[Wojnarowski] ESPN Sources: The Memphis Grizzlies plan to sign guards Shaq Harrison and Jaylen Nowell with two newly awarded hardship 10-day contracts. The NBA approved the hardship roster spots after Memphis had five injured players ruled out over the next two-plus weeks.

Saw Woj and thought we were getting the Giddey bomb…
Well this basically confirms Bane got hurt yesterday. Top 3 pick here we come
Are “hardship” contracts a specific thing, or is that just what Woj is calling them in this context? I’ve never heard of that before.
Nowell revenge game coming on Sunday
what’s the rule on hardship contracts? Should the Hornets have applied for one when Terry Rozier went down a couple weeks ago? We were already down Martin, Bouknight, and Ntilikina.
I’m worried Clifford is running the 5 or 6 playable talents on the team into the ground.
What happened to Nowell? I thought he was decent for the wolves just last year
They should tank. When Ja is eligible to play, they’ll be at best 7-18. In order to rack up a total of 45 games, which would be barely enough in the West for playoffs, they’d have to go 38-19 with Ja on the roster, which is a 55-win pace.
Jaylen Nowell I used to think he’d be something. Like a 6th man of the year winner.
Nowell provides a scoring punch that the Grizz could use although expectations would have to be low considering he hasn’t played an NBA game this season.
I don’t believe Harrison is the correct addition as the second player coming in as he doesn’t really provide what they need at this current time which would be more shooting. He is someone familiar with the Grizz system though.
Grizz are gonna have to continue to chug along and try to not be totally out of the race when Ja returns but looks less likely by the day.
shaq is awesome. tulsa legend
Shaq Harrinson , Boylens favorite player.
Bulls legend Shaq Harrison
Shaq Harrison stan reporting in
Nowell was good a couple years ago, if he can get back to that he’s a decent rotation player. He’s got a pretty solid offensive game, streaky shooter though.
NBA needs to investigate the medical staff here, it’s reaching like malpractice levels the amount of injuries this team has had these last few seasons…
That’s Laker Legend Shaq Harrison to you Woj! Wait a minute….
We are gonna have 30 players on our roster for our 30 For 30.
Like 18 months ago the Grizzlies had the deepest roster in the league. Talented guys were fighting just to get minutes. This is wild.
Have they not tried simply killing 5 of their players?
We are not good in the West. lol.
Feel for griz fans, man. I’m thinking what it would feel like to see our guy Fox get into some stupid stuff and totally torpedo the franchise. Sucks to see. Hope the tank results in some positive results.
