The Memphis Grizzlies today announced the team signed center Bismack Biyombo.
A 12-year NBA veteran, Biyombo (6-8, 255) has played 799 career regular season games (324 starts) for Charlotte, Toronto, Orlando, and Phoenix and has averaged 5.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks in 19.5 minutes while shooting 53.3% from the field.
He also has appeared in 40 career playoff games (11 starts), contributing to the Raptors’ run to the Eastern Conference Finals in 2016 and helping the Suns advance to the Western Conference Semifinals in each of the past two seasons.
