As reports swirled about the Memphis Grizzlies potentially considering a monumental franchise shift, all eyes turned to the locker room for a reaction. It was the team’s DJ, Jaren Jackson […]

One of the biggest names on the trade market as the deadline draws near is Memphis Grizzlies All-Star guard Ja Morant.

One team in particular, the Sacramento Kings, were previously thought not to be pursing […]

As the Toronto Raptors are surrounded by rumors over what the team could do when it comes to February’s trade deadline, the one name that could be in their sights is Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant.

Ja Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies could be heading toward a breakup soon, as the team has said that they’re listening to offers for the star guard. There could be teams that are jumping up for the chance to add a player like Morant to their team, but of course, they want to do it […]

Recently, the Memphis Grizzlies have been enveloped in the rumor mill after it was reported by ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania that the team was open to a trade involving star point guard Ja Morant. After seeing the return that the Atlanta Hawks recently got for Trae Young from the Washington Wizards, fans aren’t exactly […]

The idea of Giannis Antetokounmpo paired with Ja Morant is intoxicating on paper. One is a generational force of nature in the half-court and transition. The other is among the league’s most electric downhill creators. In a vacuum, it looks like a shortcut back to title contention for the Milwaukee Bucks after two seasons of […]

The winds of change are blowing through the FedExForum before the NBA Trade Deadline. After a tumultuous few seasons defined by injuries, suspensions, and unmet expectations, the Memphis Grizzlies are entertaining offers for Ja Morant. EVP Zach Kleiman is suddenly trying to fill a massive rotational void and redefine an identity, all while turning around […]

Few storylines carry the weight of Ja Morant’s uncertain future with Tuomas Iisalo’s regrouping Memphis Grizzlies as the NBA Trade Deadline looms. Once the electrifying face of the Grind City revival, the two-time All-Star has seen his tenure marred by injuries and off-court issues alike. A rocky campaign that’s left a 16-22 Play-In-bound squad out […]

The Ja Morant era for the Memphis Grizzlies appears to be coming to an end, but for the Miami Heat, Minnesota Timberwolves, or Sacramento Kings, their Morant era could be beginning soon.

For the first time all season, the Memphis Grizzlies are beginning to seriously entertain the idea of trading All-Star point guard Ja Morant before the Feb. 5 NBA trade deadline, as first reported by Shams Charania of ESPN. The Grizzlies, who are currently 16-21 entering Friday night’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, have dealt […]

The Memphis Grizzlies desperately needed a victory in the FedEx Forum, and Tuomas Iisalo made some news in an unconventional fashion. With more than half their regular rotation sidelined, Victor Wembanyama’s San Antonio Spurs still come up short in the FedEx Forum. Sure, the five combined blocks from Santi Aldama and Jaren Jackson Jr. deserve […]

At first glance, Ja Morant and Trae Young appear to occupy similar territory in the NBA trade deadline discourse. Both are former franchise cornerstones that have seen their value complicated by on-court results and off-court considerations. Both also play for teams hovering in the middle of their respective conference races, but the similarities end there. […]

The Memphis Grizzlies find themselves in a precarious position as the 2026 NBA Trade Deadline looms. Tuomas Iisalo’s injury-riddled roster is clinging to the 10th spot in the Western Conference, barely holding onto the final Play-In Tournament berth with a 15-20 record. One bench-bolstering move, plus a bit of health luck around Ja Morant and […]

On Tuesday evening, the San Antonio Spurs will hit the road to take on the Memphis Grizzlies. Ja Morant and Victor Wembanyama are both on the injury report and listed as questionable for this contest, Morant with a right calf contusion and Wembanyama with a left knee bone bruise. Here’s everything we know about Morant […]

On Sunday night, the Memphis Grizzlies will hit the road to take on the Los Angeles Lakers in a rematch of Friday night’s game between the two teams.

The NBA trade deadline is the busiest and most hectic day of the year in basketball. The NBA’s last day to make deals is particularly fun because every team, whether good or bad, gets in on the action. Last year, 16 trades were made on deadline day alone. Plenty of huge deals, including the Los […]

The Philadelphia 76ers are currently seventh in the Eastern Conference, […]

Fans should be forgiven for asking if the year is over yet, even though one New Year’s Eve game against the Philadelphia 76ers remains. Beale Street will not see winning basketball in 2025; that much was assured with a second loss to CJ McCollum’s Washington Wizards in eight days. Ja Morant’s second game back (16th […]

Ja Morant returned for the Memphis Grizzlies — and he made sure everyone noticed. In a Friday night clash against the Milwaukee Bucks, his comeback arrived with emphasis. Cedric Coward grabbed a rebound and launched an outlet up the floor. Morant sprinted ahead in full stride. Myles Turner stepped in, hesitated, and wanted no part […]

