Chandler Parsons' only Christmas wish: 'Healthy knees'

Forget a new bike, toy trains, or a Red Ryder B.B. gun, Chandler Parsons only has one wish for Christmas this year:

The Grizzlies' $94-million man may be on to something. The knee surgery that the 28-year-old underwent in the offseason has limited him to only six of his team's first 20 games this season, where he's averaged 7.7 points and three rebounds on a dismal 39 percent shooting.

Hopefully Parsons lands on Santa's nice list because with Mike Conley going down for six weeks, Memphis will need him.
