Coward (knee) will remain on the sidelined for Monday's matchup with the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Monday will mark Coward's fourth straight absence, and for now, he should be considered questionable at best for Wednesday's meeting with the Warriors. Walter Clayton, Cam Spencer and Olivier-Maxence Prosper will continue to pick up the slack in Coward's absence.

Coward (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Coward will miss a third consecutive game as he continues to recover from a hyperextended right knee. The rookie's absence further thins a Memphis backcourt that is already missing Ja Morant (elbow) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (finger). With Coward out again, Ty Jerome, Scotty Pippen and Cam Spencer should pick up most of the backcourt usage Saturday. Coward's next opportunity to play will arrive Monday against the Kings.

Coward (knee) won't play in Friday's game against the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Coward will miss his second consecutive contest due to a hyperextended right knee, and his next opportunity to suit up will come Saturday against Miami. With the rookie first-rounder joining Ja Morant (elbow), Scotty Pippen (toe), Ty Jerome (calf) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (finger) on the sidelines, Cam Spencer, Jahmai Mashack and Javon Small are candidates for increased playing time, especially if Walter Clayton (calf) is downgraded from doubtful to out.

Coward (knee) will miss the Rising Stars Game on Friday, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
The standout rookie will play it safe and sit out this exhibition. He missed the final game before the All-Star break, and it's unclear if his knee soreness will prevent him from suiting up Feb. 20 against the Jazz.

Coward (knee) is out for Wednesday's game versus the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Coward will sit out Memphis' final game before the All-Star break, giving him a full 10 days to rest his sore right knee. The Grizzlies return with a back-to-back out of the break, however, leaving his status for next Friday's matchup against Utah up in the air. For now, he should be considered questionable for that one. Expect more minutes for Cam Spencer and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Wednesday evening.

Coward (knee) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Denver.
EDGE Analysis
Coward picked up a right knee injury during Monday's game against the Warriors, and the issue is likely to prevent him from suiting up Wednesday. With Walter Clayton (calf) also doubtful, Cam Spencer, Javon Small and Jahmai Mashack could take on expanded roles.

Coward (knee) didn't return to Monday's game against Golden State. He finished the night with two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists in 12 minutes before exiting.
EDGE Analysis
The severity of Coward's injury is unclear at this time, as the team is simply calling it a right knee issue for now. He can be considered day-to-day until Memphis has more information to share on his availability going forward.

Coward is doubtful to return to Monday's game against the Warriors due to a right knee injury.
EDGE Analysis
Coward shook off a shoulder injury and was cleared to play Monday, but he's since suffered a knee injury. Scotty Pippen started the second half in his place, but Cam Spencer and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope should also factor into the mix in the second half if Coward is unable to return.

Coward (shoulder) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
The rookie first-rounder did not play in Saturday's loss to the Trail Blazers due to a shoulder injury. It appears Coward has been cleared to return Monday, which will likely lead to Jahmai Mashack reverting to a bench role. Coward has averaged 11.9 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.3 threes over 26.3 minutes per game over his last 10 outings.
