Something went wrong.
Based on Taylor Jenkins' comments about "all 17 guys" working in practice - and seeing glimpses of them in videos/photos - it appears that Grayson Allen and, more interestingly, March signing Jontay Porter, are participating in workouts. A healthy Porter would be a nice bonus.
De'Anthony Melton lauds the @Memphis Grizzlies performance team for keeping everyone ready despite the long hiatus.
It’s already been a busy day at GBB, but @JoeMullinax is back with you now for today’s media availability. Another day in the bubble for the Grizzlies, hopefully another day of good health and good growth for the squad.

It’s 9:01. You know what that means.
Time to announce the evolution of Grizzly Bear Blues.
Curious what happens to "Hail to the Redskins," which might be the best NFL fight song out there.
From blue collars to silver spoons, the next generation of the Grizzlies is sounding more and more like the last. But the legend of Ja Morant has the potential to be the greatest sports story ever told in Memphis. grizzlybearblues.com/2020/7/13/2132… pic.twitter.com/aIyFuxih41
Kind words are like honey— sweet to the soul and healthy for the body.

Finally watched @HamiltonMusical ... yeah, it’s that spectacular.
Monday mornings can be a drag. To offset that, we feel some good news coming on.
We announce the next step of the evolution of Grizzy Bear Blues tomorrow starting at 9:01 CT. See you there. pic.twitter.com/hcHH7Vn0jg

Taylor Jenkins notes that one of the big challenges is the constant variances in schedule when dealing with timing of meals, testing, training, etc. but says the NBA has kept everyone well-informed and organized.
Taylor Jenkins says that everyone was full participation in today's practice.
Josh Jackson forgot to pack his iPad for Orlando. Whoops. Says his mom is sending it to him.
Josh Jackson admitted that he forgot to pack his iPad for the Orlando bubble. His mom will ship that to him along with some other stuff.
Common comment from every Grizz player that's done a media availability is the spirit of camaraderie with this team.
Dillon Brooks admitted there was some rust to be knocked off to start, but lauded the @Memphis Grizzlies training and coaching staff for how they've laid out the Orlando camp.
Coach Jenkins and a few players will be speaking to the media shortly. @PAKA_FLOCKA will be on the call for us
Let’s all wish @thefishnation a happy birthday! pic.twitter.com/ADlhtp88bO
If you listen to constructive criticism, you will be at home among the wise. If you reject discipline, you only harm yourself; but if you listen to correction, you grow in understanding.

Can’t give a bird no ring this ain’t the super bowl
Joe Johnson playing in the TBT is not fair!!!
The Grizzlies played 5 on 5 basketball today, according to Taylor Jenkins. I almost teared up when he said it.
Jaren Jackson Jr on the bubble: "I got my PS4. I'm good."
Jaren says "I've got my PS4. I'm good" when asked about been quarantined.
Jaren Jackson says @Memphis Grizzlies might be more focused right now than at any other time this season.

I’m developing a new skill out here in Orlando. The ability to identify someone from their eyes up 😂 😂😂 instagram.com/p/CCfBEchDARq/…
So @Ja Morant says he's "Ramen Noodles guy." Why that's an edge for the Grizz. Column: dailymemphian.com/subscriber/sec…
Bubble life resembles dorm life, albeit a solitary variety, as Grizzlies settle in Orlando - dailymemphian.com//section/sport…
Big takeaways from @Memphis Grizzlies media availability:
1. NBA has strict protocols that players/coaches have been fine with.
2. Food hasn’t been an issue.
3. Players glad to (finally) get out of their rooms.
4. Retention of strategic concepts from season has been high.
No complaining from @jamorant who says, “I’m a Ramen Noodles guy.”
Ja Morant brought a PS4, Martin to watch on TV and, in case the silver spoon quote didn't get the point across, declares he's "a ramen noodle guy."
Ja Morant: "My room is fine. The food is fine. I'm not a silver spoon guy."
Hi everyone, @JoeMullinax here with you for the first Grizzlies media availability since the team arrived in the bubble. Hopefully not too many questions get asked about boxed salads and cockroaches.

Remember when @JoeMullinax spent hundreds of words breaking down Elsa from Frozen being the missing piece for Memphis in the Disney bubble? Were you wondering where Robin Hood, Mickey Mouse, Moana and others wound up? The @SBNationNBA Disney draft is live!

The NBA bubble has already proven to be kind of weird, but @J_Timberfake_ shares how it could get even weirder grizzlybearblues.com/2020/7/10/2130… pic.twitter.com/E80Nk4ABQP
The “replacement player” option is a great way for some G-League guys to prove they belong in the league. The @MemphisHustle have a few players that could make the most of that potential opportunity grizzlybearblues.com/2020/7/10/2131… pic.twitter.com/szupjBx8ln
