Memphis Grizzlies Receive: Jerami Grant
Detroit Pistons Receive: Dillon Brooks, Justise Winslow, 2021 1st Round Pick, 2021 2nd Round Pick (via PHX), 2023 1st Round Pick
Jerami Grant is having the best statistical season of his career averaging 22.5 points per game. He is doing it for a 14-34 Pistons team right now in Detroit. He has played in 45 games and is proving that he can be the focal point of a team’s offense.
Grant is one of the true ‘3-and-D’ players in the league and would fit in on any team. A team like the Grizzlies, who could use more firepower on the wing that can complement Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. could certainly benefit from making such a move. This is a chance for Memphis to add that impact performer.

The return would not be cheap for two more years of Grant. He signed a three-year deal with the Pistons in the offseason. Dillon Brooks would lead the way. He is a strong rotation player for the Grizzlies. Justise Winslow and some draft capital would round out the deal for the Pistons.
The trade value for Jerami Grant is higher than anyone could have imagined it being prior to this season. He was a crucial contributor for the Denver Nuggets after being traded to the team by the Memphis Grizzlies.
Let’s take a closer look and see how this NBA offseason trade scenario centered around Jerami Grant might help both the Detroit Pistons and Memphis Grizzlies.
