Quinten Post is day-to-day with a head injury and is doubtful to return to Monday's game at Toronto. The Grizzlies are 6-3 and have lost three straight, and they are also missing Isaiah Stewart, Richie Saunders and Scotty Pippen Jr.
What happened
Quinten Post was listed as day-to-day with a head injury on the injury report posted Monday at 8:21 PM ET. The report's comment says Post is doubtful to return to Monday's game against Toronto due to a head injury. The Grizzlies tipped off at the Raptors at 7:30 PM ET, so the problem came up during the game. The report lists no previous status for this injury. Post had been day-to-day with a right ankle and leg issue earlier this month and was cleared on Wednesday, Nov. 4. No further detail on the head injury has been announced.
What it means for the Grizzlies
Memphis has to finish at Toronto without its backup center. The Grizzlies are 6-3, seventh in the standings, and have lost three in a row. Post has played in seven games this season and averages 14.5 minutes, 5.7 points, 2.3 rebounds and 0.4 assists. Memphis is 5-2 with him and 1-1 without him. In the games he missed, the minutes went to Cameron Boozer (32.1), Ty Jerome (30.4), Cedric Coward (28.5), Jaylen Wells (27.0), Jerami Grant (24.1), Zach Edey (20.5), Javon Small (20.4) and Cam Spencer (19.7). Stewart, Saunders and Pippen Jr. are all out.
What to watch
The next injury report will show whether Post's status changes after Monday's game. No return date has been announced. The report calls him doubtful to return to the Toronto game, so the focus is on how he feels in the next few days and whether he is listed for Memphis's next game. Watch whether Edey's minutes rise if Post is out. The depth chart is already thin with Stewart, Saunders and Pippen Jr. out.
