How This Trade Impacts Memphis Grizzlies
It wouldn’t be easy to make the decision to move on from Dillon Brooks from the Memphis Grizzlies’ perspective. However, the Los Angeles Lakers could send some intriguing pieces in a potential trade.
There will come a time when Brooks will be due for a sizeable contract, and the Grizzlies could benefit from getting ahead of the situation by making a move of this kind. The Lakers, in particular, have a solid set of players they can offer.
The return would begin with Talen Horton-Tucker, who would be able to develop alongside Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. for years to come.
Horton-Tucker has shown intriguing flashes of potential during his time with the Lakers. However, Los Angeles is in a win-now mode where the Grizzlies have time to be patient. Memphis should look to capitalize on that.
