Ty Jerome’s $27.6M, 3-year Grizzlies deal is a steal—if he stays healthy. Coming off a top-3 Sixth Man finish, he averaged 19.7 PPG and 5.7 APG last season, but only played 15 games due to a calf injury. Before that, he led the NBA in points created per 100 possessions and shot elite splits—just not consistently. His durability has been his Achilles’ heel, missing most of 2023-24 with Cleveland after ankle surgery and struggling defensively without elite athleticism. While he’s not on recent PG rankings, his ceiling is high if he can play full seasons at those shooting percentages. At just over $9M/year, he’s a team-friendly asset who could be a trade chip or key contributor for Memphis as they aim for a playoff spot in a league where tanking isn’t as tempting.
