Grizzlies to re-sign Hamed Haddadi

TEHRAN,July 28(MNA)--The Grizzlies are expected to re-sign Hamed Haddadi to a multi-year contract extension. Haddadi, a 7'2" center, has spent his entire NBA career with the Grizzlies, though he's never been a major part of the team's rotation. In four seasons, Haddadi has appeared in just 121 contests, averaging 2.1 PPG, 2.2 RPG, and 0.5 BPG in 6.1 MPG, according to Rotoworld Because the Grizzlies hold Haddadi's Bird Rights, the club doesn't necessarily have to sign him to a minimum-salary deal, though he's unlikely to get much more than that. Last December, the 27-year-old agreed to a one-year, $1.3MM contract to remain in Memphis.
