Former Portland Trail Blazers forward Rayan Rupert will stay with the Memphis Grizzlies for the remainder of the 2025-26 NBA season on an official two-way contract. The Grizzlies had previously signed Rupert to a 10-day deal. This move secures him for the stretch run of their current campaign.
Shams Charania of ESPN [reported the news](https://x.com/ShamsCharania/status/2029277547549126925):
Ruper t averaged 2.9 points and 1.8 rebounds in 12.0 minutes per game over 48 appearances for the Blazers this year. He was waived to make room for Sidy Cissoko to join the full-time roster, converting Cissoko’s own two-way deal in the process.
Rupert has averaged 10.4 points and 5.8 rebounds in 26.8 minutes per game for the Grizzlies in the five games he’s played for them so far.
