MEMPHIS – It’s simply another tough break for the Memphis Grizzlies. There’s no other way to frame this one. It’s literally a tough break with news that shooting guard Ben McLemore, the Grizzlies’ top free-agent acquisition this summer, underwent successful surgery Tuesday after being diagnosed with a non-displaced fracture of the fifth metatarsal in his right foot during an offseason training session late last week in California. According to team officials, McLemore was playing in a pick-up game when he inadvertently stepped on another player’s foot. In other words, McLemore was doing his normal preparation to get himself ready for training camp workouts.
