The Memphis Grizzlies are planning to sign center Charles Bassey via the hardship exception, sources told ESPN on Sunday night.
The Grizzlies currently have Ty Jerome, Scotty Pippen Jr., Brandon Clarke and Zach Edey sidelined for extended periods, clearing way for a 10-day hardship signing.
Bassey has played four NBA seasons with the San Antonio Spurs and Philadelphia 76ers and spent the last three years with the Spurs.
Bassey, who turns 25 on Tuesday, averaged 4.5 points, 9.0 rebounds and 2.5 blocks in a strong preseason performance with the Atlanta Hawks.
