Another team looking to deal for assets before the deadline might be the Grizzlies, who were just recently demolished by the Thunder for a second time this season. The Grizzlies are in shambles right now and can’t seem to figure out any lineup combination that works. They’ve even went as far as benching Zach Randolph to provide some sort of spark to a struggling starting five.

However, would they be willing to give up a valuable and highly sought after 3-and-D player? As ESPN’s Kevin Pelton suggests in his insider piece on this trade between two reluctant parties, a package including Mitch McGary, a future first rounder, and Steve Novak‘s expiring contract is really all the Thunder have to offer in such a deal. Memphis has reportedly even entertained trade talks surrounding the Wolves’ Kevin Martin.

Would they lean towards our package or a proven, but aging scorer?
