Jazz sign Walter Clayton Jr. to multi-year deal

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.

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.
