What It Means:

Finally some resolution to the drama surrounding Parsons. Now with a firm diagnosis, the forward will likely sit out the remainder of the year. Overall it was a disastrous first year in a Memphis uniform for Parsons. Hopefully, he will bounce back in 2017-18. Vince Carter and James Ennis will pick up most of the minutes Parsons was playing.

Parsons posted just 6.2 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 0.7 three-pointers per game while shooting 33.8% from the field.
