The Memphis Grizzlies just pulled off one of the more high-profile trades in recent memory, sending Jonas Valanciunas to New Orleans for Steven Adams, Eric Bledsoe, and a handful of upgraded 2021 NBA Draft picks.
While Steven Adams is a serviceable player who can step right into the Grizzlies’ starting lineup, there are more question marks surrounding the other player attached in the trade in Eric Bledsoe.
Bledsoe is still a pretty strong NBA player, but his numbers don’t agree with the salary that he was promised.
