Jerome injured his right calf four minutes into Friday’s preseason finale against the Heat. According to the Grizzlies, the guard has been diagnosed with a high-grade calf strain and will be re-evaluated in four weeks. With Scotty Pippen Jr. (toe) out indefinitely and Ja Morant (ankle) working his way back after missing the entire preseason, rotation minutes may be available to rookie Javon Small. While solid during the preseason, Small is a deep-league streamer at best.

Jerome, who missed both shot attempts, injured his calf four minutes into Friday’s preseason finale. The Grizzlies were already without Ja Morant (ankle), and it was announced on Saturday that Scotty Pippen Jr. will undergo surgery to address a toe injury. If Jerome misses time and Morant remains out, the Grizzlies may begin the regular season with a point guard rotation of Javon Small and Cam Spencer. There’s no need to draft either one, but both should be on your streaming radars ahead of Wednesday’s opener against New Orleans.

The Grizzlies announced on Monday that Ja Morant was week-to-week with a sprained ankle. It’s possible that Memphis will begin the regular season without its starting point guard. Scotty Pippen Jr. emerged as a valuable streaming option last season, and Jerome could do the same in 2025-26 due to Morant’s injury history. In his first preseason game since signing with Memphis in free agency, Jerome started and was productive as a scorer and playmaker in his 19 minutes. Pippen played 20 minutes off the bench, finishing with 13 points, two rebounds, three assists, one steal and one three-pointer. Whichever guard wins that competition during the preseason will be worth having, especially in deeper leagues. And if Morant is not ready for the regular season, both will have value, similar to Indiana’s guard tandem of Andrew Nembhard and T.J. McConnell.

Jerome saw extensive action for the Cavaliers last season. The 27-year-old point guard appeared in a career-high 70 games averaging 19.9 minutes per game. Jerome averaged 12.5 points per game, 3.4 assists per game and shot a career-best 43 percent from behind the three-point line. While Jerome struggled in the playoffs, his signing is one of the best values of free agency so far. If Ja Morant continues to struggle with injuries, Jerome has paths to real fantasy value in 2025-26.

Jerome was one of the best sixth men in the NBA this season, and the continued absence of Darius Garland (toe) means the Cavaliers need more production from him. However, he was inefficient in Game 1, shooting 40 percent from the field on 20 attempts. Among the Cavaliers who saw action, only Donovan Mitchell (30) had more attempts from Jerome. While Jerome’s ability to provide production off the bench will be critical in this series, the Cavaliers must share the wealth better than they did in Game 1.

This was the first postseason series of Jerome’s career, and it couldn’t have gone much better. He’s still never lost a playoff game, and he averaged 16.3 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 2.5 triples per game in this series. Jerome will continue to provide them with excellent depth, though if Darius Garland (toe) is back for Game 1 of the second round, Jerome may not be as productive, since he will likely lose out on minutes.

Despite the Cavaliers not having Darius Garland (toe), Jerome remained in a reserve role for Game 3. However, that did not prevent him from recording a career-high assist total and a double-double. With his play throughout the regular season and in this series, Jerome has likely secured himself a substantial contract in unrestricted free agency this summer. First and foremost is the need to take care of this series, with Game 4 scheduled for Monday.

On the day he was named a finalist for the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year award, Jerome showed why he was deserving of that distinction. Playing in his first playoff game, the Cavaliers guard finished with the fourth-most points scored off the bench in a postseason debut since 1971. Defending Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland was challenging enough for Miami; Jerome’s play was essentially the knockout blow in Game 1, scoring 16 points in the fourth quarter. He’ll look to build on this performance when the Cavaliers host Game 2 on Wednesday.

Sunday’s game was the first for Jerome since March 25, as a knee injury sidelined him for five games. The Cavaliers’ reserve guard showed no signs of rust against the Kings and has scored 20 points or more in 12 games this season. That’s double Jerome’s total in the first five seasons of his NBA career. While the mainstream conversation regarding the Most Improved Player award has focused on Cade Cunningham, Jerome is one of the under-discussed players whose name should come up more.

Jerome is back after a five-game absence, and his return gives Cleveland’s bench a welcome boost. His return means Craig Porter Jr.'s playing time will decrease, and he may fall out of the rotation entirely.

Jerome has missed Cleveland’s last five games and Wade the last two. The former’s availability is more impactful on fantasy basketball, as Jerome has provided 11th-round value in nine-cat formats this season. Multiple rotation players, including De’Andre Hunter, Isaac Okoro and Sam Merrill, are impacted by Jerome and Wade’s availability.

This will be a fifth-straight absence for Jerome, while Wade will miss his second in a row. De’Andre Hunter, Isaac Okoro and Sam Merrill will once again fill out the majority of the reserve minutes. Hunter is the best fantasy option, though Merrill should provide some three-point value.

Jerome will miss another game with a knee injury, opening up additional minutes for Craig Porter Jr. With both Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland available, Porter is not a player who has to be streamed in most leagues.

Jerome is likely to sit out another game, which means Craig Porter Jr. could see an uptick in playing time. CPJ isn’t a recommended streaming option, though.

Tyson is not usually in the Cavaliers’ rotation when he is healthy, so his continued absence will not impact fantasy basketball. However, Jerome’s absence will have a noticeable impact on Cleveland’s bench. Craig Porter Jr. will play rotation minutes, but there isn’t much to gain from rostering him in most leagues. Look for De’Andre Hunter’s offense to be of greater importance with Jerome unavailable.

Jerome will miss a second-straight game with this knee issue, which means there will be extra minutes off the bench for De’Andre Hunter and Sam Merrill. Max Strus (ankle) is also out, so one of Hunter or Merrill will likely get the start. Craig Porter Jr. will also have a chance to take on extra minutes.

Head coach Kenny Atkinson indicated shortly before the official announcement that he wasn’t expecting Jerome to play. De’Andre Hunter and Sam Merrill figure to feature more prominently in the rotation with Jerome sidelined.

Jerome is still questionable on the injury report, but it appears that he will miss Thursday’s game. Atkinson said he doesn’t think it’s a long-term issue, so there is a chance he plays on Friday in Detroit. De’Andre Hunter and Sam Merrill should see extra shots and minutes with Jerome likely out.

Jerome has reached double figures in seven straight games, most recently scoring 25 points in Tuesday’s win over the Trail Blazers. With Donovan Mitchell (groin) available for Thursday’s game, the Cavaliers would be covered on the perimeter if Jerome does not play.

Donovan Mitchell’s absence from Tuesday’s game may not have pushed Jerome into the starting lineup, but it did mean more opportunities to shine. The reserve guard has scored 20 points or more in 11 games, five more than his first five NBA seasons combined. Jerome may not be among the leading vote-getters for Sixth Man of the Year, but his progress in Cleveland cannot be denied. Rostered in 22 percent of Yahoo! leagues, he is worth streaming on nights when one of the Cavaliers’ two starting guards is unavailable.

Jerome will be back after getting a rest night against Brooklyn. He’ll occupy his typical bench role, which will take away minutes from Sam Merrill and Craig Porter Jr. after they took on larger roles on Tuesday.

Jerome has been rolling as a sparkplug off of Cleveland’s bench, and he’ll get the night off against Brooklyn. In his place, Sam Merrill and Craig Porter Jr. could see increased run.

With Donovan Mitchell (rest) out, Jerome stepped up for the Cavaliers despite coming off the bench. He’s scored 19 points or more in three of his last four outings and is ranked just outside the top 50 in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. Rostered in 21 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Jerome hasn’t reached Payton Pritchard territory regarding fantasy value. However, he’s headed in the right direction.
