Grizzlies Restructure Deal With UConn's Cam Spencer

Cam Spencer, a former UConn standout and Anne Arundel County native, has signed a four-year, $10.5 million contract with the Memphis Grizzlies, with three years fully guaranteed and a fourth-year team option. The agreement, reported by ESPN's Shams Charania, replaces an earlier two-year, $4.5 million contract after Memphis created additional cap space through roster moves. Spencer averaged 4.2 points, 1.4 assists, and 1.2 rebounds in 25 games during his rookie season with the Grizzlies and delivered strong performances in the G League. The franchise's decision to restructure Spencer's deal reflects their confidence in his value as a bench contributor, especially as they rebuild around Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. following recent trades and playoff disappointments. Spencer's leadership and shooting skills, demonstrated during UConn's 2023-24 national championship run, are expected to bolster Memphis' roster depth.
