The NBA trade deadline is quickly approaching. Already, the Lakers have traded off Lou Williams to the Rockets, hoping to keep their lottery pick alive. The New Orleans Pelicans secured DeMarcus Cousins, giving them a big-man combo that some consider as deadly as Tim Duncan and David Robinson of the Spurs dynasty. The Portland Trailblazers have made big moves, too.
With all eyes on Western Conference trade action, where do the Grizzlies fit into the conversation?
Memphis has an overarching backup point guard issue, possibly solved with the acquisition of veteran Toney Douglas. A high-volume scorer for the Grizzlies second group also garners attention.
