#3 Tyreke Evans agrees to deal with Indiana Pacers

There was a lot of trade talk last February, surrounding the Memphis Grizzlies and at what price they were ready to let go of Tyreke Evans. Well, eventually, they didn't deal him and have let him walk.

It's clearly the Grizzlies loss as the 2009 Rookie of the Year received a huge payday. He went from a $3.3 million deal with the Grizzlies last year to $12 million for the 2018-19 season. The only real player that the Pacers lost was Lance Stephenson, who agreed to a deal with the Lakers, and as a replacement, they get Evans who is certainly better than the former.

Not a bad move at all.
