Won't return Sunday Edey (ankle) will not return to Sunday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact Edey needed assistance to get to the locker room after rolling his ankle in the third quarter and was ruled out shortly after that. Edey will conclude Sunday's contest with seven points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and a steal in 14 minutes of action. Jay Huff will likely be the main beneficiary in Edey's absence, serving as the backup to Brandon Clarke.

Goes back to locker room Edey (ankle) was helped to the locker room in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Nuggers, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Edey limped to the locker room in the second quarter, but he was able to return for the start of the third quarter. However, he rolled his ankle in the third quarter and needed assistance back to the Grizzlies' locker room. If Edey is unable to return for the fourth quarter, Jay Huff will see an uptick in playing time off the bench.

Returns to game Sunday Edey returned to Sunday's game against the Nuggets, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.

Impact Edey left the game in the second quarter and limped back to the locker room, but he returned to the game in the third quarter. It remains unclear what Edey was dealing with, but his return to action indicates it should not be much of a concern going forward.

Heads to locker room Sunday Edey went to the locker Sunday with an undisclosed injury, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Edey left the game midway through the second quarter and went back to the locker room with an apparent limp. The injury remains unclear at this point, so his return is questionable. If he cannot return, Jay Huff will likely see more minutes at center.

Slides back to bench Sunday Aldama is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Nuggets, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact With Desmond Bane (oblique) having made his return to game action in Friday's loss to Golden State, he will now replace Aldama in the starting five. The 23-year-old forward has carved out a significant role with the Grizzlies, and he has averaged 12.3 points, 7.2 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 0.8 steals across 29.0 minutes per game in 13 regular-season outings (11 starts).

Moving back into starting lineup Bane will start Sunday's game against the Nuggets, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Bane made his return Friday following a seven-game absence due to an oblique injury, but he operated off the bench, recording 18 points, six rebounds, two assists and two steals in 27 minutes during a loss to Golden State. Santi Aldama will shift to the bench as a corresponding move.

Won't play Sunday Smart (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact Smart has been a mainstay on the injury report this year and will miss another matchup due to an illness. The 30-year-old has struggled to begin the 2024-25 campaign, during which he has appeared in seven regular season-outings and averaged 7.4 points, 3.7 assists and 2.6 rebounds while shooting only 30.0 percent from the field across 20.1 minutes per game. With Smart out and Ja Morant (hip) already ruled out, Scotty Pippen and Jaylen Wells should start in the backcourt, and Luke Kennard will see an uptick in minutes off the bench.

Remains week-to-week Coach Taylor Jenkins said Sunday that Morant (hip) remains week-to-week and will undergo more imaging Monday, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Morant will miss a fifth straight game Sunday night, and he doesn't appear close to making a return. The fact the medical team is still trying to figure out the extent of the injury is a bit worrisome, but Jenkins didn't sound concerned. Marcus Smart (illness) and Desmond Bane have recently returned to action following lengthy injury absences, but Jaylen Wells and Scotty Pippen continue to start in Memphis' backcourt.
