Memphis Grizzles point guard Mike Conley is one of the nicest guys on the court as evidenced by the fact that he doesn’t have a single technical foul on his record in his 10-year NBA career.
Turns out he’s a great person off the hardwood, too.
Conley purchased 500 tickets ahead of the Grizzles’ playoff game against the Spurs on Thursday as a way to thank the Memphis fans for their continued support.
His plan was to hand tickets out on a first-come, first serve basis after the Grizzles’ practice on Wednesday. As you can see, word spread quickly.

Clearly, he’s a fan favorite for good reason. Think he can talk any NFL players into doing the same thing for the Super Bowl?
