Grizzlies all-star Randolph wants to remain in Memphis — but at a price
Posted by GameSetMatch on 14th April 2010
If the Grizzlies already have an idea of what Zach Randolph is worth in the future, they aren’t saying.
So team owner Michael Heisley had no reaction to Randolph’s recent assertion that he’s worthy of a contract extension similar to the three-year, $57 million deal that former Griz Pau Gasol signed with the Los Angeles Lakers earlier this season.
However, Heisley agreed with his All-Star forward on at least one point: Randolph should remain in a Grizzlies uniform beyond the 2010-11 season when his current deal expires.
“I have every intention of talking to him,” Heisley said. “Whether or not we get something done I can’t say. I think he has found a home. He’s perfect for Memphis. And Memphis is perfect for him. I hope we can work something out.”
Randolph told AOL Fanhouse on Monday that a starting point for potential contract negotiations should be in line with what Gasol received.
