NBA Trade Rumors: Exploring five teams who should target Mike Conley ahead of the NBA Trade Deadline
The Memphis Grizzlies aren’t exactly hiding the fact that they’re ready to make a pivot in terms of their long-term outlook. After finishing with one of the worst records in the NBA last season, in large part due to injuries to Mike Conley and Marc Gasol, the team hoped they would be able to bounce back this season and make a return to the playoffs.
However, nothing that has happened this season has exactly gone to plan. The Grizzlies are 19-30, ranked 14th in the Western Conference and are falling more and more behind in the race for the final playoff spot.
