Walter Clayton Jr.

Micah Peavy's ankle injury will keep him out of camp, leaving him a likely cut as Memphis trims from 18 standard contracts to 15, according to Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.

AK Okereke signed a Lakers two-way deal after going undrafted, but LakeShowLife's Svyatoslav Rovenchuk predicts he'll be cut before opening night. The reasoning ties back to Memphis, where Bleacher Report's Jake Fischer expects the Grizzlies to waive several players to get under the roster limit.

Memphis has to get from 19 contracts down to 15 before Opening Night Eve on October 19, and Jake Fischer reports Walter Clayton Jr. has a good chance of surviving those cuts. Fischer names Jordan Hawkins, Kris Murray and Micah Peavy as players facing varying risk.

Jake Fischer said on his Bleacher Report stream that Jordan Hawkins, newly dealt from New Orleans to Memphis, is likely to get a real look at a roster spot. Memphis carries 19 players for 15 spots, and Fischer flagged D'Angelo Russell, Kris Murray, Walter Clayton Jr. and Micah Peavy as most at risk if Hawkins sticks.

Jake Fischer reports Memphis is expected to waive four of Jordan Hawkins, Micah Peavy, D'Angelo Russell, Walter Clayton Jr. and Kris Murray to get to 15 players.

Memphis sent Jaren Jackson Jr., John Konchar, Jock Landale and Vince Williams Jr. to Utah, per the official transaction record.

Utah has signed Walter Clayton Jr. to a multi-year contract. No terms disclosed.
