The Charlotte Observer is reporting that Seth is going to get a shot, signing with the Grizzlies. Seems he's done really well in the NBDL, averaging 21 points and nearly 8 assists per game - perhaps he's allayed some of the concerns about his injury that kept teams wary early on.
At any rate, I'll be following closely and rooting for him. Go Seth!
Awesome news! Hope he gets a chance to get on the court and show what he can do.
Gee, I saw the thread title and thought that Greenberg was joining Jordan!
Some reports that the Griz are seeking a sharpshooter and are not pleased with the play of Nick Calathes (13.5 mpg, 38.5% shooting, 17% 3PT) and maybe, just maybe Seth will get some minutes.
No guarantees, but rosters, I believe, are set on January 10. Let's hope Seth has a good two weeks.

'When I got on the bus for my first road game at Duke, I saw that every player was carrying textbooks or laptops. I coached in the SEC for 25 years, and I had never seen that before, not even once.' - David Cutcliffe to Duke alumni in Washington, DC, June 2013
This is great news indeed! The Grizzlies have struggling to find floor spacers since the injury to Quincy Pondexter, even recently playing John Leuer extended minutes in search of outside shooting. Hopefully Curry is exactly the man for the job.
I haven't watched any Grizzlies games this year, but looks like they have the lowest percentage of field goal attempts from three-point range of any team in the league (17.0%*). Bodes well for Seth getting a legitimate shot I think.
* This would have been above league average as late as 2001. It's a different game, and Hollinger knows it.
As I always say, I am happy to not need to post in the D League thread for a little while.
Seth has the intangibles that make him a better player than his physical skills lead you to believe.
His mountain is a high climb, but a mini microwave type spot player could help a team like the Grizzlies.
Despite all the clutch shots he always seemed to take and make against the Heels, I always liked his play and how he got the most out of his game.
