Free agent big man Brandan Wright is reportedly headed to Memphis—the Grizzlies have come to terms with the 27-year-old on a three-year pact worth roughly $18 million.
Wright played for the Dallas Mavericks, Boston Celtics and Phoenix Suns last season.
Per Yahoo! Sports:
The Grizzlies used their full midlevel exception to sign him.
At 6-foot-10, Wright gives the Grizzlies a long, athletic forward who should be an upgrade over Kosta Koufos. Wright delivers another frontline weapon with a lineup that includes Zach Randolph and the likely return of All-Star center Marc Gasol.
Wright is from Nashville, Tenn., and was the eighth overall pick of the 2007 NBA draft out of North Carolina.
