The once up and comer Jordan Bell has now rode a crazy transaction carousel this 2019-2020 season.
The Memphis Grizzlies waive the former Golden State Warriors and Minnesota Timberwolves forward according to reports. Bell played an integral role during the Warriors' 2018 championship run.
He was a key piece of an NBA Finals-winning team that dominated the league in the tail end of the 2010s.
Grizzlies waive Jordan Bell
Bell turned down a qualifying offer from the Warriors this past summer and chose to sign with the Minnesota Timberwolves in free agency.
The Timberwolves traded him to the Houston Rockets in the trade deadline for Robert Covington, then he was sent to the Grizzlies the following day for Bruno Caboclo and a future second-round pick.
The Grizzlies would then waive Bell to clear some cap space to sign Anthony Tolliiver, who was bought out by the Sacramento Kings on Saturday.
Bell reuniting with the Warriors?
Judging by the fact that the Warriors made a qualifying offer during the offseason is because they want to have the big man in their rotation. The team is short-handed at the moment with injuries to its stars.
Bell is already familiar with the Warriors organization and will likely pick up where he left off shall a reunion happen. The big man is on an all time low with averages of 3.2 points and 2.8 rebounds in 29 games this season.
Perhaps a reunion with the Warriors may help him find his confidence again.
Will an NBA team sign Jordan Bell before the season ends? Can he find his place in a rotation again? Leave a comment and tell us your thoughts.
