The 2016–17 Memphis Grizzlies season was the 22nd season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA). On May 7, 2016, the Memphis Grizzlies fired Dave Joerger after the team was swept in the first round of the playoffs.[1] On May 29, 2016, David Fizdale was hired as the head coach.[2]

The Grizzlies finished the regular season with a 43–39 record, securing the 7th seed. In the playoffs, they faced off against the San Antonio Spurs in the First Round, where they lost in six games. Following the season, Zach Randolph signed as a free agent with the Sacramento Kings, along with Vince Carter. Tony Allen also left the team following the season, signing with the New Orleans Pelicans as a free agent.

Until the 2020-21 NBA season, this marked the last time the Grizzlies made the playoffs.
