NBA: Grading all 30 teams at the 2019 All-Star break

Memphis Grizzlies (23-36)

It’s been a rough year for the Memphis Grizzlies and, really, their only silver lining has been the play of rookie Jaren Jackson Jr., who appears to be a real player and a key part to this team’s upcoming rebuild.

Memphis finally decided to move on from Marc Gasol, but the return wasn’t great. And that was somewhat disappointing. So much so that the team elected no to move Mike Conley at the NBA Trade Deadline, in an attempt to try and get something bigger than what they were being offered.

They couldn’t make two bad trades at the deadline, for the two faces of their franchise for the last decade. The good news is that the Grizzlies have finally come to their senses and will embrace the rebuild. Now the hard part starts.

Grade: D+
