Jordan Adams

Adams, the Grizzlies first-round pick in 2014, hasn't been able to stay healthy since coming into the league which definitely factored into him being waived. He played just two games in 2015 before getting cartilage removal surgery that ended his campaign. Adams is still very young and will likely catch on elsewhere. He'll probably end up in the D-League in all likelihood.

Just a few weeks ago, SG Jordan Adams was playing to make the teams final roster, and had high hopes in doing so. On Saturday however, the Memphis Grizzlies, a team vying once again for playoff contention this year, opt to cut Adams. The oft injured shooting guard is now a free agent, and will have the ability to play elsewhere as likely depth off the bench.

Adams is underwent surgery on his right knee. He is having cartilage transplanted in that knee and he is considered to be out indefinitely.

This will be the young guard's second knee surgery in a year but it won't cost him the rest of the season. The timeline for his recovery is 6-8 weeks following Tuesday's surgery. He has been a complete non-factor this season for the Grizz only playing in two games all year. He will now look to get healthy and work toward a more impactful 2016-17 campaign.
