Conley had been with the Grizzlies since being drafted with the fourth overall pick in the 2007 NBA Draft. During his tenure in Memphis, he led the franchise to its greatest period of success, resulting in seven consecutive playoff appearances from 2011 until 2017 along with a Western Conference finals appearance during the 2012-13 season.

The 31-year-old point guard will now look to elevate the Jazz into being an elite team in the Western Conference heading into the 2019-20 season.
