Every basketball journey has its own unique detail to it. For De’Anthony Melton, his story shows that if you stay focused, good things happen. A SoCal kid, De’Anthony went to nearby USC, but played just one season in two years. Then after being drafted by the Rockets, he was traded to the Suns before his rookie season started.

His two-way talent got him minutes, but his ability to lock in on defense and basketball IQ kept him on the court. What Penny has seen in De’Anthony is improvement and consistency year-over-year throught his young career. His fit as a backcourt mate of Ja Morant is one the Grizzlies can build the new version of Memphis Grit and Grind on. By making Memphis his home, De’Anthony is flourishing before our eyes...and only getting better.
