Coming off a crushing road loss against the Indiana Pacers on Thursday, the Memphis Grizzlies went into the second leg of a back-to-back desperate for a win. The Grizzlies traveled to face the Orlando Magic on Friday, and the big cross-conference matchup came down to the wire.

If the Grizzlies lose early in the playoffs and are looking to make improvements, Morant could be the catalyst in a deal while Memphis builds around Jaren Jackson Jr. and Desmond Bane. It’s certainly not imminent, but if Memphis disappoints down the stretch, keep an eye out come summertime.

The Memphis Grizzlies have bounced back this season as one of the better teams in the Western Conference. After an injury-riddled year last season, Memphis has reclaimed its spot among the elite teams in the West.
