Timberwolves' dream trade target just became painfully obvious
Memphis Grizzlies v Phoenix Suns | Christian Petersen/GettyImagesMemphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant essentially put himself in trade rumors after repeatedly blaming the coaching staff following a loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night. After the Grizzlies traded Desmond Bane, many people, including myself, thought this could mean they would eventually pivot to a rebuild. That certainly seems more likely now, after Morant's comments.
Ja Morant when asked questions from the media:
“Go ask the coaching staff.”
And then asked what could have been done differently, other than asking the coaching staff:
“According to them, probably don’t play me.”
