The Grizzlies announced Tuesday that Wells (toe) underwent a successful procedure to stabilize his right great toe and will miss the remainder of the 2025-26 campaign.
EDGE Analysis
Wells won't return this season after undergoing a procedure to repair a tendon avulsion fracture, though he is expected to make a full recovery ahead of the 2026-27 campaign. The 22-year-old appeared in 69 regular-season games in his sophomore season, starting all of them and finishing with averages of 12.5 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.1 blocks and 0.9 steals while shooting 43.1 percent from the field and 35.3 percent from deep across 26.4 minutes per contest.

Wells has been diagnosed with a tendon avulsion fracture in his right great toe and will undergo a procedure for stabilization purposes.
EDGE Analysis
The Grizzlies will likely update Wells' timetable after he undergoes the toe procedure, but with just a little over two weeks left in the regular season, this will almost assuredly end Wells' 2025-26 campaign. Rayan Rupert, DeJon Jarreau and Jahmai Mashack will help fill the void in Wells' absence.

Wells (toe) won't play in Monday's game against Phoenix.
EDGE Analysis
Wells will miss his fourth consecutive contest. At this point, it's hard to determine if he will be available before the end of the campaign. With the Grizzlies rolling out a lengthy injury report heading into Monday's game, Cedric Coward and GG Jackson are currently the favorites to take on a large portion of the load on the offensive end.

Wells is out for Friday's game against the Rockets due to right toe soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Wells is shelved for a second consecutive contest with the issue. Cedric Coward and Cam Spencer have a clearer pathway to minutes at small forward Friday. Wells' next chance to play come Saturday when the Grizzlies face the Bulls.

Wells is out for Wednesday's game against San Antonio due to right big toe soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Wells departed Monday's game against the Hawks with a foot injury, but the soreness is apparently isolated to his big toe. Regardless, Wells won't be able to suit up Wednesday as a result of the injury. He's one of nine players listed as out or doubtful for Wednesday's contest, leaving plenty minutes to go around for whomever Memphis clears to play against the Spurs.

Wells exited Monday's 146-107 loss to the Hawks in the fourth quarter due to a foot injury and was deemed doubtful to return, though he never checked back in. He finished with four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Wells checked out of Monday's blowout loss with 10:23 remaining in the final quarter, and his status will be worth monitoring ahead of Wednesday's game against the Spurs. If the second-year wing is forced to miss time, Rayan Rupert, DeJon Jarreau and Tyler Burton would be candidates for increased minutes.

Wells (shoulder) is available for Monday's game against the Bulls.
EDGE Analysis

Wells (shoulder) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Wells will miss his second game of the season and his first since Feb. 7 due to a right shoulder contusion. His next opportunity to play will come Monday in Chicago. In the second-year swingman's stead, Cam Spencer, Jahmai Mashack and Tyler Burton are candidates to see increased minutes.

Wells is questionable for Friday's game against the Pistons with a right shoulder contusion.
EDGE Analysis
Friday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so there's a good chance Wells receives a maintenance day. He looked sharp in Thursday's loss to Dallas with 23 points (7-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 32 minutes.
