Grizzlies PG Conley out with fractures in back

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Mike Conley will miss an extended period due to a transverse process fracture in his lower back, sources confirmed to ESPN.

Conley is likely to miss six to eight weeks, a source told ESPN's Jeff Goodman. Conley will not need surgery.

Conley sustained the injury during the third quarter of Monday's loss to the Charlotte Hornets.

The Grizzlies are now missing Chandler Parsons (knee), Zach Randolph (personal leave), James Ennis (calf) and Brandan Wright (ankle).
