MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The Memphis Grizzlies will be wearing a "GB" patch on their uniforms the rest of the season in tribute to the late Gene Bartow.

 

(...)The Grizzlies also plan a moment of silence for Bartow before tipoff. Bartow died Jan. 3 at the age of 81 from stomach cancer. Bartow had been president of the company that owns the NBA's Memphis Grizzlies and the FedExForum, and he also was head coach of then-Memphis State when the Tigers lost to UCLA in the 1973 national championship game.
