Set to make season debut Saturday Jerome (calf) is available for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves.

Impact Jerome will make his regular-season debut with the Grizzlies after suffering a high-grade right calf strain in the preseason. However, head coach Tuomas Iisalo said pregame that he will be on a "very strict minutes restriction," per Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian. The 28-year-old guard is coming off a career-best year with the Cavaliers in 2024-25, during which he averaged 12.5 points, 3.4 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals across 19.9 minutes per game in 70 regular-season outings (three starts).

Closing in on season debut Grizzlies head coach Tuomas Iisalo said Friday that Jerome (calf) is likely to make his season debut within 1-to-2 weeks, Jonah Dylan of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact After inking a two-year, $18 million deal with Memphis in the offseason, Jerome has yet to make his Grizzlies debut while he works his way back from the high-grade right calf strain he sustained late in the preseason. According to Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal, Iisalo said that Jerome has resumed taking part in 5-on-5 work in practices, and assuming the veteran guard experiences no setbacks while building up over the next week or two, he'll get the green light to play in games. With the Grizzlies announcing Saturday that Ja Morant (elbow) will be out at least three weeks before being re-evaluated, Jerome could be called upon to handle a prominent role in the Memphis backcourt right away upon gaining clearance.

Ruled out for Wednesday Jerome is out for Wednesday's game against the Hawks due to a right calf strain.

Impact Jerome is not yet ready to make his season debut while rehabbing from a high-grade strain. Friday's tilt against the Pelicans marks the guard's next opportunity to play. Cam Spencer should have the backup spot at point guard all to himself behind Ja Morant for at least one more contest.

Out for Europe games Jerome (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Magic in Berlin.

Impact Grizzlies head coach Tuomas Iisalo said Sunday that he didn't anticipate having Jerome available for either of their upcoming games in Europe, so the veteran guard's absence looks like it will extended through at least this coming Sunday's rematch with the Magic in London. On a positive note, Jerome did make the trip with the Grizzlies to Germany, and Iisalo added that the 28-year-old has resumed on-court work. Jerome has been out all season while recovering from a high-grade right calf strain, but he looks like he could have a chance at making his Grizzlies debut at some point before the end of January.
