The Grizzlies have signed DeJon Jarreau to a 10-day contract, the team announced (via Twitter).

The 28-year-old shooting guard also played for Memphis in March of 2024 on a pair of 10-day contracts. He got into nine games and averaged 4.8 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.9 assists in 16.7 minutes per night. In addition, Jarreau appeared in one game with Indiana on a two-way contract during the 2021/22 season.

Jarreau signed an Exhibit 10 deal with Memphis in October and was waived the same day. He wound up with the team’s G League affiliate, the Memphis Hustle, where he posted 15.2 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.1 assists in 19 games, making seven starts. He’s a G League veteran, compiling 63 total regular season games with the Fort Wayne Mad Ants, Texas Legends and Capital City Go-Go as well as Memphis.

He went undrafted in 2021 after four seasons in college and was named American Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year for 2020/21 at Houston.

It’s not specified in the announcement, but this appears to be another hardship deal for the Grizzlies, who signed Tyler Burton to a 10-day contract on Thursday using the hardship exception. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (finger) and Zach Edey (ankle) both underwent season-ending surgeries, and nine other players are listed on the injury report for tonight’s game at Detroit.
