trade offers for Ja Morant ahead of the Feb. 5 NBA trade deadline,

according to reporting from Shams Charania of ESPN.

In this livestream, we break down why Memphis is listening now, what

rival executives believe the Grizzlies are prioritizing in return, and

how Morant’s long-term contract through the 2027–28 season impacts his

trade market. Multiple teams are pursuing Morant, with league belief

that Memphis would target draft capital and young players if a deal

materializes.

We also analyze the Grizzlies’ broader roster context and performance

profile this season. Despite ranking top-five in points per game and

rebounds, Memphis has hovered around league average defensively and sits

in the middle of the Western Conference picture. With Morant limited to

18 games due to injury, the emergence of young contributors and the

continued rise of Jaren Jackson Jr. has forced the front office to

evaluate multiple paths forward.

This stream dives into:

Why Memphis is weighing a Morant trade now rather than later

How Ja Morant’s on-court production and availability factor into his

value

The Grizzlies’ cap sheet, roster construction, and flexibility under the

apron system

What a post-Morant build could look like around Jackson Jr. and the

current young core

Why Memphis still remains open to keeping Morant as a central piece of a

retool

This is a full front-office-style breakdown, blending reporting, cap

mechanics, roster data, and on-court fit as one of the NBA’s most

seismic trade possibilities comes into focus.
