This offseason, the Memphis Grizzlies have been all over the place in the trade market. For a while, many fans and experts believed that Jaren Jackson Jr. was at risk of being traded, among other players. In hindsight, that was a bit unrealistic, but the Grizzlies somehow topped that with an even more unexpected move.

They traded Jonas Valanciunas to the New Orleans Pelicans.

The move will ultimately benefit both the Grizzlies and the Pelicans. On the negative side of things, this trade has Memphis fans worrying that nobody is safe, which could be true.
