I Morant he is not happy. The Memphis Grizzlies The star has expressed disinterest in his team both verbally and through his actions throughout the season. Once thought to be the face of the franchise for the next decade, it appears Morant and the Grizzlies are about to part ways.

With that in mind, which teams are interested in high-flying point guards? Sam Amick speculates that both the Minnesota Timberwolves and Sacramento Kings are could make a play in Morant. Amick also notes that the Houston Rockets, while lacking a point guard after Fred VanVleet’s injury, they are unlikely to trade for a Grizzlies guard.

“As for where this is all going, it’s worth remembering that Morant is still only 26 years old,” Amick wrote to The Athletic. “His baggage is well documented, but there’s still no shortage of teams that will continue to monitor his situation. The Minnesota Timberwolves, according to a team source, are one. Ditto for the Sacramento Kings. The Grizzlies’ next opponent, the Houston Rockets, are in need of a point guard after losing Fred Van Vleet, but compared to the previous team, not unlike the ACL. Pursuing him. That’s just a small sample of what could be there, not there, if the prize money in Morant ever begin.

Morant expressed his displeasure this season with a poor stretch of games to start the 2025-26 season. The Grizzlies star is shooting just under 40% from the field this season as he struggles to adjust to coach Tuomas Iisal’s egalitarian offensive system. He also had a controversial performance in the media for which the team fined him shortly thereafter.

I Morant trade would be shocking, yes. Even with all the struggles he’s faced over the past few years, Morant is still the Grizzlies’ best player and is their franchise player. However, this is also the first time he has expressed his frustration with the team. We will see during the season if the change in Morant’s production will also change his temperament towards the coaching staff.
