Memphis Grizzlies guard Ty Jerome (ankle) will remain on the shelf against the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday night. He has been ruled out for a ninth consecutive game.

James Harden Available Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard James Harden (personal) is expected to rejoin the lineup on Wednesday against the Atlanta Hawks. The team hasn't included him on the injury report.
