The Memphis Grizzlies and forward Chandler Parsons have reached a four-year, $94 million agreement, a person with direct knowledge of the deal told Paste BN Sports.
The person requested anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly until the deal is official after the free agency moratorium ends on July 7.
Parsons was one of the prized wings on the market. He’s an efficient scorer and shot 41.4% on three-pointers last season. But he has undergone two surgeries on his right knee in the past two years, so question marks surround his health moving forward.
Still, the Grizzlies got one of the players they wanted ... for a price.
