Head coach David Fizdale confirmed on Sunday that Chandler Parsons will be coming off the bench this season. Fizdale views Parsons as more of a power forward than a small forward, so it sounds like he'll predominantly be operating as JaMychal Green's backup this season, which will probably put his minutes in the mid-20s on most nights. In other news, Parsons, who was away from the team due to a personal matter on Friday was back with the club for Sunday's practice and he'll be fine for the regular season opener.
hard to believe that portions already turns 29 only 10 days from now. his prime just left him so easily
Parsons probably would rather injure himself again and collect his checks than embarrass himself this season.
He really, really sucked in Preseason too. I wonder If he will ever get his game back. He is one lucky dude. Played a couple seasons of decent basketball, and like 20 games of really, really good basketball, and now he is a hundred millionaire.
I wish they would waive him and take the loss. It was a dumb move, but thats the grizzlies. They havent made a good move sincw they got thw core 4 together. Not one move has been good since then.
Parsons couldn't be happier to be coming off the bench. Less exertion and he still gets the same paycheck. Win-win.
