Grizzlies Rule Out Brandon Clarke for Rest of Season After Knee Injury

The Memphis forward's high-grade PCL sprain leaves the team shorthanded as they battle to maintain playoff positioning in the Western Conference.

Brandon Clarke has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2025 NBA season due to a high-grade PCL sprain in his right knee, sustained during a game against the Portland Trail Blazers on March 19.
The Memphis Grizzlies confirmed the injury on March 22 and stated that a detailed recovery timeline will be provided after determining a treatment plan.
Clarke has appeared in 64 games this season, averaging 8.3 points and 5.1 rebounds over 18.9 minutes per game, making him a key contributor off the bench.
The team has dropped to fifth place in the Western Conference standings following a three-game losing streak and is relying on younger players like Zach Edey and Santi Aldama to fill the gap left by Clarke's absence.
The Grizzlies are currently on a five-game road trip, with upcoming games against the Utah Jazz and Oklahoma City Thunder as they aim to solidify their playoff position.
