Report: Grizzlies Waive Dion Waiters Days After Trade Acquisition

If Dion Waiters is to continue his NBA career, it won't be in a Memphis Grizzlies uniform.

Just days after being part of a trade which centered around Andre Iguodala and Jae Crowder heading from Memphis to Miami, the Grizzlies have waived Waiters, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania.

Waiters will reportedly receive his pay for the remainder of this season and $12.6M in 2020-21.

The former No. 4 pick in the 2012 NBA draft has appeared in just three games this season, playing just 42 combined minutes.

In late December, reports surfaced that the Heat were "determined" to move on from Waiters, having suspended him three times before Christmas.
