Memphis Grizzlies forward Taylor Hendricks (thumb) will skip Monday's contest against the Brooklyn Nets. He landed on the injury report with a sore right thumb and was initially listed as doubtful.

Utah Jazz forward Taylor Hendricks (hamstring) will play on Tuesday against the Lakers after missing the last four games because of a hamstring injury. The 21-year-old is having the worst season of his career, averaging 4.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 23.5% shooting from behind the arc. Of course, that kind of production won't earn him much trust from fantasy managers. With Kyle Filipowski (wrist) out, Hendricks may see more scoring opportunities. However, it likely won't be much of an improvement from his current statistical contributions.

Hendricks, the ninth pick of the 2023 draft, has opened the campaign as a starter. He has averaged 4.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.3 blocks, and 1.7 steals.
