J.J. Frazier's dream of playing in the NBA is now one step closer to reality.
The Memphis Grizzlies' NBA G League affiliate, the Memphis Hustle, announced Monday that it has signed the former Georgia star point guard to a contract. To make room for Frazier, the Hustle waived Jerome Seagears.
G League players can receive a "call-up" to the NBA. The NBA's minor league system states on its website that at least 30 G League players have been called up in each of the past five seasons.
Over his tenure, Frazier emerged as one of the better players to ever suit up for Georgia in program history.
