He initially was out due to surgery needed on his right knee, but he also suffered a right calf strain that has forced him to miss most games this season. 

The Grizzles announced late last month that Clarke was still rehabbing his injury, but recent tests showed that he needed more time to heal. He is expected to return next season.

Clarke was the 21st overall pick of the 2019 NBA Draft by the Oklahoma City Thunder, but he was traded to the Grizzlies, where he’s been ever since. 

He made the 2019-20 All-Rookie team after averaging 12.1 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, playing in a bench role for Memphis that year. 

Clarke has primarily been a depth player for the Grizzlies throughout his career, earning 50 starts out of his 309 games played.
