Grizzlies expected to waive Eric Gordon

The Grizzlies are expected to move on from Eric Gordon.

Memphis is likely to waive the veteran guard after acquiring him from the 76ers in what was essentially a salary-dump move, sources tell Yahoo Sports.

Gordon appeared in just six games this season and was never part of the Grizzlies’ on-court plans.

Now 37, Gordon is on a minimum deal that carries only a $2.3 million cap hit, making him easy to move on from. Once released, he’ll be free to sign with any team except Philadelphia.

This feels less like a basketball decision and more like a bookkeeping one. Gordon’s résumé speaks for itself — 18 NBA seasons, nearly a thousand games, and a long run as a reliable scorer and floor-spacer.

But those days are mostly in the rearview mirror. He hasn’t been a regular rotation piece in a couple of years, and it’s unclear how much interest he’ll draw this time around.
