With Ja Morant trade rumors rising, which Memphis Grizzlies are most/least likely to be traded?

The Memphis Grizzlies are on the brink of a franchise-altering offseason, with Ja Morant's trade rumors reigniting despite the team's long-standing commitment to him. Joe Mullinax argues that while Morant's departure is nearly inevitable, it's not in either party's best interest—but the reality of the situation makes it unavoidable. Beyond Morant, Mullinax identifies Ty Jerome and Santi Aldama as the next most likely trade candidates due to their expiring contracts, scoring ability, and team-friendly salaries, which make them attractive to contenders rebuilding or contending. In contrast, Zach Eady and Cedric Howard are deemed the least likely to be traded, not because they're untouchable, but because their unique size, defensive potential, and developmental progress make them too valuable to part with unless offered a deal that would reshape the franchise. The episode culminates with a powerful assertion: the number three overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft is the one true untouchable asset—because it represents the last, best chance to rebuild around a new superstar after Morant's departure.
