Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Won't go Wednesday
Rotowire
Wells is out for Wednesday's game against San Antonio due to right big toe soreness.
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.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Exits early Monday
Rotowire
Wells exited Monday's 146-107 loss to the Hawks with 10:23 remaining in the fourth quarter due to right foot soreness and was unable to return. He finished with four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes.
Shortly after Wells' departure, the Grizzlies labeled him doubtful to return, and he unsurprisingly never checked back in while the game had already descended into garbage time. 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 could all be candidates to absorb some of his minutes.

Grizzlies' Jaylen Wells: Iffy for Friday
Rotowire
Wells is questionable for Friday's game against the Pistons with a right shoulder contusion.
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.

Wells scored an empty 12 points amid what has been a nice stretch of offensive production. In four games over the past two weeks, he has put up 16.8 points, 1.3 steals and 2.0 three-pointers across 26.0 minutes per game. Although his overall ceiling is relatively limited, he definitely deserves some attention for anyone seeking points and threes.
