Grizzlies' Jake LaRavia: Won't have option picked up
The Memphis Grizzlies are interested in retaining Jake LaRavia beyond this season, but the team won't pick up his option for the 2025-26 campaign, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.Hill notes that the club is pleased with LaRavia's development. However, Memphis also has 12 players under contract for the 2025-26 campaign and would like to hold onto as much roster flexibility as possible. This could very well be a make-or-break year for the former first-round pick out of Wake Forest, who averaged 10.8 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 35 regular-season games (six starts) a season ago.

Grizzlies' Jake LaRavia: Productive off bench Monday
Jake LaRavia finished with 17 points (7-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-5 FT), nine rebounds and five assists across 31 minutes during Monday's 126-123 loss to Chicago.With Ja Morant (thigh) sidelined, LaRavia surpassed the 25-minute mark off the bench for the first time this season, and the former Wake Forest standout made the most of the opportunity. This was the first time he scored in double digits in 2024-25, and although LaRavia has proven he can be a productive player when given enough minutes, he's not expected to see a significant role with the Memphis Grizzlies as long as the core players are healthy.
