Memphis Grizzlies vs Denver Nuggets Injury Report Revealed

The Memphis Grizzlies will be incredibly shorthanded

The Memphis Grizzlies face off against the reigning champion Denver Nuggets which will be incredibly difficult for Memphis. Somehow, the Grizzlies have even more players on their injury report than they did last game against the Pelicans.

The Grizzlies have a very deep list of players on their injury report: Steven Adams, Santi Aldama, Brandon Clarke, Luke Kennard, and Ja Morant. Steven Adams is out due to a PCL strain in his right knee, Santi Aldama is out due to a right ankle sprain, Brandon Clarke is out due to tendon repair in his left Achilles, Luke Kennard is out due to concussion protocol, and Ja Morant is out due to a league suspension. Luke Kennard suffered his injury last game, so he's the latest on this giant list.

The Denver Nuggets only have two players currently listed on their injury report: Vlatko Cancar and Jay Huff. Vlatko Cancar is out due to left knee surgery, and Jay Huff is out due to a right rib fracture. Neither Cancar nor Huff are members of the starting lineup, and the Nuggets will have essentially their full squad available for this game.

Tonight is going to be an incredibly uphill battle for the Memphis Grizzlies. If they were shorthanded last game against the New Orleans Pelicans, they're going to be even more shorthanded tonight, but against the defending NBA Champions.

The Memphis Grizzlies and Denver Nuggets tipoff at 7:00 p.m. EST.
