Tyreke Evans has agreed to a one-year deal worth $3.3 million with the Memphis Grizzlies, according to multiple reports.

After being traded by the New Orleans Pelicans, Evans finished the 2016-17 season with the Sacramento Kings, averaging 10.3 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.1 assists through 40 games.

The 2009-10 Rookie of the Year, Evans has been riddled by injuries for the last couple of seasons.

At six-foot-six and 220 pounds, the Grizzlies will get a capable scorer that can come off the bench or even start at both the shooting guard and small forward positions.
