Grizzlies: 3 lineups to be excited about in 2021-22
The High Flyers: Ja Morant, Jarrett Culver, Ziarie Williams, Brandon Clarke, Jaren Jackson, Jr.
The all-bounce team for the Memphis Grizzlies could be the most exciting lineup Coach Taylor Jenkins could use.
This is probably as far-fetched of a line-up as you could come up with and one that would probably not be very effective, but it would be fun.
Maybe you could see this line-up at the end of an open practice or scrimmage game in front of fans. Can you imagine the fast breaks? The dunks? The alley-oops? They would be ridiculously fun to watch.
This is probably the five most athletic players that could see playing time for the Memphis Grizzlies next season, but it would be unlikely that these five players would all be on the court at the same time.
We’re only likely to see Culver and Williams at the end of games in blow-out scenarios—times when Morant and Jaren Jackson, Jr. are unlikely to still remain on the court.
An honorable mention for this lineup would be Yves Pons, who is currently on an Exhibit 10 contract. He’s unlikely to be on the main roster for the Memphis Grizzlies but could find a spot with the team’s G-League affiliate, the Memphis Hustle.
Pons was an electric player for the University of Tennessee, blocking shots and throwing down dunks during his four-year career with the SEC school.
