The Memphis Grizzlies will pursue Chandler Parsons in free agency while also attempting to re-sign Mike Conley. The Los Angeles Lakers are also interested in Parsons, as are the Orlando Magic.

Chris Haynes of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports the Portland Trail Blazers will also meet with Parsons. Portland will meet with Parsons in Los Angeles on July 1st with Damian Lillard in attendance.

Parsons is seeking a max contract on the open market and the Dallas Mavericks have appeared unwilling to offer that significant of a contract.

Parsons had injury issues in each of his two seasons with the Mavericks after leaving the Houston Rockets in 2014.

The Grizzlies face serious competition for Conley from the Mavericks.

The Houston Rockets, Memphis Grizzlies and New York Knicks are interested in pursuing Eric Gordon in free agency.

The Pelicans also have interest in re-signing Gordon, who has had injury issues over the past few seasons.

Gordon is coming off a four-year, $58 million deal signed in 2012.

The Dallas Mavericks have secured a meeting with Mike Conley for July 1st.

Dallas has made Conley one of their top priorities in free agency.

The Memphis Grizzlies can sign Conley to a five-year deal while rival teams like the Mavericks can only offer four-year deals. Conley is seeking the fifth year from the Grizzlies.

The Mavericks largely played Deron Williams and J.J. Barea at point guard last season.

The Houston Rockets, New Orleans Pelicans, Brooklyn Nets and Los Angeles Lakers are also interested in Conley.

The Atlanta Hawks would like to re-sign Kent Bazemore but he'll receive significant interest in free agency.

The Milwaukee Bucks, Memphis Grizzlies and Brooklyn Nets are three teams that will pursue Bazemore.

Bazemore has emerged as a productive two-way wing over the past two seasons with the Hawks.

Bazemore began his career with the Golden State Warriors.

The Memphis Grizzlies have declined their option on the contract of Lance Stephenson for the 16-17 season.

Stephenson was acquired by the Grizzlies from the Los Angeles Clippers at the deadline.

Memphis decided to let Stephenson become an unrestricted free agent to maximize their cap space as they work to retain Mike Conley.

The Grizzlies have some level of interest in re-signing Stephenson as well as from other teams.

In 26 games, he averaged 14.2 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.8 assists while shooting 47.4 percent from the field.

The Memphis Grizzlies have claimed Tony Wroten off waivers.

Wroten was released by the New York Knicks when they acquired Derrick Rose via trade.

Wroten signed with the Knicks towards the end of the season and did not appear in any games.

The Grizzlies drafted Wroten in the first round of the 2012 NBA Draft out of Washington.

The Boston Celtics have traded the 31st and 35th overall picks to the Memphis Grizzlies for the draft rights to the Los Angeles Clippers' pick in 2019.

The Grizzlies acquired the Clippers' first rounder as part of the Jeff Green for Lance Stephenson trade.

Memphis selected Deyonta Davis out of Michigan State with the initial second round pick.

The Dallas Mavericks expect to be granted a meeting with Hassan Whiteside in the opening hours of free agency.

The Mavericks are targeting Whiteside and Mike Conley as they attempt to remain competitive in the final seasons of Dirk Nowitzki's career.

Whiteside and Conley are both expected to command maximum contracts, prices that sources say the Mavs are prepared to pay.

The Mavericks and San Antonio Spurs are among the teams that would interest Conley. Conley's interest in the Mavericks is in large part due to his respect for Rick Carlisle.

The Memphis Grizzlies have grown concerned about the possibility of Mike Conley leaving in free agency.

Conley can sign up to a five-year, $124 million max contract with the Grizzlies, while rival teams can max him out on a four-year, $92 million deal.

The Grizzlies plan on using a video featuring part-owner Justin Timberlake as part of their recruiting pitch to Conley.

Marc Gasol re-signed with the Grizzlies last offseason and didn't even take meetings with rival clubs.
