The Dallas Mavericks welcome the Memphis Grizzlies to the American Airlines Center on Friday for the first time this season.
Forget about that. Chandler Parsons is back, and he’ll attempt to score 30 points against his former team. You know, the team that went all in for every other free agent but the one that actually wanted to stay in Dallas.
The Grizzlies gave Parsons what Dallas wouldn’t: a max contract. Dallas, left scrambling for a new starting small forward, took the ultimate risk by signing Harrison Barnes to a max deal and placing the future of the franchise in his hands, not Parsons.
