Thabeet highest pick ever to be sent to D-League
The Memphis Grizzlies are sending No. 2 overall pick Hasheem Thabeet down for a stint in the D-League.
The move has not yet been announced, but two sources close to the situation on Thursday confirmed Thabeet's impending D-League assignment to the Dakota Wizards to ESPN.com.
Thabeet will thus become the highest draft pick ever sent to the D-League by an NBA team. Players can only be assigned to D-League duty by their NBA teams during their first two seasons as a pro.-espn.com

Saw that one coming.
He had a pretty good college career, but any time a big center could get his body into him and negate those gangly arms, he was neutralized. I couldn’t believe he was rated so highly. I certainly couldn’t believe the Grizz wasted their #2 on him.
