MEMPHIS – The real punches won’t land for another month.

“Right now, it’s just conditioning and training,” Chandler Parsons explained through a wide grin on Wednesday. “If I got in there and really started sparring now, I’d probably get knocked out.”

Among the many regimens Parsons has endured in recent months to recover from a third knee surgery and whip his body back into condition has been a boxing workout. The Grizzlies’ forward enters the ring about three times a week in Los Angeles and laces up the trunks and gloves.
