Erick Strickland opted out of his 6-year contract this summer in hopes for getting himself into a better opportunity. He's still waiting for that opportunity to present itself.

The Grizzlies, who have relocated to Memphis, are among a handful of teams Strickland has been talking to this summer. He also worked out for Miami and has talked with Phoenix and Cleveland.

``I'm looking for a situation that fits the way I play the game,'' said Strickland, who averaged just 4.3 points in 28 games with the Grizzlies last season after being traded from the Knicks.
