Cam Spencer News, Rumors, Updates - Memphis Grizzlies | FOX Sports

Available vs. Philadelphia Spencer (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.

Impact Spencer could see some minutes off the bench due to the absences of players such as Vince Williams (ankle), Marcus Smart (illness) and John Konchar (illness). That said, he's not expected to see enough time to be a reliable fantasy alternative in any format.

Upgraded to questionable Spencer (ankle) has been upgraded to questionable for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.

Impact Spencer was given an estimated timetable of three weeks back on Nov. 1, so his potential return would provide a big boost to Memphis. Marcus Smart (illness) and John Konchar (illness) are doubtful Wednesday and Vince Williams (ankle) has been ruled out, so Spencer could see some rotation minutes if he gets the green light to play.

Out at least three more weeks The Grizzlies announced Friday that Spencer (ankle) will be re-evaluated in approximately three weeks.

Impact Spencer sustained a right ankle sprain during the Las Vegas Summer League and was on track to return for training camp before concurrently suffering a talar stress reaction. Given he's on a two-way deal, when he's cleared to suit up, he'll presumably report to the G League's Memphis Hustle to begin his NBA career.

Still weeks away from playing Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins said Monday that Spencer (ankle) is "still a couple weeks away" from being ready for game action, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appea...

Impact The rookie second-round pick sustained what was believed to be a minor ankle sprain during the Las Vegas Summer League, but he remained a limited participant at the start of training camp and never saw any preseason action. Spencer's NBA debut looks like it will be delayed until at least November, and because he's occupying one of the Grizzlies' three two-way slots, he'll presumably pick up his first minutes in the G League with the Memphis Hustle rather than the parent club.

Limited to start preseason Grizzlies general manager Zach Kleiman said Monday that Spencer recently suffered an ankle sprain and that he will miss the beginning of preseason.

Impact Spencer was shut down at the end of the Summer League with a minor ankle sprain, but it's unclear if this is related. A second-round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Spencer was already facing an uphill battle to crack the rotation prior to this injury.

Dealing with minor ankle sprain Spencer has been shut down for the remainder of Summer League due to a minor ankle sprain, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.

Impact Zach Edey (ankle) has also been shut down, but both rookies are expected to be 100 percent healthy for training camp. Spencer, a second-round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, was a sharpshooter in college at UConn but will have an uphill battle to make Memphis' initial roster as a rookie.

Shoots well from distance Spencer tallied 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal over 19 minutes in Monday's 97-95 loss to the Jazz in the Salt Lake City Summer League.

Impact Spencer played to his strengths in his first Summer League action, scoring nine of 11 points from beyond the arc. It's well known that the rookie out of UConn can knock down big shots, as he converted on 44.0 percent of his tries from three during his final collegiate season (40 games), so look for the guard to continue to fire from long distance during his transition to the next level. Spencer also showed upside on the glass Monday night by snagging three rebounds despite there being a shortage behind Zach Edey's 15-rebound performance.

Agrees to two-way deal Spencer signed a two-way contract with Memphis on Monday.

Impact Spencer was drafted with the No. 53 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft and has since put pen to paper on a two-way deal. This contract will allow him to continue his development and see regular playing time in the G League while also making him available to contribute at the NBA level as needed.
