Memphis Grizzlies
The Memphis Grizzlies are on a good path. They have some great young players as the foundation of the team and finished this season in eighth place in the Western Conference after winning both of their NBA Play-In Tournament games. Now, it is time to build up the roster around those young players.
While the Grizzlies isn’t a contending team yet, adding some veterans to help cement themselves as a playoff team would make sense and Bojan Bogdanovic would help them do that.
Bogdanovic would give the Grizzlies scoring from the wing, something they lack consistently outside of Dillon Brooks. He has averaged at least 17 points per game the last three seasons and would greatly improve the team’s 3-point shooting.
The Grizzlies finished the 2020-21 season 20th in 3-point shooting percentage, 23rd in attempts and 24th in makes per game. Bogdanovic is a 39.3 percent shooter from distance in his career and made 2.5 per game on 6.4 attempts this past season. He improved those numbers to 3.2 out of 6.9 during the postseason.

While Bogdanovic has his shortcomings defensively, the Grizzlies are good enough on that end of the court to overcome it.
