Projected Grizzlies 2016-17 Final Roster
15 make the team, there are 20 players on the training camp roster...
We know Conley, Allen, Parsons, Green, Gasol, Randolph, Wright, Carter, Baldwin, and Daniels will make the team. A few others are probably locked in as well, but not 100%...(Davis, Adams, Ennis, Martin fall into that category)
That being said, 5 of the following names will make the team, 2 get cut:
Deyonta Davis, Jordan Adams, James Ennis, Andrew Harrison, Vince Hunter, D.J. Stephens, and Jarrell Martin.
Who do you think?

Is the Vince Hunter signing a sign that Parsons' knee is worse than the Grizz are letting on?

I think Ennis gets a spot. Best +/- guy in preseason and knows Fizz well...

Ennis is signed to a guaranteed two year contract and can't be traded for a month and a half into the season. He has a spot.

RE: Projected Grizzlies 2016-17 Final Roster
I think these are the sure things (obviously)
PG: Conley
SG: Allen
SF: Parsons
PF: Green
C: Gasol
---------------
PG: Baldwin
SG: Daniels
SF: Carter
PF: Randolph
C: Wright
----------------
SF: Ennis
PF: Martin
13: ?
14: ?
15: ?
The following are battling for the final 3 roster spots:
SF - Troy Williams
PF - Vince Hunter
SG - Jordan Adams
C - Deyonte Davis
PG - Andrew Harrison
SF - DJ Stephens
SG - Chris Crawford
PG - Wayne Selden
Of the guaranteed roster spots, here's the roster break down:
PG: 2
SG: 2
SF: 3
PF: 3
C: 2
That being said, I would guess the final 3 spots go to:
C - Deyonte Davis
PG - Andrew Harrison
SF - Troy Williams
It wouldn't surprise me to see Jordan Adams get one of those final 2 spots either.

Davis just got drafted and has a guaranteed contract so he's not getting cut. Harrison also has a fully guaranteed deal so he's probably safe too. It's between Adams and the training camp invites for the final spot

Adams has a guaranteed deal and if they cut him, it's because they need his spot and don't expect him back.
If they keep him, insurance probably picks up a good portion of his salary. If they waive him, they may not get that benefit.

I can see them using the stretch provision on Adams and signing Troy Wlliams

RE: Projected Grizzlies 2016-17 Final Roster
Never understood what they ever saw in Adams to begin with.
Average athlete with average physique who isn't a deadeye shooter or unstoppable slasher or lockdown defender.
Think this is a case of being afraid to cut loose a former #1 pick.

I think they guaranteed him two years in a row without knowing how bad his injuries were.
Chris Wallace cut bait on Hasheem Thabeet.
