The Grizzlies trade both Mike Conley and Marc Gasol

It’s no secret that the Memphis Grizzlies have made both Mike Conley and Marc Gasol available on the trade block. However, it’s one thing for them to be available, and it’s an entirely different thing for them to actually agree to a deal.

While not much has been reported on either fronts, I firmly believe that the Grizzlies will move at least one of them at the NBA Trade Deadline. My bold prediction, however, is that they will move both of them in the coming days.

The Grizzlies are headed towards a long rebuild and Conley and Gasol simply don’t fit with the team’s plans anymore. In order to do both veterans justice, it only makes sense for them to be moving to contending teams.
