Grizzlies sign Lamar Stevens to 10-day contract, waive Johnny Davis

The Memphis Grizzlies have signed forward Lamar Stevens to a 10-day contract, bringing him back to the team after he previously played 19 games for them last season. To make room for Stevens, the Grizzlies waived guard Johnny Davis, who was acquired at the trade deadline but never played for the team. Stevens, who recently played for the Motor City Cruise in the G League, averaged 11.5 points and 5.1 rebounds during his last stint with Memphis. This move is aimed at enhancing the Grizzlies' wing depth as they look to contend in the Western Conference. The team is nearing full health, making this an opportune time for Stevens to contribute. Davis, the 10th overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft, is expected to attract interest as a free agent after his release.
