Clarke (calf) is available for Friday's game against the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Clarke has missed Memphis' past two games due to a calf issue, but he's good to go Friday. With Zach Edey (concussion) back in the mix as well, however, Clarke will likely have to share reserve frontcourt minutes with Jay Huff off the Grizzlies' bench.

Clarke (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Clarke appears to be working through right knee soreness following the Grizzlies' 132-124 win over the Pelicans on Friday, during which he logged three points, four rebounds, two blocks and two steals over 19 minutes. Jay Huff would serve as the Grizzlies' backup center behind rookie Zach Edey if Clarke is unable to play Sunday.

Clarke finished Friday's 132-124 victory over the Pelicans with three points (0-1 FG, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, two blocks and two steals across 19 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Clarke continued his role off the bench, with Zach Edey now locked in as the starting center. Although he was nearly non-existent when it came to scoring the basketball, Clarke managed to record four defensive stats. He could struggle to play more than 20 minutes per game moving forward, which could limit his production, especially on the offensive end of the floor.

Clarke notched 18 points (9-11 FG), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals over 26 minutes during Saturday's 127-121 win over the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
