Three years ago, Dillon Brooks was believed to be one of the foundational pieces of the Grizzlies’ rebuild. Now according to The Athletic, he’s been informed that he will not be brought back “under any circumstances.”

The Memphis Grizzlies have informed pending free agent Dillon Brooks that he will not be brought back under any circumstances, league sources say.
