Adams won't play in Friday's matchup against the Grizzlies due to a left calf strain and a lingering right knee injury, Ben DuBose of USA Today reports.
Adams will miss his second consecutive game to open the regular season. The big man is expected to eventually serve as the primary backup center behind Alperen Sengun, and Jock Landale will likely pick up extra minutes until Adams can return to game action. His next chance to suit up will come Saturday against the Spurs.
