Grizzlies Sign Luke Hancock For Camp

SEPTEMBER 25TH: The deal is official, as the Grizzlies have followed up with a formal announcement.

SEPTEMBER 11TH: Memphis has yet to make an official announcement, but the Grizzlies and Hancock put pen to paper last week, as the RealGM transactions log shows. Hancock’s deal is without a guarantee, reports Eric Pincus of Basketball Insiders (Twitter link).

AUGUST 31ST: Luke Hancock has agreed to a one-year, minimum salary deal with the Grizzlies, league sources tell Shams Charania of RealGM (on Twitter).

Hancock began his collegiate career at George Mason University before the departure of coach Jim Larrañaga led him to transfer to Louisville.  In 2013, Hancock was named the Most Outstanding Player of the NCAA tournament as he helped lead the Cardinals to a National Championship.

Hancock auditioned for the 76ers, Pistons, Bucks, Jazz, Rockets, and Celtics prior to the draft but wasn’t selected in June.  The Pedro Power client averaged 10.1 PPG and shot ~37% from downtown in his two seasons with Louisville.
