Mike Conley bought 500 playoff tickets for Grizzlies fans

A thoughtful gesture by Conley.

Last summer, Mike Conley signed the biggest contract in NBA history to date. The deal was worth $153 million over five years. And if you’ve seen any of the Grizzlies games during the playoffs, you’re already aware that his contract is always a topic of discussion.

What does someone do with all that money? For one, you buy your fans tickets to the playoffs. Conley purchased 500 tickets for Thursday’s game against the San Antonio Spurs, the team’s first home game in the 2017 playoffs, and the team will raffle them off on Wednesday.

If you want to grab a couple of these tickets — there is a two-ticket limit per person — you can head to FedExForum at 12:30 pm. This is a great gesture from Conley for the fans in Memphis. FedExForum seats 18,119 fans.

Good luck to everyone trying to get a ticket.
