Memphis Grizzlies Nab Warrick at 16

In the NBA Draft tonight, the Grizzlies snatched up Harrim Warrick out of Syracuse at the 16th draft pick. Here is what ESPN writer Chad Ford had to say about it...

A really good pick for Memphis here. They are going to lose Stromile Swift to free agency this summer and Warrick should be able to come in and replace Swift. Sort of. He can't play center like Swift, nor is he a shot blocker. But he's just as athletic and plays much, much harder than Swift does. I'm not sure what position he plays or defends, but he's a hard worker who got better every year in school. He's not the answer to all of Memphis' problems, but it's a start.

As the Grizzlies begin the restructuring of the team this summer, it will be interesting to see what General manager Jerry West has up his sleeve. GO GRIZZLIES!
