First reported contact and visit being set up four days ago, so things are moving fast in Dug’s recruitment.

@AyooFlyy He didn't have a great year at K State but I really think we could revive his career

Memphis G Dug McDaniel (Dug McDaniel) looked like one of the best players on the court in their exhibition against a loaded Arkansas team. 19 PTS 6 AST (3 TO) 3 STL 5-11 FG (3-5 3PT) 6-8 FT It looks like Penny has another gem in the backcourt. McDaniel looked extremely comfortable running the offense and played with great pace. Love what I saw from him all game. Reminiscent of his time at Michigan.

If Memphis wants any chance of pulling off a miracle in the AAC tournament, it needs Dug McDaniel to play his best basketball of the season. Has been playing pretty good ball over the last 5 games, averaging: 21.6 PPG 4.8 AST : 1.8 TO 3.8 REB 54/38/91 shooting splits Need him to continue his efficient shotmaking + above average playmaking for Memphis to win 5 games in 5 days and get the automatic NCAAT bid.

NEW: Maryland transfer 6’9” F Tafara Gapare (Tafara Gapare) wrapped up his visit to Memphis today, he tells me. The former 4⭐️ top-50 recruit adds that he is receiving strong interest from multiple other HMs. Gapare is an elite athlete with very good physical tools. He excels in transition, help-side defense, and has a good catch-radius around the rim. Gapare improved his outside shot significantly shooting 37% last season from 3PT. Would be a very good addition for Memphis this late in the offseason.

🎥 Raheem Mostert on his relationship with Mike McDaniel: "We had a good relationship going into the Dolphins organization, but obviously things kind of flustered and went their own ways... I kind of feel bad for the players because when you have a coach that is so player-friendly, it doesn't really mix all that well." (Herd w/Colin Cowherd) #PhinsUp

NEW: Rider transfer 6’9” 235lb big Tariq Ingraham is set to visit Memphis this week, his agent tells me. Averaged 10.9 PTS 7 REB + 1.5 AST on 54.2% FG shooting last year for Rider. Ingraham just recently received a waiver to be immediately eligible for the 2025-26 season. He is a solid low-post scoring threat with good footwork and touch around the rim. He uses his physicality really well inside and would provide immediate help at the big spot for Memphis.

Rich Paul says if he ran the Lakers, he would call Memphis Grizzlies to trade for Jaren Jackson Jr for a package with Austin Reaves 😳 “If I was the Lakers I would be targeting the Memphis Grizzlies as a trade partner for Jaren Jackson… If you’re building around Luka you need that anchor. Jaren doesn’t want to be apart of a rebuild… if you’re able to trade out expirings and trade the last 1st you got or you can withhold and give up less but this comes with a more unemotional attachment because Austin is beloved. There’s a world you can do what’s best for your team, and what’s best for Austin. Austin deserves to get paid… Memphis would definitely pay Austin. He would become their leading scorer and PG” (Via Game Over Podcast)
