It feels like the Ja Morant Era in Memphis could come to a close sometime this NBA season, as the Grizzlies guard has perhaps worn out his welcome and hasn’t been the same star he’s been in previous years. He also sounds pretty unhappy.
So… would the Grizzlies trade him? We came up with some possible trade destinations, and now fans are using the various trade machines and their heads to come up with possible deals that would make sense, even though Morant is owed a sizeable amount of his contract (some $126 million) through 2028. That could make a trade somewhat difficult.

Still, fans are trying. Here are a few examples:
Ja Morant to the Timberwolves
Eh, I don’t know. Even with Rudy Gobert past his prime, he’s still important and a good fit with the contending T-Wolves.
Maybe the Grizzlies getting Tyler Herro is a good return?
Now this one’s intriguing. Would Morant fit in with that squad as its structured now? Hmm.
The Kings get Ja Morant
I… don’t hate it! Not sure if the Grizzlies get back enough of a return, though.
