The Philadelphia 76ers have interest in trading for Tyreke Evans.

Evans signed a one-year, $3.3 million contract with the Memphis Grizzlies in the offseason, which he has easily outperformed. Evans is averaging 19.5 points, 5.0 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game.

The Grizzlies are seeking a first round pick for Evans, which the 76ers are reluctant to part with.

Adrian Wojnarowski reports the Grizzlies will sit Evans until he's traded or until after the deadline.

The Memphis Grizzlies may have approached Chandler Parsons about a potential injury retirement.

Parsons has only played in 26 games this season and could miss the remainder of the season due to recurring knee issues.

Parsons strongly denied the report on Twitter.

with tweets like this, you’ll retire before me. #FakeNews https://t.co/ETQjptklcL

Parsons signed a four-year, $94 million contract with the Grizzlies in 2016.

Mike Conley will undergo season-ending surgery on his left heel.

The surgery will "smooth a small bone protrusion" in his left heel.

Chris Wallace announced the surgery in an email sent Saturday to Grizzlies season-ticket holders.

"Mike has been extremely diligent as we pursued multiple different approaches to alleviate the pain before deciding surgery was the best solution," Wallace's email read.

Conley appeared in just 12 games this season.

The Memphis Grizzlies have agreed to sign Myke Henry to a two-way contract.

Henry has been playing for the Oklahoma City Blue of the G-League.

Mike Conley Jr. was asked for his opinion on the state of the Memphis Grizzlies now that they've struggled during the 17-18 season and fired David Fizdale.

"It’s different, man," said Conley. "At the beginning of the season we had so much optimism with how it started. Now, everything has been flipped. It’s been a 180 [-degree turn] with the way we’ve been playing, the coaching changes and things like that. It’s different, but we have to keep plugging away."

Conley was also asked how he took the firing of Fizdale.

"It was tough, man. He did a lot for each individual guy. He did a lot for me and my game. There is nothing new that has not been already said about him. But he’s a great guy, and we just wish him the best."

Marc Gasol was widely blamed for Fizdale's firing and Conley was asked if he spoke with his longtime Memphis teammate about it.

"We talked. I think Marc’s intentions are solely about the team. He didn’t want any of this to happen. I didn’t think so. It was also frustrating for all of us. It was tough for Marc, myself and probably the older guys on the team who have built this foundation to see the state that we are in."
