Despite a "plus" night from Chandler Parsons (3-points on the night) along with solid play from Ivan Rabb, Mike Conley, and Joakim Noah, the Grizzlies couldn't answer with enough shooting to beat the Clippers Friday night (2/22) at FedExForum. Final: LA Clippers 112 Memphis Grizzlies 106

But the players on the court weren't the story by the end of the game Memphis lost. It was news that broke from ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that Jaren Jackson Jr. might be out for the season due to a "quad" issue.  As Adrian Wojnarowski's story notes, this could be the thing that truly keeps the Grizzlies from conveying their 1st round (top 8 protected pick) to Boston.
