Grizzlies to Waive Eric Gordon After Trade From 76ers

The move frees Philadelphia to convert two-way forward Dominick Barlow.

Overview

  • Philadelphia sent Gordon and a 2032 second-round pick swap to Memphis, according to multiple reports.
  • Memphis is placing the veteran guard on waivers, which would make him eligible to sign with any team except the 76ers if unclaimed.
  • The 76ers executed the deal to create the roster flexibility needed to convert Dominick Barlow from a two-way contract.
  • Gordon has appeared in six games this season, averaging 5.5 points and last playing on December 23.
  • He is on a $3.6 million deal with a reported $2.3 million cap hit, and the transaction comes as the Grizzlies rework their roster, including a separate trade of Jaren Jackson Jr. to the Jazz.
