GREENBURGH, N.Y. (AP) -Xavier Henry slipped on a blue Memphis Grizzlies jersey with his name and the No. 13 on it.
Still to be determined is if he will wear it in games.
The first-round pick still hasn’t signed his contract, with the Grizzlies not willing to guarantee the maximum salary allowable under the rookie scale.
Teams can pay players up to 120 percent of their scale amount, which this season is about $1.7 million for the No. 12 pick. However, the Grizzlies would like to tie the extra 20 percent to bonuses.
So the swingman from Kansas remains unsigned, saying Tuesday he is working out, but otherwise just waiting for a call and isn’t sure what will happen.
