  • Javon Small PG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Javon Small: Won't play Monday

    Small (thigh) is out for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

    Small is now going to be in street clothes for both ends of this back-to-back set with a bruised left thigh. With the Grizzlies ravaged by injuries, Lucas Williamson and Adama Bal should see extra opportunities in the backcourt Monday.

  • Grizzlies' Taylor Hendricks: Unlikely to play Monday

    Hendricks (thumb) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

    A right thumb sprain is likely to prevent Hendricks from playing Monday. Dariq Whitehead and Toby Okani should soak up more playing time in the frontcourt versus Cleveland.

  • Taj Gibson PF | MEM

    Grizzlies' Taj Gibson: Doubtful for Monday

    Gibson (foot) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

    Gibson is expected to miss the second leg of this back-to-back set, leaving the Grizzlies incredibly thin in the frontcourt. The veteran big man had missed the Grizzlies' previous four games due to right foot injury management, but he posted zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist across seven minutes Sunday in the Grizzlies' 131-115 loss to the Bucks.

  • Sam Merrill SG | CLE

    Cavaliers' Sam Merrill: Good to go Monday

    Merrill (hamstring) will play Monday against Memphis.

    Merrill will be back in action after sitting out the front end of this back-to-back set Sunday. With James Harden (personal) and Donovan Mitchell (ankle) out, Merrill is in line to see plenty of touches Monday.

  • Jahmai Mashack SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Jahmai Mashack: Ruled out with concussion

    Mashack is listed out for Monday's game against the Cavaliers with a concussion.

    Mashack is sidelined for a second consecutive contest while in the league's concussion protocol. With Memphis' injury report a mile long, extra ball-handling duties are open to Cam Spencer at point guard Monday.

  • Evan Mobley PF | CLE

    Cavaliers' Evan Mobley: Cleared to play

    Mobley (calf) is available for Monday's game against Memphis.

    After taking the night off Sunday against Indiana, Mobley is no longer on the injury report. He's likely going to see heavy usage Monday with so many Cavaliers sitting out for this contest.

  • Cedric Coward SG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Removed from injury report

    Coward (back) is available for Monday's game against Cleveland.

    After resting Sunday, Coward is ready to play in the second half of this back-to-back set. Across his last six appearances, the rookie first-rounder has averaged 13.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.2 steals in 26.0 minutes per game.

  • Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Good to go Monday

    Allen (knee) is available for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

    Allen is no longer on the injury report after sitting out the front end of this back-to-back set Sunday. He could see more usage Monday with several key players absent.

  • Cavaliers' Thomas Bryant: Will not play Monday

    Bryant (calf) is out for Monday's game against the Grizzlies.

    Bryant is likely getting a maintenance day for the second leg of this back-to-back set. During Sunday's 117-108 win over the Pacers, he finished with 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two assists and one block across 26 minutes.

  • Cam Spencer PG | MEM

    Grizzlies' Cam Spencer: Cleared from injury report

    Spencer (back) is available for Monday's game against Cleveland.

    Spencer is suiting up for the second leg of this back-to-back set. Over his last nine appearances (three starts), Spencer has averaged 9.8 points, 5.7 assists, 1.9 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 23.7 minutes per game.
