Lucas was waived by the Grizzlies on Sunday, Zach Thomas of Three Shades of Blue reports. |

Lucas spent summer league and the preseason with the Grizzlies but was waived Oct. 25. He'll return to Memphis as insurance at the point guard spot with Mike Conley still battling a sprained ankle. Lucas averaged 15.1 points and 5.0 assists in 29 D-League games last season. |

Lucas has agreed to a training camp deal with the Grizzlies, Sportando reports. |
After averaging 13.9 points and 4.6 assists per game in the NBA D-League last season, Lucas averaged 8.3 points (48.0 FG, 33.3 3Pt, 87.5 FT), 2.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and 0.5 steals in 16 minutes per game during four games with the Grizzlies' Orlando Summer League squad, and now he has a shot to make the team. With Nick Calathes suspended to start the season it's possible the Grizzlies are looking to add a third point guard behind Mike Conley and Beno Udrih, but regardless, Lucas likely won't warrant much consideration in fantasy and can be safely avoided on draft-day. |
