Won't play Monday Kawamura (hamstring) is out for Monday's game against the Hawks.

Impact Kawamura has yet to appear in a game since the All-Star break and doesn't figure to see much run with the parent organization down the stretch of the season. He will likely spend the majority of his time in the G League when he is healthy.

Grizzlies Make Yuki Kawamura Announcement After 20 NBA Games Rookie Yuki Kawamura has appeared in 20 games for the Memphis Grizzlies this season.

FEBRUARY 20, 2025 • THENEWSTRIBUNE.COM

Rare appearance in win Kawamura closed Wednesday's 138-107 win over the Raptors with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one assist over four minutes.

Impact Kawamura appeared for just the third time in the past 14 games, all of which have been during garbage time only. Given the current depth in Memphis, Kawamura would need a miracle to have any chance of playing a meaningful role this season.

FEBRUARY 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Makes brief cameo in return Kawamura (shoulder) tallied zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one assist across two minutes in Monday's 119-104 win over the Mavericks.

Impact Kawamura made his return to action after missing the Grizzlies' previous three games with an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder. He was technically part of head coach Taylor Jenkins' rotation Monday, as Kawamura entered the game with 4:54 left in the first quarter before checking out with 2:36 remaining after committing his second foul. Kawamura didn't re-enter the contest at any point after that, so he'll likely find himself back outside of the rotation Thursday versus the Rockets, barring the banged-up Grizzlies losing another player to an injury.

JANUARY 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Available Monday Kawamura (shoulder) is available for Monday's game against the Mavericks.

Impact The two-way player will fight off a shoulder injury to play Monday, but Kawamura isn't guaranteed to handle significant playing time off the bench. With that said, he may see more minutes than usual, as both Ja Morant (shoulder) and Desmond Bane are out against Dallas.

JANUARY 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Probable for Monday Kawamura (shoulder) is probable for Monday's game against the Mavericks, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Impact Kawamura has missed the last three games due to a left shoulder sprain, but he is likely to return to action Monday. With numerous Grizzlies players sidelined, Kawamura would return to a perfect scenario to see some run, but it remains unlikely he will be fantasy-viable.

JANUARY 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out Saturday Kawamura (shoulder) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Warriors, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports.

Impact Kawamura will miss his third straight game Saturday due to a left shoulder sprain. He didn't see much playing time off the bench before his injury, so his absence has a minimal impact on the Grizzlies' bench rotation.

JANUARY 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Likely won't play Saturday Kawamura (shoulder) has been listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Warriors.

Impact Kawamura has missed eight of the last nine games for the Grizzlies and appears on track to miss another game against the Warriors on Saturday. He has only played limited minutes in the 15 games he's been on the floor for Memphis this season, averaging 1.6 points per game.
