Kennard is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Boston.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard is joined by Jacob Gilyard in the backcourt on a night when Memphis will only carry eight healthy players. GG Jackson, David Roddy and Trey Jemison round out the starting five.

Kennard (knee) played 18 minutes and recorded six points (2-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists Friday in the Grizzlies' 121-101 loss to the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Though he had started in each of his last nine appearances, Kennard came off the bench Friday in his return from a three-game absence due to left knee soreness. Two-way player Jacob Gilyard ended up making a start out of the backcourt, but Kennard should eventually displace him in the top unit once he fully ramps back up from the recent absence. Kennard will likely have his minutes watched closely over the next came or two, but once he's free of restrictions, he should have a pathway to a meaningful role on a Grizzlies squad that's been decimated by injuries. Ja Morant (shoulder) is done for the season, and fellow guards Marcus Smart (finger) and Desmond Bane (ankle) appear unlikely to return to action until after the All-Star break.

Kennard (knee) has been cleared to play in Friday's game against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard has the green light to return from a three-game absence, but he'll come off the bench. Coach Taylor Jenkins said he will monitor Kennard's minutes, but he didn't give any specifics.

Kennard (knee), who's officially listed as questionable, is expected to play Friday against the Warriors, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.

EDGE Analysis

While Kennard will likely return following a three-game absence, the sharpshooter's minutes will be monitored closely. With the Grizzlies shorthanded, Kennard has started each of his last nine appearances, averaging 13.9 points, 4.6 assists and 3.6 rebounds in 29.4 minutes per game.

Kennard (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard missed his third straight game Thursday but has a chance to return for the second half of Memphis' back-to-back set Friday. If he's cleared, the sharpshooter should be a focal point for the depleted Grizzlies, but if he remains out, Jacob Gilyard, Scotty Pippen, David Roddy and John Konchar would all be candidates for increased roles again.

Kennard (knee) will not play Thursday against the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

No surprise here, as Kennard was previously considered doubtful. Jacob Gilyard, Scotty Pippen and David Roddy are candidates to see increased opportunities Thursday. Kennard should be considered questionable at best for Friday's game against the Warriors.

Kennard (knee) is doubtful for Thursday's game against the Cavaliers.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard has missed three of the last four games due to left knee soreness, and he'll likely be unavailable once again Thursday. Assuming he's sidelined, Jacob Gilyard, Scotty Pippen and David Roddy could see increased roles.

Kennard (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard will be sidelined for the third time over Memphis' last four contests due to a sore left knee, joining a long list of inactives. Jacob Gilyard, Scotty Pippen and David Roddy are candidates for elevated usage, especially if Vince Williams (knee), John Konchar (ankle) and Ziaire Williams (hand) are all downgraded to out. Kennard's next chance to suit up will come Thursday versus Cleveland.

Kennard has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Pacers due to left knee soreness.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard will miss his second out of Memphis' last three contests Sunday due to a sore left knee. Jacob Gilyard will likely receive increased minutes in his absence. Kennard's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Sacramento.

Kennard (thigh) isn't on the injury report for Friday's game against the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

Kennard was a late scratch for Wednesday's matchup against Miami due to thigh soreness, but he should be back in action two days later. He's started in his last eight appearances, averaging 13.8 points, 4.4 assists and 3.4 rebounds in 29.4 minutes per game.
