"During a week that has seen the Grizzlies franchise take a significant step forward with its first-ever
postseason victory, it is incredibly meaningful for this organization to be able to take another by ensuring that Zach Randolph will continue to play on Beale Street for many years to come," said Chris Wallace, Grizzlies general manager in a statement.

Taken in the first round of the 2001 draft by the Portland Trail Blazers, Randolph has been one of the NBA's most consistent performers, averaging of 17.6 points, 9.2 rebounds and 1.7 assists in a 10-year career that has also included brief stints with New York Knicks and Los Angeles Clippers.
