Grizzlies star guard Ja Morant is one of the biggest names reportedly on the market leading up to the NBA trade deadline.

The vibes were high after the Memphis Grizzlies defeated the Orlando Magic in London, an energized Ja Morant returning after a two-week absence and shredding their oft-praised defense with 20 points and 10 assists in the first half.

While London was fun, the larger sample size - and respected local journalists - suggest that the end of the Ja Era in Memphis may still be on the way.

Ja Morant says there should be no doubt about his desire to keep playing for the Memphis Grizzlies. After a dominant performance in a 126-109 victory over the Orlando Magic, the two-time All Star addressed recent trade speculation about him.

Grizzlies coach praises Ja Morant’s energy and leadership, saying his impact lifted the entire team despite trade rumors.
