Report: Grizzlies trade C Jay Huff to Pacers

The Memphis Grizzlies are trading center Jay Huff to the Indiana Pacers for one second-round pick and one second-round swap, according to ESPN.

Huff has spent time with the Los Angeles Lakers, Washington Wizards, Denver Nuggets, and Grizzlies in his four-year NBA career. Last season, he established himself as a solid stretch five in Memphis, shooting an impressive 40.5 percent from deep.

The 7'1" big man averaged 6.9 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 0.9 blocks in 11.7 minutes per game.

The Pacers gain a needed reinforcement in the frontcourt after they lost center Myles Turner to the Milwaukee Bucks in free agency. Huff adds depth behind current center options Isaiah Jackson and Tony Bradley.

Huff, a member of the University of Virginia's 2018 national championship squad, has three years worth approximately $8 million left on his current deal; the final year is a club option.
