3.  Nerlens Noel

The former No. 6 overall draft pick out of Kentucky re-signed with the Oklahoma City Thunder last summer on a one-year deal with the hopes of proving that he would be worth more than the minimum.

Noel is a tall shot-blocker who is a bit limited on the offensive end. In his 61 games last season, Noel averaged 7.4 points in 18 minutes per game.

He could be a nice addition for a cheaper price if the Grizzlies want to look at adding some depth at this position. Noel would add another shot-blocker and rim-runner to the Grizzlies bench.
