Ty Jerome Out Indefinitely for Grizzlies with High-Grade Calf Strain
Ty Jerome (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Spurs as he continues to recover from a high-grade right calf strain suffered during the preseason. The Grizzlies have not provided a timetable for his return, classifying the 28-year-old guard as week-to-week. Jerome, who signed a three-year, $28 million contract with the Grizzlies in June 2025, was a key player for Virginia, leading them to the 2019 NCAA Tournament title and earning All-ACC Second Team honors. He led the ACC in assists and was seventh in steals during his junior year before being drafted 24th overall in 2019. With Jerome, Ja Morant (calf), and Javon Small (toe) all sidelined, Cam Spencer, Vince Williams, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, and Jahmai Mashack are all candidates for increased playing time in the Grizzlies' backcourt. His estimated return is November 24, 2025.
