Grizzlies Rebuild With Boozer Leading | Memphis Grizzlies News

The Memphis Grizzlies shock the NBA by trading Ja Morant to the Portland Trail Blazers just after the draft — a move that caught even their top pick, Cameron Boozer, off guard. Boozer, who was selected third overall just four days before the trade, acknowledges Morant’s impact but embraces the rebuild, stepping into a bigger leadership role. With a fresh young core including Karim Lopez, Richie Saunders, Isaiah Stewart, Carson Cooper, and AJ Johnson, the Grizzlies are fully committed to the future. Boozer, hailed as one of the most NBA-ready rookies, will lead the charge in the Salt Lake City Summer League starting July 4th, facing teams like the Thunder and Jazz before Vegas. The new era begins — and all eyes are on Boozer.