The Memphis Grizzlies will have Ja Morant available against the Milwaukee Bucks, and that news shifted the outlook before tipoff. Cedric Coward has also been cleared, giving the Grizzlies back an important rotation wing, while the Bucks continue to play without Giannis Antetokounmpo, who remains sidelined with a right calf strain. The swing is clear: […]

The Memphis Grizzlies (14-16) have played admirably and competently without Ja Morant, but as long as the star point guard remains a part of the franchise’s plans, the team will need him to stay on the court. Continuity is essential, and this group has been forced to switch lineups far too often over the last […]

With Memphis Grizzlies young center Zach Edey looking to return from injury, he joins a long list of players on the team who are ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Washington Wizards. As Grizzlies star Ja Morant also deals with an injury, he will also miss Saturday’s contest, which doesn’t even cover a third […]

We’re back once again with another betting prediction and pick for Wednesday’s two-game slate, this matchup coming in the Western Conference. The Memphis Grizzlies (12-14) will take on the Minnesota Timberwolves (17-9) in their first meeting of the season. Check our NBA odds series for the Grizzlies-Timberwolves prediction and pick. The Memphis Grizzlies are ninth in the Western […]

In a season defined by the absences of its franchise cornerstones, the Memphis Grizzlies have learned collective health is not merely about who is in uniform, but how the entire operation functions. Jaren Jackson Jr. missed the start of the season. Ja Morant and Zach Edey are back on the injury report, continuing a trend […]

On Wednesday evening, the Minnesota Timberwolves will play host to the Memphis Grizzlies in a matchup of two playoff hopefuls in the Western Conference.

Tuomas Iisalo had barely finished addressing a locker room caught between celebration and concern before stepping to the podium and offering a revealing snapshot of how the Memphis Grizzlies are wired. The win over the LA Clippers was secure, but the mood was complicated. Ja Morant had exited with another ankle injury just days after […]

For most teams, the sight of a superstar like Ja Morant limping off the floor in the fourth quarter would trigger a crisis. For Jaren Jackson Jr.’s new-look Memphis Grizzlies, it was merely the latest chapter in a season-long manual on adaptation Tuomas Iisalo has been forced to write from scratch. Morant left in the […]

Ja Morant didn’t need a bucket to bring FedExForum to life. Early in the first quarter against the Utah Jazz, with the Memphis Grizzlies trailing 13–11, Morant turned the ball over near the opponent’s rim. What followed summed up why Memphis fans feed off his energy. Morant immediately flipped the switch, raced the length of […]

Ja Morant is finally back on the court for the first time since the Memphis Grizzlies’ 108-100 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on November 15. After fighting back from a calf injury, the star point guard made an immediate impression for his team after making a tough score for his first bucket in his return. […]

Update: Ja Morant will play for the Memphis Grizzlies against the Utah Jazz, according to Marc Stein. The Memphis Grizzlies and Utah Jazz will go head-to-head on Friday night. Ja Morant is dealing with a right calf strain, however, so is the Grizzlies star playing tonight vs. the Jazz? It has been a difficult season […]

The Sacramento Kings aren’t a very well-run franchise, although longtime fans of the NBA would know that already. They’ve managed to fumble their playoff team that got the entire city of Sacramento up on its feet back in 2023, and they are now looking likely to start over from scratch. But this Kings front office […]

Just when the Memphis Grizzlies thought Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. were ready to wrap up the Western Conference standings, Tuomas Iisalo’s squad found a lump of coal in their Christmas stocking. A season marked by constant reintegration and recalibration has hit another obstacle. Unfortunately, after less than a month in the rotations, Zach […]

The NBA trade season is upon us. Many players who just signed contracts this past offseason will become trade-eligible on Dec. 15, which has become the unofficial start of when trade talk really picks up around the NBA. Not to mention, the G League Winter Showcase in Orlando, taking place from Dec. 19-22, will paint […]

For weeks, speculation surrounding Ja Morant’s future has sent the NBA rumor mill into overdrive. Trade chatter has swirled from Miami to Minnesota, fueled by Morant’s frustrations with the Memphis Grizzlies’ new coaching staff and a suspension that magnified early-season tensions. But according to NBA insider Sam Amick, the story being told outside the building […]

The Ja Morant’s Memphis Grizzlies have rediscovered an edge at just the right time, stifling opponents while surging up the Western Conference standings. Tuomas Iisalo has spent the first weeks of December rewiring the locker room’s identity, turning a sluggish start into one of the NBA’s most quietly dominant defensive stretches heading into the holidays.
