Grizzlies sign Prosper to multi-year contract
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Memphis Grizzlies forward Olivier-Maxence Prosper has signed a multi-year contract.
The Grizzlies announced the deal Wednesday without disclosing terms.
Prosper, 23, has averaged 7.6 points, 3.1 rebounds and 15.8 minutes in 36 games with the Grizzlies this season. He has made seven starts for them.
Over Prosper's last nine games, the 6-foot-7 forward has averaged 14 points and 24.3 minutes while shooting 67.5% from the floor.
Memphis signed him to a two-way contract on Sept. 4.
The Sacramento Kings selected Prosper out of Marquette with the 24th pick in the 2023 draft and immediately traded him to the Dallas Mavericks. Prosper played 40 games for Dallas in 2023-24 and 52 games last season.
