Chris Vernon joins the latest episode of Fastbreak Breakfast to discuss what’s next for the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies head into the offseason with so many variables that it can be hard for the fanbase to even figure out what they want. Should they want Mike Conley to stay around or is it best to trade him for a young asset and/or a pick? What about the new coach? Should they hire yet another unproven assistant coach or try and get a retread with some experience? After getting acquiring him in the Marc Gasol trade, is it better for Jonas Valanciunas to exercise his $17.6 million player or to opt out? Should the team prioritize keeping Delon Wright?

Perhaps the biggest variable in the Grizzlies offseason is one they have absolutely no control over: next Tuesday’s NBA Draft Lottery. Will a top pick mean Mike Conley decides he wants to stick around? How will Memphis approach free agency if they end up still owing their 2020 pick to Boston? If the picks conveys, how will they choose to add pieces around Jaren Jackson Jr?

To answer these questions and offer his perspective on what is best for Memphis, Chris Vernon joins the latest episode of Fastbreak Breakfast. Chris covers the Grizzlies for Grind City Media and is a host of The Ringer’s NBA Show.
