Iguodala, who is currently the Vice President of the Players Association, did not suit up for a single game for the Grizzlies following being shipped from the Golden State Warriors as part of the deal that saw the Warriors acquire D’Angelo Russell.
In joining the Heat, Iguodala will feature alongside all-stars Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo as the team, currently sitting fourth in the Eastern Conference, attempts to make a meaningful challenge to the Milwaukee Bucks.
So far, the Grizzlies are known to be receiving Justise Winslow as part of their trade package, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
