Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Drops team-high 24 points
Coward contributed 24 points (10-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and four steals across 24 minutes during Saturday's 125-124 victory over Chicago.
Coward delivered on both ends of the floor, recording a career-high four steals while also scoring at least 20 points for just the sixth time. Although his playing time continues to be slightly underwhelming, he has now suited up in three straight games. The fact that a missed game could be just around the corner is worrying, but for now, he should be held in most leagues.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Limited to 12 points
Coward (personal) totaled 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four assists and one rebound across 27 minutes during Wednesday's 123-98 loss to the Spurs.
Making his return from a three-game absence due to a personal issue, Coward saw his most minutes since Feb. 2, as the Grizzlies have been gradually ramping him back up after he had previously been sidelined for about three weeks while recovering from a right knee sprain. Coward has scored in double figures in six of his seven appearances since the beginning of March, averaging 13.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.6 triples per game in that span.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Absent from injury report
Coward (personal) is off the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Spurs.
Following a three-game absence for personal reasons, the rookie first-rounder will rejoin the Grizzlies for Wednesday's action. Coward has averaged 13.7 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 three-pointers in 23.2 minutes per contest over his last six games.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Ruled out for Monday
Coward (personal) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Hawks.
Coward will miss a third consecutive contest for personal reasons, and his next opportunity to play will come Wednesday against the Spurs. With the rookie first-rounder remaining sidelined, Javon Small, Walter Clayton and DeJon Jarreau are candidates to see increased minutes.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Missing Saturday's game
Coward (personal) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Charlotte.
Coward will miss both games of the Grizzlies' back-to-back set while attending to a personal matter, and his next opportunity to play is Monday against the Hawks. Javon Small figures to stay in Memphis' starting lineup due to Coward's absence.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Won't play Friday
Coward is out for Friday's game versus Boston due to personal reasons, Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe reports.
Coward was a late addition to the injury report Friday, and he'll need to step away from the team for at least one contest. The rookie swingman faces a quick turnaround if he wants to rejoin the Grizzlies on Saturday, when they take on the Hornets in Charlotte. His absence Friday vacates a spot in the starting lineup likely for either Walter Clayton or Javon Small to fill.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Questionable for Friday
Coward is questionable to play Friday versus the Celtics due to personal reasons.
If Coward sits out Friday's game, Rayan Rupert could get a start and there would be more minutes available for Walter Clayton. Check back for official word on Coward closer to tipoff.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Scores 15 despite shooting woes
Coward recorded 15 points (4-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 125-118 win over the Nuggets.
Coward needed 12 shots to score 15 points and missed all four of his three-pointers, but he still delivered a decent stat line. This was the fourth time in six appearances in which Coward scored at least 15 points. The rookie out of Washington State has been limited to just six outings since the All-Star break due to a knee injury. While his availability needs to be checked regularly, he's proven to be consistent when available. He's averaging 13.7 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game in those six outings.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Good to go Friday
Coward (knee) is available for Friday's game against Detroit.
Coward is no longer on the injury report after missing the front end of this back-to-back set. Look for the rookie to play a modest workload as the Grizzlies continue to evaluate several fringe rotation players.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Ruled out for Thursday
Coward (knee) won't play Thursday against the Mavs.
Coward will sit out Thursday's game, with it being the first of a back-to-back set, but he should return for Friday's meeting with the Pistons. With Coward unavailable, Jahmai Mashack, Javon Small and Rayan Rupert should see an uptick in minutes.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Doubtful for Thursday
Coward is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against Dallas due to right knee injury management.
Coward is likely to be held out of the opening leg of the Grizzlies' back-to-back set for rest purposes. With several of Coward's teammates also listed as out or doubtful, Memphis could be forced to lean on Javon Small, Cam Spencer (back), Jahmai Mashack and Rayan Rupert in the backcourt.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Double-doubles in return
Coward logged 13 points (4-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 16 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 24 minutes during the Grizzlies' 139-129 loss to the 76ers on Tuesday.
Coward was back in action Tuesday after missing Monday's loss to the Nets due to a lingering knee injury. He was moved back into the starting lineup and made an impact on the boards, tying a career high in rebounds (including seven on offense). Coward will continue to have his minutes monitored while managing his knee injury, but he's been productive even with limited run time.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Back in starting five
Coward is in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the 76ers on Tuesday.
Coward was cleared to play Tuesday after missing Monday's loss against the Nets due to a knee injury, and the rookie first-rounder will start for Memphis in his return. In his last outing against the Clippers on Saturday, Coward played 22 minutes and finished with 15 points, seven rebounds, one block and two three-pointers (on eight attempts).

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Omitted from injury report
Coward (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the 76ers.
Coward didn't play in Monday's loss in Brooklyn, but he'll be back in action for the second half of Memphis' back-to-back set. He's appeared in only three games since Feb. 6, coming off the bench in his past two outings. With Scotty Pippen (toe) out and Walter Clayton (ankle) questionable, Coward may slide back into the starting lineup for the first time since Feb. 9, but he'll likely still be under a minutes restriction.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Officially out
Coward (knee) won't play Monday against the Nets.
Coward was downgraded to doubtful ahead of Monday's matchup, so the fact that he's been ruled out isn't much of a surprise. This should open up plenty of opportunities for Walter Clayton, Jahmai Mashack and Cam Spencer in the backcourt.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Unlikely to play Monday
Coward is doubtful for Monday's game against the Nets due to right knee injury management.
Coward has appeared in two of the team's last three games, but he appears set to miss Monday's contest as he continues to nurse a knee injury. If he is officially ruled out, more minutes will be available for Walter Clayton, Jahmai Mashack and Cam Spencer.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Not listed on injury report
Coward (knee) isn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Clippers.
The rookie first-rounder missed Wednesday's loss to Portland -- the second leg of a back-to-back -- due to right knee injury management. However, he's set to return Saturday. His return to the lineup will leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Jahmai Mashack, Javon Small and Rayan Rupert. Coward has appeared in just one outing since the All-Star break, posting 15 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 21 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's loss to Minnesota.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Won't play Wednesday
Coward (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Coward will hit the sidelines for the second leg of this back-to-back set, but he should be able to get back out there for Saturday's meeting with the Clippers. With Coward out, expect more minutes for Walter Clayton, Jahmai Mashack and Cam Spencer.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Doubtful for Wednesday
Coward (knee) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Portland.
As expected, the Grizzlies are planning to hold Coward out for maintenance for the second leg of this back-to-back set. The rookie returned from a seven-game absence Tuesday against the Timberwolves and finished with 15 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 21 minutes.

Grizzlies' Cedric Coward: Fares well off bench
Coward (knee) finished with 15 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 117-110 loss to the Timberwolves.
Back in action after a seven-game absence due to a right knee posterior capsule sprain, Coward was deployed off the bench and had his minutes managed, but he made the most of his time on the court. The Grizzlies have been cautious with all their key players coming off of injuries, so Coward could be a candidate to sit out Wednesday against the Trail Blazers in the second leg of a back-to-back set.
