Memphis Grizzlies general manager Zach Kleiman has responded to recent speculation that the team could trade Ja Morant, relaying a clear vision of the organization's plans for their star guard.
“I can’t blame other 'executives' for fantasizing about us trading Ja, but it’s just that—fantasy," he said in a statement to The Daily Memphian's Drew Hill. "We are not trading Ja. Continue to underestimate Ja, this team and this city, and we will let our performance on the floor speak for itself. I’m not going to give this nonsense further oxygen and look forward to getting back to basketball.”
