How the Memphis Grizzlies can fix their backup point guard situation

Ever since Mike Conley became a starter, the Memphis Grizzlies haven’t had a solid backup point guard. In the early stages of his career, he had to rely on Kyle Lowry and Marcus Williams. He had to get breaks from guys on the back-end of their careers such as Jason Williams, Gilbert Arenas and Jamaal Tinsley. He had a promising backup in Grievis Vasquez, but the Grizzlies traded him after his rookie year. Then, the Grizzlies had production from steady veterans like Jerryd Bayless, Beno Udrih and Mario Chalmers, but trades, injuries and age limited them from being long-term options.
