Greivis Vasquez Traded To New Orleans
In a surprising move, the Grizzlies have traded Greivis Vasquez to the New Orleans Hornets for Quincy Pondexter. Pondexter, at 6’6”, spends most of his time on the wing, but rebounds well for his size. In the two preseason games, he averaged 13 points and 8.5 rebounds, recording a double-double in the first game. While it is not clear how this solves the Grizzlies front court problems, it does indicate that the franchise has full faith in Jeremy Pargo as a back up point guard for Michael Conley. If I had to guess, I would think that this will end up being a predecessor for another move that will bring more size to Memphis.
