Grizzlies Re-Sign Tony Wroten
August 8th 2016 at 1:25pm CST by Luke Adams
A roller coaster of an offseason for Tony Wroten continued today, as the former first-round point guard formally signed a new contract with the Grizzlies, according to a press release from the team. The club’s official announcement also confirmed previously reported deals for D.J. Stephens, Troy Williams, and Wayne Selden.

Wroten, the 25th overall pick in the 2012 draft, appeared in just eight games for the Sixers last season before Philadelphia waived him in December. The Knicks later signed Wroten to a two-year deal, minimum-salary deal that contained no guaranteed money for the 2016/17 campaign, but removed him from their roster in June when they acquired Derrick Rose from the Bulls. The Grizzlies claimed him off waivers at that point, but cut him in July.

One recent report from international basketball journalist David Pick indicated that Wroten could end up re-signing with Memphis, so it’s possible the Grizzlies simply wanted to rework the terms of the 23-year-old’s contract before bringing him back. Of course, based on the team’s cap limitations, neither Wroten nor any of the other three signees whose deals were confirmed today will receive more than the minimum salary.

A Washington product, Wroten began his NBA career in Memphis in 2012, before later joining the Sixers. In 145 total games in the NBA, he has averaged 11.1 points and 3.0 assists per contest, but has shot just 41.3% from the floor, including a paltry 23.1% from downtown. When Wroten was waived by the Knicks, a report from Stefan Bondy and Frank Isola of The New York Daily News suggested that the team made the decision due to an undisclosed disciplinary issue, but it appears that issue didn’t scare off the Grizzlies.

I bet Bip the intern is just dying to program that. LMAO

It looks like Alex Shved is tearing things up Doncic-style in Euroleague play this season. (sure, he's 30 now, not 19... so that limits his upside...)

People felt the same way about Shved but you have to look at a player's skills and talents and how they may not work for most systems but will work well in this system. I'm hoping Wroten adds the missing "attacking big guard" back into this offense. It's what Shved did best and also what Wroten does best.

This thread was the biggest circle jerk of ALL time. Nixluva calling Rotten the next Alexi Schved!
Lmfao! Funny on so many levels!
