Analysis:
Conley suffered an Achilles injury during Sunday's matchup with the Suns and was originally given a three-to-five day timetable for a return. He's being listed as out indefinitely, so it remains unclear how long the Grizzlies plan to hold him out. Because of the lack of clarity around the situation, he should continue to be considered questionable for Friday's outing versus the Pelicans until we get an official update on his status, although it's looking highly unlikely that he's able to make a surprise return. Newly signed Briante Weber and Lance Stephenson would likely see increased minutes if Conley does indeed sit out as expected.
