In a surprising move, free agent guard Ty Jerome has landed a lucrative three-year, $28 million deal with the Memphis Grizzlies, according to sources. After an impressive season as a key bench player for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Jerome caught the attention of teams with his stellar performance, averaging 12.5 points and 3.4 assists while shooting lights-out from the field and beyond the arc. His ability to contribute off the bench not only earned him a significant contract but also solidified his reputation as a rising star in the league.
Negotiated by agents Kieran Piller and Mark Bartelstein of Priority Sports, Jerome's deal with the Grizzlies includes a player option for the third year, providing flexibility for both parties. Despite facing setbacks earlier in his career, including injury woes, Jerome's perseverance and talent have not gone unnoticed, culminating in a well-deserved opportunity to shine in Memphis. As Jerome continues to evolve and make his mark in the NBA, his journey from a draft pick to a sought-after player serves as a testament to his dedication and work ethic on the court.
