Adriana Lima No Longer A Memphis Grizzlies Fan

Marko Jaric, husband of Victoria’s Secret supermodel Adriana Lima, mutually agreed with the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday to seek other opportunities.
That was the polite version of the Grizzlies’ decision to part ways with Jaric, a seven-year NBA veteran.
Grizzlies officials said Jaric will not join the team for training camp and the preseason, and have given permission for Jaric’s agent to seek a roster spot with another team.
“With the offseason additions of Allen Iverson, Marcus Williams and Sam Young, our backcourt has become crowded,” Grizzlies General Manager and Vice President of Basketball Operations Chris Wallace said.
“Therefore, we have agreed with Marko Jaric and his representatives that he is permitted to seek out another situation that will provide him with a better opportunity to play. Marko is a proven NBA player and is deserving of such an opportunity.”
Jaric owns career averages of 7.1 points, 2.7 rebounds and 3.6 assists in 25.2 minutes in 447 games with the Los Angeles Clippers, Minnesota Timberwolves and last season with the Grizzlies.
Memphis acquired the 6-7, 224-pound guard, along with the draft rights to O.J. Mayo, Greg Buckner and Antoine Walker in exchange for the draft rights to Kevin Love, Mike Miller, Brian Cardinal and Jason Collins on June 26, 2008.
Jaric was originally selected by the Clippers in the second round of the 2000 NBA Draft and played six years professionally in Europe before making his NBA debut in 2002.
Adriana Lima may not be a fan of the Memphis Grizzlies any longer, but we’re still a big fan of hers. Check out this photo gallery of Adriana Lima when we wished her a happy birthday in June.

Me and you both. She’s about to drop their first kid. Once she does, probably will start to see her modeling again.
