Grizz Depth Chart Post Trade

Memphis Grizzlies Depth Chart PER ESPN

PG Mike Conley, Delon Wright, Jevon Carter
SG Avery Bradley, CJ Miles, Julian Washburn
SF Justin Holiday, Tyler Dorsey, Bruno Caboclo, Kyle Anderson, Dillon Brooks
PF Jaren Jackson, Chandler Parsons, Yuta Wantabe
C Jonas Valanciunas, Joakim Noah, Ivan Rabb

Can't say that I like that lineup, as we need to lose out for the rest of the season to get our pick back, but it's also a get chance to test people at different spots now with minutes. Basically and evaluation for next year.

Our SG position continues to be a hodgepodge/daily special looking lineup. I also think Rabb will get plenty of burn and Bruno is ahead of Dorsey.

We need to rebuild. This is what rebuild should look like right now. Everything all over the place and not set in stone.To boogie,s point it's evaluation period on everybody. Who will stay and who will go will be revealed at the end of the season.

Based on what I see right now. A couple of scorers are needed for offensive punches. develop some talent in the G-League around the center position. Looking into Justin Patton and Dragan Bender for example. We don't know how things will turn out with Valanciunas at the center position currently. Look into free agency to find some solid young pieces around key positions like SG and PF if possible. Look into the idea of trading Parsons expiring contract for another dead weight contract and a player if possible.

Centre

Jonas - Physical, high efficiency low post option
Noah - defensive intensity
Rabb - Quality depth option
Jackson - 3&D, versatile small ball 5.

PF

Jackson - Stretch PF that would compliment Jonas efficient post game. When playing with Jonas I'd have him top corner arc taking 3's in a similar manner coach Bud has Lopez creating space for Giannis. This way Jackson would also be basically half court, which would help with the transition defense. Play him inside in small ball.

Bruno - Has been very solid defensively, needs to refine his 3pt shooting.
Stokes - ...
Rabb - Quality depth

SF

Draft - (Barret, Reddish, Hashimura, Hunter, Johnson, Little, Okpala, Hunter). Select the best 2 way SF of the bunch who can at the very least hit the 3 ball consistently.

Holiday - 3&D potential depth option
Miles - 3pt depth option

SG

Bradley - 3&D SG who can create a bit for himself.
Delon - Improving combo guard that has 3pt potential, was Raptors best perimeter defender until Kawhi
Holiday - Quality potential 3&D depth

PG

Conley - Allstar PG
Delon - "Improving ..."
Jevon Carter - Quality depth, with potential

As I've mentioned a couple times now, a base core of Jonas, Derozan & Lowry have won 50 games the last 7 seasons with holes & a revolving door at SF/PF over that span.. Derozan is an excellent scorer but was a defensive liability & Conley is on par, younger than Lowry … & you already have Jackson who's better than anything Raptors had at PF & Small ball 5 until Pascal.

What is missing is DeRozan's offensive capability on the wing.

I think if your team can draft & hit on a quality 2 way wing who can at the very least hit the 3 ball consistently, it'd make a significant impact on a team that so far has been in every game since trading Gasol. Keeping this group & hitting on that pick, Memphis should be able to successfully convey the 2020 pick, IMO.

C - Jonas/Noah/Rabb - Jackson, small ball
PF - Jackson/Bruno/Rabb
SF - Draft/Holiday/Miles
SG - Bradley/Delon/Holiday
PG - Conley/Delon/Carter
