While Mike Conley would rather participate in the all-star game on Sunday, the Taco Bell Skills Challenge is a good consolation for him. With all the rumors surrounding Conley, it’s very possible he won’t be in a Memphis Grizzlies uniform by the time NBA all-star weekend comes around.
If in fact he is traded which seems very possible, it will be a bittersweet moment to see him participate in his new uniform. He is one of the best guards in this league so while this isn’t the recognition he deserves, it is a good start.
