Multiple outlets report that the Memphis Grizzlies trade Ja Morant to the Portland Trail Blazers, ending his seven-year tenure in Memphis. Sources cited by media describe the move as part of the Grizzlies’ continued rebuilding after years of on-court and off-court turmoil associated with Morant. The reports state that the deal sends Morant to Portland, where he joins the team’s plans for a new direction. Several outlets also report the basic trade components, including Portland acquiring Morant in exchange for Jerami Grant and Kris Murray. The agreement is described as having been reached between the Trail Blazers and Grizzlies, with the trade subject to standard league procedures. At least one report notes that the transaction awaits NBA approval and physicals. Other coverage frames the move as a significant personnel shift for Memphis, the organization that drafted Morant second overall in the 2019 NBA draft and where he became a two-time NBA All-Star during his time with the club. Collectively, the reports characterize the trade as a clear end to Morant’s Memphis chapter and the start of a new period in Portland.
