The Grizzlies are in Berlin to take on the Magic this week and much of the chatter surrounding the team involves Ja Morant’s trade status.
After a rocky, injury-plagued start to the season in which the star point guard was suspended by Memphis due to a heated disagreement with coach Tuomas Iisalo, Morant’s name is now popping up in trade rumors with under a month to go before the deadline. Last week it was reported the Grizzlies were listening to offers for their franchise star, the first time the team has engaged with other teams in trade talks for Morant. It marks a shocking fall from grace for a player who was once thought to be a future face of the NBA, as well as a key storyline to keep an eye on ahead of the deadline.
