Wayne Selden Jr. was a pretty good player for the Kansas Jayhawks the last three years and he is trying to take the next step in his career. It looks like he will be doing just that as it was reported that he will sign with the Memphis Grizzlies soon.
Basketball Insiders’ Alex Kennedy reported that Selden is expected to sign with the Grizzlies and should be ready for training camp and the regular season. He will miss the summer league due to surgery that took place at the end of the Jayhawks’ season.
