Grizzlies: Waived G Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.

The Memphis Grizzlies, currently 25–57 and sitting at #13 in the Western Conference, have released guard Kentavious Caldwell‑Pope. The move comes as the team struggles with a five‑game losing streak within an eight‑game slide and a net rating of –5.9, indicating a broader effort to adjust the roster amid a difficult season.

Caldwell‑Pope, who is listed with the Philadelphia 76ers, posted averages of 8.4 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.7 assists over 51 games, shooting 41.0% from the field. He is on a day‑to‑day injury report following right‑finger surgery, with an expected return date of October 1, 2026. His availability will be a factor for any team considering adding him, and his next steps will likely depend on his health and the interest of clubs looking for veteran depth.
