On Tuesday, the Memphis Grizzlies made another move to further prepare their training camp roster. Within the process, several things are happening behind the scenes.

The latest roster move arrived in the form of the release of guard Kobi Simmons. The 6’5″ guard emerged as an undrafted steal in his rookie year of 2017-18. He appeared in 32 games (12 starts) en route to producing 6.1 points, 1.6 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game on 42.3% field goal shooting. For an undrafted rookie, these were huge feats, not to mention he received 20.1 minutes per contest from the Grizzlies while playing on a two-way contract.
