The Memphis Grizzlies are open to discussing potential trades involving star guard Ja Morant, according to a New York Post report dated Jan. 9, 2026.
The story describes the front office’s stance as an unexpected development but offers no details on possible trade partners or ongoing negotiations. Morant, drafted second overall in 2019, has been the centerpiece of the franchise’s recent playoff runs and is widely considered one of the league’s most dynamic young players.
The Post notes only that Memphis is “open” to conversations, leaving unclear whether the team is initiating talks or simply fielding inquiries as the NBA’s trade deadline approaches.
Neither the Grizzlies nor Morant’s representatives have publicly commented on the report.
