Grizzlies' Marvin Bagley: Slides to second unit vs. Warriors
Rotowire
Bagley won't start in Tuesday's Play-In Game against the Warriors, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
The 26-year-old big man will retreat to the bench after receiving the starting nod in the club's regular-season finale against Dallas on Sunday due to Zach Edey (ankle) being sidelined. Bagley has logged a DNP in three of Memphis' last six outings, and over his last five appearances in the second unit, he has averaged 0.8 points and 1.2 rebounds across only 4.0 minutes per game.
Bagley notched 25 points (11-18 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Sunday's 132-97 win over Dallas.
Bagley made the most of the opportunity to feature Sunday and posted an excellent stat line. However, he's quite low in the pecking order in the rotation, so he's not likely to see a big role in the frontcourt once the playoffs begin. At least he'll be a depth option for any of the two frontcourt roles behind either Jaren Jackson or Zach Edey.

Grizzlies' Marvin Bagley: Starting Sunday
Rotowire
Bagley is in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the Mavericks on Sunday, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
Bagley has seen inconsistent playing time with the Grizzlies, but he'll make his first start for Memphis due to the absences of Zach Edey (ankle), Jaren Jackson (back) and Santi Aldama (ankle). Bagley is averaging 1.6 points and 1.5 rebounds across 6.2 minutes per game for the Grizzlies this season, though he should get an extended run in Sunday's regular-season finale.

Grizzlies' Marvin Bagley: Could return Saturday
Rotowire
Bagley (concussion) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Lakers.
Bagley has been sidelined for the Grizzlies' last two games due to a concussion, but his questionable tag indicates that he is progressing through the league's concussion protocol. He hasn't seen much playing time when healthy, so his return wouldn't impact the Grizzlies' frontcourt rotation.

Grizzlies' Marvin Bagley: Out with concussion
Rotowire
Bagley is out for Tuesday's game against Utah due to a concussion.
Bagley will need to sit out at least one game while in the concussion protocol, and he can be labeled day-to-day ahead of Thursday's matchup with Oklahoma City. The veteran big man has played a mere 7.0 minutes per game over seven appearances since joining Memphis, so his absence is unlikely to free up a noticeable number of minutes.
Grizzlies' Marvin Bagley: Makes debut in garbage time
Rotowire
Bagley (ankle) recorded no statistics while playing the final 1:31 of Thursday's 127-111 loss to the Pacers.
Bagley made his Grizzlies debut in garbage time, playing for the first time since Dec. 23 after he had been sidelined due to a right ankle distal syndesmosis sprain before the Wizards shipped him to Memphis ahead of the Feb. 6 trade deadline. So long as the Grizzlies have at least two or three of Jaren Jackson, Zach Edey, Brandon Clarke and Jay Huff available in the frontcourt, Bagley likely won't be in the mix for a rotation spot.

Grizzlies' Marvin Bagley: Cleared to play Thursday
Rotowire
Bagley (ankle) has been cleared to play Thursday against the Pacers, Jonah Dylan of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
Bagley will suit up for the first time since Dec. 23, after he had missed 21 straight games due to a right knee sprain before the Wizards traded him to the Grizzlies on Feb. 6. The Grizzlies had been listing Bagley's injury as a right ankle distal syndesmosis sprain since he joined the team, but the big man looks like he'll be good to go coming out of the All-Star break. Bagley isn't expected to be part of head coach Taylor Jenkins' rotation while Zach Edey, Brandon Clarke and Jaren Jackson are available to cover all the minutes at center.

Grizzlies' Marvin Bagley: Traded to Memphis
Rotowire
The Wizards traded Bagley (knee) to the Grizzlies on Thursday as part of the Marcus Smart trade, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
Bagley is currently sidelined by a right knee sprain and has missed 21 straight games. He hasn't been given an official timetable, but the Grizzlies should provide some clarity once he joins his new team. Once healthy, there's no guarantee that Bagley is able to crack the rotation in Memphis.

Bagley hasn't played since Dec. 26 and is set to miss his 21st straight contest due to a right knee sprain. Given that the Wizards haven't provided any indication that Bagley has resumed on-court work, the 25-year-old looks to be week-to-week rather than day-to-day at this stage.
