The Memphis Grizzles are trading Ja Morant to the Portland Trail Blazers for Jerami Grant and Kris Murray, sources told ESPN’s Shams Charania.
Morant, 26, averaged 19.5 points and 8.1 assists in 20 games for the Grizzles last season. His campaign ended in March due to a UCL sprain in his left elbow.
The Grizzlies attempted to trade the two-time All-Star guard before last season’s deadline but didn’t receive any serious offers. Morant has played just 79 games over the past three seasons due to a combination of off-court issues and injuries.
