NBA Memphis Grizzlies in Internet
| The Grizzlies were initially composed of players taken from other teams via an expansion draft and the Grizzlies' first draft pick, Bryant Reeves.<br />They were hampered by the NBA's decision to deny the Raptors and Grizzlies a shot at one of the top five picks in the draft—a reaction to the Orlando Magic snagging Shaquille O'Neal and Penny Hardaway in consecutive drafts and going to the NBA Finals in only their sixth year of existence.<br />The Grizzlies' first home arena was the newly built General Motors Place.<br />Although they won their first two games in franchise history, the Grizzlies finished with the worst win/loss record in the 1995–96 season, as is typical for an expansion team, and lost 23 straight games from February to April (setting an NBA single-season record now shared with the Denver Nuggets; the overall record of 24 is still held by the Cleveland Cavaliers).<br />In 1996, the Grizzlies drafted Shareef Abdur-Rahim as the third overall pick.<br />However, the Grizzlies continued to struggle and finished with the worst record in the league.
