After this week, we’ll know who the newest Memphis Grizzlies player will be. Maybe Cameron Boozer, maybe Darryn Peterson, maybe not.
We’ll also know potentially what Germantown’s new tax rate will be.
The NBA draft happens Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, with a first round watch party happening Tuesday, June 23, at FedExForum.
Germantown’s final budget vote is expected Monday.
Also, former Governor and Senator Lamar Alexander will be in town, and Memphis Inner City Rugby will host the grand opening of its new pitch.
Bianca Phillips is here to talk about all of it. Join us.
