Grizzlies’ Morant Talks Include Ask to Bucks for Distant First and Ryan Rollins

Cautious bidders cite contract size, recent dip in form.

Overview

  • Memphis is listening to trade calls on Ja Morant, with multiple teams exploring options but no deal moving toward completion, according to several reports.
  • In conversations with Milwaukee, the Grizzlies have sought a 2031 or 2032 first-round pick plus guard Ryan Rollins, an ask described by insiders as potentially stalling a Bucks deal.
  • Miami’s interest is described as measured as front-office planning prioritizes flexibility, and any Heat package would likely center on Terry Rozier’s expiring contract, though his tradeability remains unclear while he is on leave.
  • Sacramento has been linked to Morant but would not send significant draft capital, and New Orleans has also registered interest alongside Toronto among other teams.
  • Morant’s market is muted by injuries, a one-game suspension and career-low shooting numbers this season, and a viral post claiming a completed Bucks trade was debunked as a parody account hoax.
