    Grizzlies' Taj Gibson: May debut Friday

    Gibson (reconditioning) is questionable for Friday's game against the Pistons.

    Gibson could make his Grizzlies and season debut Friday, but even if he gets the green light to suit up, it's unclear how involved he'll be. However, Memphis doesn't have a true center healthy at the moment, running with Olivier-Maxence Prosper, Taylor Hendricks and Rayan Rupert as small-ball fives in recent games, so Gibson's size could be prioritized.

  • Jordan Goodwin SG | PHO

    Suns' Jordan Goodwin: Questionable for Friday

    Goodwin is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Raptors due to left calf injury management.

    Goodwin is a candidate for a maintenance day as the Suns wrap up a back-to-back set in Toronto. After missing seven straight games with a left calf strain, he returned to action this week, appearing in both Tuesday's win over Milwaukee and Thursday's victory over Indiana. Goodwin has been a productive spark plug off the bench this season, averaging 8.8 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.4 steals. Given the Suns' cautious approach with his recent calf injury, it wouldn't be surprising to see him sit out tonight to avoid a heavy workload.

  • Grizzlies' GG Jackson: Dealing with foot soreness

    Jackson (foot) is questionable for Friday's game against the Pistons.

    After posting 20 points (8-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-5 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block over 31 minutes during Thursday's 120-112 loss to Dallas, Jackson is in danger of missing the second half of Memphis' back-to-back set. If he's sidelined, Taylor Hendricks would likely be the primary beneficiary.

  • Jaylen Wells SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Iffy for Friday

    Wells is questionable for Friday's game against the Pistons with a right shoulder contusion.

    Friday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so there's a good chance Wells receives a maintenance day. He looked sharp in Thursday's loss to Dallas with 23 points (7-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 32 minutes.

  • Grizzlies' Walter Clayton: Unlikely to play Friday

    Clayton (ankle) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Pistons.

    Clayton is expected to miss a third straight game due to a right ankle sprain. In Clayton's presumed absence, Cam Spencer and Javon Small should see solid minutes off the bench behind Ty Jerome and Cedric Coward on Friday.

  • Pacers' Quenton Jackson: Doubtful for Friday

    Jackson (calf) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Knicks.

    Jackson is expected to miss a second straight game while working through right calf soreness. In his presumed absence, Kam Jones could see more minutes.

  • Cedric Coward SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Good to go Friday

    Coward (knee) is available for Friday's game against Detroit.

    Coward is no longer on the injury report after missing the front end of this back-to-back set. Look for the rookie to play a modest workload as the Grizzlies continue to evaluate several fringe rotation players.

  • Ty Jerome SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Ty Jerome: Cleared to play Friday

    Jerome (calf) isn't listed on Memphis' injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Pistons.

    As expected, Jerome will return to action after missing the first half of this back-to-back set. While he continues to sit out games, Jerome has been stellar when available, averaging 20.0 points, 5.6 assists, 2.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 21.7 minutes per game.

  • Santi Aldama C | MEM

    Grizzlies' Santi Aldama: Another absence coming

    Aldama (knee) is out for Friday's game against Detroit.

    Aldama will miss a 17th straight game and remains without a timetable to return. His next chance to play comes Monday against Chicago.

  • Cam Spencer PG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Cam Spencer: Cleared to play

    Spencer (back) is available for Friday's game against Detroit.

    Spencer is no longer on the injury report after missing the front end of this back-to-back set. Spencer may be hard to trust in fantasy hoops, given Memphis' volatile rotations and injury reports, but Walter Clayton (ankle) is doubtful Friday, Scotty Pippen (toe) is done for the season, and it's unclear when or if Ja Morant (elbow) will suit up again, opening the door for Spencer to see decent minutes as a resreve against Detroit.
