Injury Report: Memphis Grizzlies vs LA Clippers

The Memphis Grizzlies should have the advantage in this one

After suffering a very unexpected loss against the LA Clippers on Wednesday night, the Memphis Grizzlies should have the major advantage in this one.

On Wednesday night, it was a battle between two shorthanded teams. The Grizzlies were missing Steven Adams, Brandon Clarke, Jaren Jackson Jr., Desmond Bane, and Tyus Jones. The Clippers were missing Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, and Marcus Morris. Somehow, the Clippers survived with some tremendous shooting between Russell Westbrook and Robert Covington, who both shot a combined 12/12 from the three-point line. It's hard to believe that'll happen again, especially with the Grizzlies having more players available.

Jaren Jackson Jr., Desmond Bane, and Tyus Jones are all returning for the Grizzlies tonight. Steven Adams is out with a right knee PCL strain, Brandon Clarke is out with a left Achilles tear, Jake LaRavia is out on a G League assignment, Kenneth Lofton Jr. is out on a G League two-way, Vince Williams Jr. is out on a G League two-way, and Ziaire Williams is out with right foot ankle soreness. John Konchar was unexpectedly listed as questionable this morning.

For the Clippers, Kawhi Leonard has been upgraded to questionable due to personal reasons. He was seen at shootaround, so there's a decent chance he may play. Paul George remains out with a right knee sprain, Marcus Morris is out due to health and safety protocols, and Brandon Boston Jr. is out with a tailbone contusion.

The Grizzlies don't have too much on the line tonight, other than pride. The Clippers have already beaten them 2-0, and don't want to get swept tonight. Look to see Dillon Brooks and Russell Westbrook engage in some trash talk after what happened last night. Tonight should be a fun one.
