Why former star UNC big man Armando Bacot is shooting 3s with Memphis Hustle of G League
Posted Jan 17, 2025
Armando Bacot signed with the Memphis Grizzlies as an undrafted free agent in 2024 but was released at the end of training camp. He caught on with the Hustle of the G League and has averaged 18.2 points and 10.4 rebounds per game. Bacot was known as an elite rebounder. But the shooting is a new wrinkle that could make him an NBA prospect.
