Jonas Valanciunas says that his Memphis Grizzlies team is ready to pick up where they left off

Jonas Valanciunas has found time to go fishing every day since he's been in the NBA's bubble campus in Orlando but understands that he is not on vacation.  He is ready to get back in action and take care of some unfinished business.

"It definitely is," said Valanciunas.  "We came in with the mindset of getting ready, practicing hard, and getting back what we had.  It's been five months since we stepped on the court so it's going to take a while but we are ready.  Everybody is healthy. It's good to see all of the guys ready and healthy. Practicing and getting their memories together and being better than we were before."
