Grizzlies Trade Morant to Blazers | Memphis Grizzlies News

The Memphis Grizzlies have traded star point guard Ja Morant to the Portland Trail Blazers just before free agency, marking the end of his tenure in Memphis after a tumultuous three seasons marred by injuries and off-court issues. In exchange, Memphis gets Jerami Grant and Kris Murray — a move that prioritizes rebuilding around draft assets over immediate impact. For Portland, the gamble is high: pairing Morant with Damian Lillard and Scoot Henderson could unlock elite potential, but only if Morant stays healthy and focused. The Grizzlies’ bold rebuild continues, while Portland takes a chance on a superstar’s comeback — with no draft picks sacrificed, making this trade both surprising and strategic.
