Memphis Grizzlies

Kyle Anderson 

The Memphis Grizzlies elected not to blow up their roster and instead decided to build to it. And while this season will most likely depend on how good Mike Conley and Marc Gasol can be, Kyle Anderson is an addition that not many are talking about.

Developed by Gregg Popovich, Anderson is the type of player that just shows up and produces on a nightly basis. He’s not going to be the flashiest player or jump off the screen on most nights, but when looking at the stat sheet you’re going to notice him.

With the Spurs, Anderson was a solid overall player. However, he continued to get better each season despite not popping. I believe that will change this season, and that he’ll make a big jump this season with the Grizzlies.
