL sprain in his left elbow, and he'll be reevaluated in two weeks, the Grizzlies announced.

Impact Morant has been sidelined since Jan 21 due to a UCL sprain, and his recovery hasn't gone according to plan. Despite being almost a full month into the rehab process, Morant's elbow continues to be a source of pain. While Morant is absent, look for Ty Jerome and Scotty Pippen to handle most of the point guard minutes. If Morant is cleared after 14 days, he could be back for a March 7 game against the Clippers.

Impact Caldwell-Pope is expected to make a full recovery from his surgery, but the Grizzlies will wait until after the surgery to provide an exact timetable for the veteran's return. He has averaged 21.3 minutes per game this season while serving in a bench role, and those minutes will likely be absorbed by Taylor Hendricks, Ty Jerome and Jahmai Mashack for as long as Caldwell-Pope is sidelined.
