The Memphis Grizzlies announced their new D-League affiliate — the Memphis Hustle — a few months ago. New slick design has fans ecstatic about the gear coming out. Jerseys, shirts, hoodies, you name it! However, fans should be excited about the expansion draft:
Just imagine a D-League game where Jimmer Fredette is launching deep 3-pointers. Or where DJ Stephens skies over his opponent for the poster dunk. Or where Jamaal Franklin is reeling in triple doubles.
All of that sounds exhilarating — especially for D-League basketball. With the Hustle team new to Memphis, they need marketable players to generate hype.
