Memphis Grizzlies: 6 bold predictions for upcoming season

Dillon Brooks makes his way into the rotation

A rookie making his way in the rotation? For the Memphis Grizzlies? What time period are we in?

Yep, a rookie will emerge as a permanent rotation player and will look like the Grizzlies’ smartest draft pick in a while. He’s a gritty basketball player who can do just about anything on the court. He can shoot the deep ball, score from anywhere on the court and get to the rim. On the defensive end, he doesn’t have the tools to succeed, but he has the aggression to not be a liability. More importantly, he plays winning basketball. He isn’t afraid of the big moment, and that’s when he thrives. 

In the second unit, there’s not anybody — with the exception of Tyreke Evans — that offers more on the court than Dillon Brooks, making him a favorite in the eyes of the coach Dave Fizdale and the fans. — Parker Fleming (@PAKA_FLOCKA)
