According to RealGM's Shams Charania, Luke Hancock's dream of playing in the NBA may be closer than it's ever been before.

Luke Hancock -- NCAA champion at Louisville -- has agreed to a 1-year, minimum deal with the Memphis Grizzlies, league sources tell RealGM. — Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) September 1, 2014

Considering the fact that the Grizzlies already have 14 players on their current roster with guaranteed contracts, it's likely that Hancock's deal is non-guaranteed. Still, he'll camp with the Grizzlies and get another shot to turn some serious heads.

If Hancock does wind up making a roster, he'll be one of the least-surprised people in the basketball world.

"I'm going to make the NBA," Hancock told ESPN 680's Drew Deene back in July. "I can play. I just need to be able to guard two guards and three men in the NBA. They're fast. They're athletic, so I've got a lot of work to do."
