Memphis Grizzlies fanbase, former beloved point guard Mike Conley has strongly suggested a potential return to the team where he spent over a decade, building a legacy as one of the franchise’s all-time greats…
- Mike Conley Jr.’s potential return to the Memphis Grizzlies has stirred emotions among fans and analysts alike. Conley, drafted fourth overall by Memphis in 2007, spent 12 seasons with the team, becoming its all-time leader in points, assists, and steals. He was a cornerstone of the “Grit and Grind” era, alongside Marc Gasol, Zach Randolph, and Tony Allen. Even after his 2019 trade to the Utah Jazz and subsequent move to the Minnesota Timberwolves in 2023, Conley’s bond with Memphis has remained strong.
In a 2019 interview, Conley expressed deep gratitude for Memphis, stating, “Memphis made me… That city helped groom us into who we are.” His sentiments resonate with many fans who view him as the embodiment of professionalism and dedication. A Reddit user remarked, “He is the embodiment of professionalism… Just a great human being too.”
