Grizzlies' Ty Jerome: Sidelined for at least four weeks
Rotowire
The Grizzlies announced Monday that Jerome (calf) will be re-evaluated in four weeks.
Jerome has been diagnosed with a high-grade calf strain, which will delay the start of his season. The 28-year-old guard will likely be sidelined until at least mid-November. With Scotty Pippen (toe) also beginning the year injured, it looks like the backup point guard job will belong to either Javon Small or Cam Spencer early on.

Rotowire
Jerome (calf) will be further evaluated this weekend, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports.
Jerome sustained a right calf injury during Friday's preseason matchup against the Heat and exited after logging just four minutes. The guard, who signed a three-year deal with the Grizzlies this offseason, will have his health closely monitored heading into the regular season, given Ja Morant (ankle) is still ramping up and Scotty Pippen (toe) is sidelined for three months.

Grizzlies' Ty Jerome: Suiting up Friday
Rotowire
Head coach Tuomas Iisalo said Jerome will be ramped up in Friday's preseason game against the Heat, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports.
Jerome is set to return to action after sitting out Wednesday's loss to the Hornets and will start at point guard, with Ja Morant (ankle) and Scotty Pippen (toe) unavailable. The 28-year-old is coming off a career-best year with Cleveland, during which he averaged 12.5 points, 3.4 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals across 19.9 minutes per game in 70 regular-season outings (three starts).

Grizzlies' Ty Jerome: Absent from starting lineup
Rotowire
Jerome is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's preseason game against the Hornets, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.
Javon Small will instead get the nod as the starting point guard Wednesday. It's unclear whether this is a maintenance day for Jerome, who's certainly ahead of Small on the depth chart, or if the Grizzlies simply want to take a look at a different starting unit.
Jerome (rest) will be in the starting lineup for Saturday's preseason game against the Hawks.
After missing Wednesday's preseason game against the Celtics for rest purposes, Jerome will be in the first unit. The last time he was on the floor for Memphis, Jerome finished with 16 points, four rebounds, three assists and two steals across 19 minutes in the preseason matchup against the Pistons on Monday.

Jerome (rest) will play in Saturday's preseason game against the Hawks, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
Jerome didn't play Wednesday against the Celtics, but he'll return to the court in this matchup. Jerome figures to see steady minutes off the bench for the Grizzlies while potentially starting when Ja Morant (ankle) isn't available, which will be the case for this contest.
