After four seasons with the Sacramento Kings, shooting guard Ben McLemore has a new home. According to Adrian Wojnarowski, the 24-year-old wing will join the Memphis Grizzlies on a two-year, $10.7 million deal.

Drafted with the 7th overall selection in the 2013 NBA Draft, McLemore posted 9.4 points and 2.6 rebounds over 293 games, including 216 starts for the Kings. Unfortunately, he played under four coaches in four seasons and never really found his niche with the team.

With the addition of Buddy Hield and the expected signing of Bogdan Bogdanovic, Sacramento chose not to offer the former Kansas Jayhawk a qualifying offer prior to free agency, allowing him to shop himself as an unrestricted free agent.
