Ty Jerome: “I don’t think it needs to be too much of the rah-rah speech stuff. I think the good thing about this group, even though they’re young, is we got a really mature group. So, everyone will look in the mirror, starts with myself and everyone will look in the mirror and see how we need to improve. And tomorrow we’ll all come in the building and see what we need to improve on from the game and we’ll get better together.”

Damichael Cole: Entertaining hoops tonight. That was a battle. Memphis fell 135-134 in overtime against the Pelicans. Ty Jerome was terrific down the stretch. He scored 40. Zion Williamson had 25. Grizz-Pacers on Wednesday

Grizzlies PR: Status Update for @memgrizz: Ty Jerome, Scotty Pippen Jr. and Quinten Post are inactive tonight against the Kings.

Damichael Cole: Ty Jerome is good to go. He gave the medical staff a head nod after his workout a few minutes ago.

JPOSU: Brian Windhorst on potential OKC trades: “And this is one thing I’ve talked to executives about, and I don’t mean to be cryptic, but I’m being cryptic… if they're going to acquire a player, would not be a surprise, if they acquire a player they've already had.” Fwiw later in the podcast when talking about the Grizz, Windy says he “knows for sure” that Ty Jerome was liked by OKC (and Cleveland and Golden State) while he was with those franchise."

A disabled player exception, if granted by the league, can only be used on players who are only under contract for the current season in question, but Oklahoma City could certainly use one of its trade exceptions to take in a contract of that size. It seems relatively safe to presume that Jerome — whether or not Oklahoma City shows interest — is bound to generate trade feelers between now and the Feb. 11 trade deadline given Memphis' perceived focus on its young trio of Cam Boozer, Zach Edey and Cedric Coward.

NBA Communications: Memphis Grizzlies guard Ty Jerome and Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey have been named the NBA Western and Eastern Conference Players of the Week, respectively, for Week 1 of the 2026-27 season (Oct. 20-25).

Kellan Olson: Ty Jerome has 104 points and 17 assists in his first 3 games this season. He joins Giannis Antetokounmpo, Tyrese Maxey and Luka Doncic as the only players to start a season like that in the last 5 years, per @Stathead.

Oh No He Didn't: Steph on the NBA's early leading scorer Ty Jerome: "I know he's happy to be healthy and he's obviously gotten a lot better since he was here. He was great player when he was here, but he's got a full green light over there to kind of do whatever he wants and run their system, and initiate a lot of their scoring. He's a tough cover and got a lot of weapons around him...he's doing a great job"

Ty Jerome averaged 41.2 points and 11.9 assists per 100 possessions — no, seriously — while shooting 42.2 percent from 3. His 25.6 PER would have ranked him seventh in the league if he’d played enough minutes. Those numbers could also make him an in-season trade candidate for a rebuilding Grizzlies team, but first things first. “If healthy” is doing a lot of work here, but if Jerome and Zach Edey stay healthy, the Grizzlies could be shockingly frisky.
