Memphis Grizzlies center Quinten Post is listed day-to-day with a concussion, up from out. The Grizzlies host the Nets tonight at 8:00 PM ET.
What happened
Post moved from out to day-to-day on the Saturday, Nov. 14 injury report, posted at 10:23 AM ET. The injury is listed as a concussion to the head. The report's comment reads that Post (concussion) was ruled out for Friday's game against New Orleans. The report lists Nov. 14 as his expected return date. His status has changed several times this month. He was out on Nov. 10 with a head issue, and the report moved him between out and day-to-day on Nov. 12. A day-to-day label does not say whether he will play tonight.
What it means for the Grizzlies
Memphis (8-4, sixth seed, one-game winning streak) faces the Nets tonight at 8:00 PM ET. Post is a reserve big. He has averaged 13.0 minutes, 5.0 points, 2.1 rebounds and 0.4 assists in 8 games. The Grizzlies are 6-2 with him and 2-2 without him. In those games without him, Cameron Boozer averaged 31.7 minutes and Ty Jerome 30.5. Zach Edey averaged 20.7 minutes, but Edey is day-to-day with a left ankle issue. Richie Saunders and Scotty Pippen Jr. are both out. That thins the frontcourt if Post sits.
What to watch
Watch for a final status on Post before tipoff tonight. The injury report lists Nov. 14 as his expected return, but he is only day-to-day, and the Grizzlies have not announced whether he will play against the Nets. Edey's ankle is the second thing to check, because the two bigs' availability decides how Memphis fills its frontcourt minutes. The next report after this game will show whether Post's status holds or changes.
