Bane has been sidelined for the Grizzlies' last two games due to a left ankle sprain, but he has progressed enough in his recovery to return Saturday. Bane's return will likely send Luke Kennard back to the bench.

The Grizzlies have six total players on the injury report and will be without one of their star players. Desmond Bane has been ruled out for Wednesday’s game with a left ankle sprain. This sprain came during the Milwaukee Bucks game on Monday. During that game, he played 29 minutes and finished with 22 points and 9 assists.
