[@SteadyAscension]

They haven’t signed Luke Kennard yet because the front office is trying to see if they can cheap out and just use Cam Spencer 😂

[@alberteinstein1452]

You’re not wrong unfortunately

[@Eagle8]

In all fairness to Luke, get what you can. The reality is his stock has dropped. The Grizzlies are inviting Luke to get 14.8 from another team if he can. Westbrook recently had the largest pay cut in league history. Tobias Harris will lose 15 million per year starting this year. Luke being cut from 15 million to 10 want break him.

[@TJIRISH44]

Indianapolis Area/Purdue Edey Fan. Damichael is correct. Memphis Grizzlies fan now and watching your coverage.

Welcome!

That's what's up..Welcome!

[@nonoGomz]

Hopefully you're not a Colts fan 😂😂😂

[@neanam]

Titans and Grizzlies 〽️

[@TJIRISH44]

@@nonoGomz Actually I am not a Colts Fan. I am a Bengal Fan. Rest of my family is Colts fans. As for Titans they have work to do to become a contender again. I liked their off season roster moves... Edey is a great fit for the Grizzlies. Edey has a very Professional no nonsense mature demeanor to his personality. He will work hard to improve his short comings to become a better NBA Player. Edey could barely play 10 minutes a game his freshman season. He ended up playing 40 minutes in NCAA Tournament games his Senior season. I could see Edey becoming a decent outside shooter over the coming years. I am already seeing Purdue Fans out buying Memphis Grizzlies gear.

[@southt8907]

The better comparison is Cam Spencer and Luke Kennard. Is Cam a good enough shooter to replace Kennard and give us some salary cap breathing room?

[@ek1743]

Cam is just as good a shooter and a better defender. I think Luke is done for

[@amandamcgee609]

Wondered the same. Love what I'm seeing with Cam so far..

[@Eagle8]

There is no comparison. Cam is a complete player. Luke is one dimensional, and in a playoff game, he would disappear.

[@mikkoss8704]

If Cam, Wells, & Edey are even remotely productive as they have been in summer league, Ziaire & Konchar days are numbered

[@EchoDragonHawk]

Yup they need to go already

[@GenoGwap]

I think finding a trade for them is the holdup in resigning Luke

[@mikkoss8704]

@@GenoGwap I agree. I think Kleiman is trying to find a backup big then use whatever money left to sign Kennard. If I'm him, I'm using a first, Ziaire, and a few seconds to get Kessler, then sign Kennard. Trade deadline, upgrade the roster with another piece using Konchar & Santi as trade pieces. That playoff roster would be STACKED then

[@Eagle8]

You can add Rose and Aldama to the list. Rose is broken, but the other three have had Years to prove themselves.

[@m3staxxx701]

Cam is the truth.

[@anthonyhall4793]

Excited with the state of the team! Still think we need 1 more average at best backup center. Break glass in case of emergency type! Vet Minimum will suffice!!

[@johnelliott3439]

There are no useful serviceable free agent bigs left. A trade will be required to get one.

[@ceejordan9649]

At this point a serviceable backup would be a luxury. Edey, JJJ, Clarke, and Santi is a pretty good front court. Jemison is the development guy. I'm not sure we even have another roster spot, especially if Luke gets resigned

[@neanam]

Why can't the Grizzlies go get boogie cousins?

[@60zeller]

I have a much higher opinion of Cam

[@ceejordan9649]

@60zeller hell ill take him, Wells and Luke. No such thing as too many shooters

[@walterparker7803]

Cam reminds me of John Paxson

[@willynanney]

Ziaire is such a waste of a roster spot

[@neanam]

Dang you giving it up like that? Lol

[@M1ghty888]

@@neanam Ziaire Williams??? How many more years do you want to give him for him to develop??? He hasn’t changed anything since he’s been here…

[@neanam]

@@M1ghty888 I agree with you. I was just saying that willy was giving it up raw

[@williewhite1161]

Cam Spencer is already better than John Konchar. Konchars' confidence seems to come and go a lot. Cam seems like his confidence never disappears even when he is struggling.

[@AnthonyLuna-my2ni]

Im from CT and Im telling y'all CAM is the REAL DEAL and invites smoke, he doesn't shy away, he's a dog with great bball I.Q.

[@williewhite1161]

I know it is extremely early, but I already like Wells and Spencer over Konchar, Zaire and Larabia. And I surely hope we can resign Kennard.

[@AKWuzHere]

Not konchar he's more than a shooter he defends a d rebounds

[@williewhite1161]

@@AKWuzHere good point

Great Show!

[@brandonlovelace7751]

It’s summer league.. they’re young.. GG will do better but 12 is definitely gone find Eddy sealing off in the paint 🥽. Easy lobs too.

[@alexanderhartsuff6422]

This the same guy that shit on the Edey pick when it happened btw

[@colbybrand5326]

We are fools if we let Luke kennard go

[@davonbaskett7310]

Wells better than konchar and Zaire just doesn't have their build yet

[@Anon-qp3kt]

Now we need Ja to lay off the gang bs

[@johnelliott3439]

Your perception of Ja seems off base. There is no indication of gang behavior. Just poor judgment and foolish behavior.

[@fluidsoffornication4636]

You clown

[@stevensheegog3942]

@@johnelliott3439I agree. I guess we have state representatives who are gang members too. They take Christmas Card pics with assault weapons.

You haven't heard any gang stuff for 2 years. Gtf over it

[@amandamcgee609]

Who is "we"? The city of Memphis and true Grizzlies fans moved on long ago and we support him fully. He made some mistakes but who hasn't. He seems to be at peace and is happy.
