Memphis Grizzlies Sign Olivier-Maxence Prosper To Two-Way Contract

Overview

  • Prosper agreed to a two-way contract with Memphis on Thursday, a deal reported by ESPN’s Shams Charania and confirmed via his representatives.
  • Dallas waived and stretched his contract to create flexibility to complete the Dante Exum signing, resulting in a $1,002,360 dead cap hit in each of the next three seasons, per Spotrac.
  • Memphis had been among teams that explored trading for Prosper earlier in the offseason before his waiver.
  • The 6-foot-8 Canadian wing is noted for defensive versatility and posted a 42% three-point mark in 24 G League games last season.
  • He appeared in 92 games for Dallas with limited minutes, averaging 3.5 points and 2.2 rebounds, and the two-way slot lets the Grizzlies evaluate him without a long-term commitment.
