Conley (Achilles) contributed 15 points (6-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt), 10 assists, and one rebound in 27 minutes during the Grizzlies' 101-99 win against the Pelicans on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Conley showed no signs of being slowed by an Achilles injury that sidelined him for the past six games. He did not turn the ball over, and notched his first double-double since Dec. 14 versus the Wizards. Meanwhile, Mario Chalmers scored three points and dished five assists in 21 minutes off the bench.

Conley (Achilles) has been cleared to start at point guard for Monday's game against the Pelicans, Rob Fischer of FOX Sports Southeast reports.
EDGE Analysis
After making it through pregame warmups without any apparent setbacks to his ailing left Achilles' tendon, Conley will make his return from a six-game absence. However, because Conley's status for Monday's game was in serious question entering the day, it seems quite likely that he'll face limited minutes in his return to action. If that's the case, backup point guard Mario Chalmers could still see plenty of playing time, but it shouldn't be long before Conley regularly surpasses 30 minutes on a regular basis.

The Grizzlies are "hoping" that Conley (Achilles) will be able to play Monday against the Pelicans, Ronald Tillery of the Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Conley, who has missed the Grizzlies' last six games with a sore left Achilles, is officially being listed as a game-time decision for Monday's tilt. He's expected to go through pregame warmups before being reevaluated, and an announcement on his availability or lack thereof should come shortly before the game's 1:30 ET tip off. Even if Conley is available, there's a high probability he could come off the bench and face a minutes restriction, so he's not a recommended DFS play for the Monday slate.

Conley (Achilles) will be a game-time decision for Monday's matchup with the Pelicans, Chris Herrington of the Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Conley will likely participate in pregame warmups before making a decision on whether or not to play, meaning an official decision should come within the next hour. He has missed six straight games with a sore left Achilles, giving Mario Chalmers a boost in minutes as he has taken over the starting point guard duties.

Conley (Achilles) is considered questionable to play Monday against the Pelicans, Ronald Tillery of The Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Conley has missed the previous six games while dealing with a sore left Achilles and Monday will be the third time his status has been elevated to questionable ahead of the game. Mario Chalmers has seen extended opportunities during that time, and that could linger even beyond Conley's eventual return since the team may elect to ease him back into action.

Conley (Achilles) will not play Saturday against New York, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Conley had been expected to miss Saturday's contest against the Knicks due to an Achilles injury, and now it has been made official. He met with a specialist Thursday to examine the injury, but there is still no concrete timetable set for a return. Mario Chalmers figures to make another start in his place Saturday. Conley's next chance to play will be Monday against New Orleans.

Conley (Achilles) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Knicks, Ronald Tillery of the Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Although the team contends that Conley's Achilles injury will not sideline him long-term, he continues to miss time and is now in line to miss his sixth straight game after missing Friday's practice. He is considered day-to-day, but if he's unable to play against the Knicks, look for Mario Chalmers to draw another start for the Grizzlies.

Conley (Achilles) sat out of practice Friday and remains without a concrete timetable for a return, Peter Fleischer of Fox Sports Memphis reports.
EDGE Analysis
Conley met with a doctor Thursday night, but nothing has been reported indicating any sort of timetable for a return. He was seen walking without a boot on his foot Friday, which seems to indicate his situation is improving. He'll remain day-to-day moving forward, but it doesn't seem likely that he'll be ready to return come Saturday's game against the Knicks.
