Memphis Grizzlies Injury Update: Huge Ja Morant Movement, Massive Cedric Coward Scare, Zach Edey's Status and More vs. Cavaliers (Nov. 15)

The Memphis Grizzlies and Cleveland Cavaliers lock horns in an interconference regular-season game on Saturday. The Grizzlies submitted a stacked injury report ahead of the contest, but Ja Morant was not listed. Morant, who missed the previous game with an ankle injury, was made available for the Cavaliers game as his status moved from out to available.

The Grizzlies superstar last suited up against the New York Knicks on Tuesday and delivered a below-average performance. He finished with 16 points on 4-of-14 shooting, including 2-of-6 from 3-point range. His 10 assists on the night came at the expense of eight costly turnovers.

Meanwhile, concerns grew about rookie Cedric Coward's health as he appeared on the injury report with right foot soreness. The skilled guard is listed as "doubtful" after playing in every Memphis game so far this season. He is averaging 14.3 points, 5.9 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game.

Zach Edey’s status took a significant turn, as the young center was upgraded to "questionable" with a left ankle issue. The 7-foot-3 former Purdue star now appears increasingly likely to make his season debut after sitting out the first 13 games.

Olivier-Maxence Prosper is listed as "questionable" due to left quad contusion. He was in action in the previous game against the Knicks, dropping a stat line of eight points, four rebounds and four assists.

Brandon Clarke (right knee surgery recovery), Ty Jerome (right calf strain), Scotty Pippen Jr. (left great toe surgery recovery) and Javon Small (left turf toe) are ruled out.
