Memphis Grizzlies CEO Jason Levien has effectively squashed rumors of all-star power forward Zach Randolph being moved at the trade deadline.

Teams have been notified of the Grizzlies intentions.

Randolph is averaging 15.7 points and 11.7 rebounds in 35.3 minutes per game.

He is also largely responsible for facilitating Memphis’s offense.

What is interesting is that Levien only mentioned holding on to Randolph through the trade deadline.

Even if he remains a member of the Grizzlies through the deadline, perhaps, this is still Z-Bo’s last season in Memphis.
