I like the Vancouver Grizzles. They are from Canada and play basketball
I've never heard of them.  Only basketball team from Canada that I know of is the Toronto Rapters.
Yes, they were actually created in 1995, along with the Raptors. NBA was trying to expand in Canada.
Interesting Fact.  Fred VanVleet is an extended family member from our hometown, Rockford, IL.  Who is your favorite player?
Shareef Abdur-Rahim was pretty good. He started in 1996
Have you ever been to Canada or seen  a Canadian team play live?
I haven't, but Vancouver Grizzlies actually relocated to Memphis, TN and are now known as the Memphis Grizzles. My state!
I've heard of the Memphis Grizzlies, but didn't now they were originally from Vancouver.  I have family members in Memphis.
