Cedric Coward Fantasy Stats

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Cedric Coward (knee) won't suit up for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The team has ruled him out after initially handing him a doubtful tag on the injury report. Memphis is set to have only eight players available for the contest, so players like Walter Clayton Jr., Jahmai Mashack, and Rayan Rupert should see plenty of time on the court. Coward could return to action on Tuesday for the second leg of a back-to-back against Philadelphia.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Cedric Coward (knee) has been cleared to play on Tuesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He has been battling a knee injury lately and was listed as questionable on the initial injury report. Coward last played on Feb. 9, missing seven contests. Cam Spencer and Walter Clayton Jr. will likely have smaller roles in the rotation with Coward back in the lineup. The 22-year-old has been a regular starter since mid-November, averaging 13.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 2.9 assists during his maiden campaign.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Cedric Coward (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 22-year-old rookie could return to the lineup after missing seven games with a right knee injury. Despite battling some consistency issues, Coward has had a good rookie campaign, averaging 13.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 2.9 assists across 26.3 minutes of play. If Coward is cleared for action, there could be fewer minutes available to Walter Clayton Jr. and Rayan Rupert.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Cedric Coward (knee) will remain sidelined for Friday's matchup against Dallas due to a sprained knee. The rookie wing is set to miss his sixth straight game, and Memphis has shown little urgency in rushing him back. Jaylen Wells should continue to see steady minutes after logging eight points, two rebounds, three assists, and two triples in 27 minutes last game. Walter Clayton Jr. should see minutes as well, but he is only a fringe streamer in deeper formats.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Cedric Coward (knee) will remain out for Monday's matchup against the Kings, extending his absence to four straight games due to a posterior capsule sprain in his right knee. With Coward sidelined, Walter Clayton Jr., Cam Spencer, and Olivier-Maxence Prosper should continue seeing elevated minutes. Clayton logged nine points, four rebounds, and six assists in 26 minutes last game, while Prosper added nine points, four rebounds, four assists, and four steals. All three remain fringe streamers, with limited upside unless Coward's absence stretches further.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Cedric Coward (knee) won't play on Friday versus Utah. The rookie has had a quality inaugural campaign, averaging 13.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 2.9 assists. He also hasn't missed many games. Unfortunately, Coward will be sidelined for a second-straight contest due to a hyperextended right knee. His next chance to get back on the floor will be on Saturday in Miami. With that said, Jahmai Mashack will likely remain in the starting lineup, with the 23-year-old averaging 8.5 points and 4.0 steals in two starts this season.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Cedric Coward (knee) and guard Walter Clayton Jr. (calf) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Denver, with Coward resting a sore right knee and Clayton sidelined by a right calf contusion. The short-handed backcourt opens minutes for Ty Jerome and Scotty Pippen Jr., who combined for 30 points and 11 assists in the last outing, while Cam Spencer and Jaylen Wells should see expanded roles. Jerome profiles as the top streamer, with Pippen a viable deep-league add until Memphis gets healthier.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Cedric Coward (knee) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He hurt his right knee in Monday's loss to Golden State, and the injury will likely keep Coward sidelined for at least one game. Coward has enjoyed a strong rookie campaign as a regular starter in Memphis, averaging 13.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 2.9 assists. Scotty Pippen Jr. and Taylor Hendricks are set to have more fantasy appeal with Coward on the shelf. The former replaced the 22-year-old in the starting lineup for the second half on Monday.

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Cedric Coward (shoulder) is not listed on the injury report for Monday against Golden State after missing Saturday, indicating he has been cleared to return. His availability likely sends Jahmai Mashack back to a reserve role after Mashack logged 30 minutes with 8 points, two three-pointers, one rebound, one assist, and six steals. Coward had been trending up before the injury and now looks like a long-term hold, especially with Memphis' season tilting toward development and Ja Morant (elbow) still sidelined. Usage and minutes should remain stable.

Memphis Grizzlies rookie guard Cedric Coward (ankle) is listed as available to play Friday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Coward has missed the previous two games with a left ankle sprain but is off the injury report and will return Friday. The rookie has been a lone bright spot for the Grizzlies this season, averaging 13.7 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 2.9 assists in just under 27 minutes per game. With Ja Morant (calf) and other key Memphis players ruled out Friday, Coward may have to step up despite missing the past two games. The ninth-overall pick should be in fantasy lineups tonight as the Grizzlies face a beat-up Thunder team.
