Mike Conley has spent his entire career with the Memphis Grizzlies since being selected by the franchise as the fourth overall pick of the 2007 NBA draft. Conley has been a solid performer in Memphis during his decade with the team, although the point guard has never established himself as the All-Star that many believed that he would eventually develop into.

Nevertheless, Conley is receiving the salary of an All-Star, as back in 2015, Conley signed a 5 year, $153 million deal, which at the time was the biggest contract in NBA history. The 31-year-old's contract still has two years left to run, and Conley will earn a staggering $34 million for the 20/21 season. Ultimately, Conley has been an excellent servant to the Grizzlies, however, the franchise evidently needs to move on his contract in order to usher in a new era.
