Memphis Grizzlies: Grading The Courtney Lee Trade
Courtney Lee
Grade: A-
Courtney Lee’s arrival to the Memphis Grizzles has rejuvenated his career. The sixth-year man out of Western Kentucky is averaging 13.6 points per game with the Grizzlies-which would be a career high. Additionally he has been a huge upgrade over Jerryd Bayless. Bayless was a high volume shooter, making only 37.7 percent of his buckets in Memphis. Lee, on the other hand, has been shooting at career high 49.4 percent clip. His 1.3 3-pointers per game has also helped spread the floor. Since his arrival to Memphis, the Grizzles have been 18-7 and have slowly climbed back into the playoff picture.
