Ty Jerome sustained a right calf strain four minutes into the preseason finale against Miami and is set to be re-evaluated in four weeks. This leaves the Memphis Grizzlies’ backcourt thin, with Scotty Pippen Jr. also sidelined indefinitely and Ja Morant still on the recovery path. Rookie Javon Small may see increased playing time, but his fantasy appeal remains limited to deeper leagues.

Ty Jerome’s brief appearance in Friday’s preseason win over the Heat was cut short due to a calf injury. With Ja Morant sidelined and Scotty Pippen Jr. set for surgery, the Grizzlies may face the season’s start relying on relatively untested options. Javon Small and Cam Spencer could see rotation time at point guard, positioning them as potential streaming options for Wednesday’s opener against the Pelicans, although neither currently warrants a draft spot.
