Memphis Grizzlies center Steven Adams will miss the rest of the regular season after receiving stem cell injections in his injured right knee.
The team announced Thursday that Adams will be re-evaluated in four weeks. The regular season ends April 9. Memphis is the third seed in the Western Conference entering Thursday play and has lost three games in a row.
Adams hasn’t played since Jan. 22, when he strained his PCL in a loss to Phoenix.
It piles on to the woes in Memphis. Ja Morant remains suspended for his off-court hijinks and Brandon Clarke was lost for the season to an Achilles injury.
Adams, 29, is averaging 8.6 points and 11.5 rebounds in 42 starts this season, his second in Memphis.
He has career averages of 9.2 points and 8.2 rebounds in nine-plus seasons with the Oklahoma City Thunder, New Orleans Pelicans and Grizzlies.
