In case you haven’t heard yet, the Memphis Grizzlies signed restricted free agent Tyus Jones to a 3-year, $28 million offer sheet. As is the case with all offer sheets, the Timberwolves will have three days to match the contract and bring back the 23-year-old back to his native Minnesota.
At a touch over $9 million a year, a deal that would push the Wolves right up against the luxury tax line, there is certainly an argument against bringing back a reserve point guard whose size and shooting stroke have caused worries for his entire career.
