As for the future of Iguodala, the Grizzlies "do not intend to give [him] a buyout before the season and are actively exploring the trade market for the former Finals MVP," per ESPN's Tim MacMahon. A number of contenders would surely have serious interest in Iguodala if he was bought out, though to this point it appears the Grizzlies continue to seek out trade partners.

The Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks are among his potential suitors, per MacMahon.
