Recovered by the Grizzlies in February 2020, as part of Andre Iguodala’s transfer to Miami, Justise Winslow has never been able to prove her worth in Tennessee. In question: an injury to the hip, which required a long period of rehabilitation, of more than a year.
Appeared only 27 times with Memphis (26 regular season games, one playoff meeting), the 25-year-old winger inevitably suspected that his leaders would not take the risk of paying him $ 13 million next season, with also few guarantees on the physical level.
Without surprise, The Athletic nous informe therefore the Grizzlies have not activated the “team option” of Justise Winslow. Therefore, he will test the market for the first time in his career, starting this week.
And, despite his “all-around” side, his defensive qualities and his versatility, the former Heat player will certainly have to whip to convince a franchise to offer him a contract over several years, at an attractive salary. Because, in addition to his recent physical glitches, the former resident of Duke does not particularly reassure offensively, due to an irregular shoot.
As it stands, it is therefore complicated to determine the market value of Justise Winslow and to know which teams could come after him in the coming days.
The Memphis Grizzlies have declined Justise Winslow’s $13 million team option for next season, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.
