Sources: The Memphis Grizzlies and former No. 4 pick Josh Jackson have agreed for him not to join the team in training camp, and start the season in the NBA G League.

Third year and already starting to circle the drain if he doesn't turn his stuff around quick. Some of it's attributable to Phoenix being such a mess but remember when there was a lot of debate about whether to pick him or Tatum?

It is crazy that in a trade involving a former 4th overall pick in his third year in the league, we might refer to that trade next year as the "De'Anthony Melton trade"

I’m curious as to whether the Grizzlies plan to pick up his Year 4 option for next season.  I’d guess not.

There was a time when I really thought he was going to be good.

One of the few draft picks I was right about. This dude was way overrated from the start. His shot mechanics were horrible, and his T-rex arms were a sure sign that he wasn't gonna be this great defender people though he was gonna be.

There were a few players in that draft that I just didn't see what so many others saw. Jackson was one. Ntilikina, Smith and Isaac were the others.

Gotta say, I guess I was wrong on Fultz and Ball though. I thought Ball had the chance to be the best player in that draft.

Agreed on all of them except Jonathan Isaac. I think he has the potential to be an excellent defender.
