The Memphis Grizzlies are a dark horse candidate for Donovan Mitchell in the event that Cleveland decides to trade him, per @AmNotEvan
“Those same sources have confirmed the reporting that the Los Angeles Lakers, Brooklyn Nets, and Miami Heat are interested in acquiring Mitchell if he becomes available. But a separate source did share that the Houston Rockets and Memphis Grizzlies could also be teams worth monitoring in a possible Mitchell sweepstakes.”

Don’t need him. Why go for Mitchell when we can likely trade fewer pieces for Jarrett Allen and round out our bigs?
Unless Allen is somehow involved, I’ll pass. That front court lineup of Ja, DM, Bane would be one of the worst defensive backcourt lineups
Bane is damn near the perfect SG next to Ja outside of his height. Not moving Bane + Picks for a worse fitting piece.
What are we sending?
Vince, Luke, Marcus Smart and picks?
Eh …
I am not on board…
Unless Pera says if we are going to fuck with the 1st Apron, they let’s really fuck the 1st Apron…
Things don’t work out, we could be the Suns.
Rumor is if Mitchell stays Garland and Allen maybe on the trade block. Makes since for Grizz to reach out about Allen. In no world are we trading for Mitchell
With rumors like this it’s always good to check the source first. This hits different if it came from Shams or Chris Haynes. I don’t know who Evan Damarell is. Do yall?
Makes less than zero sense to trade for Donovan Mitchell.
At least he can shoot, but what is the obsession grizzlies have with a 3 guard lineup?
Doesn’t really suit our needs.
Also don’t want him. His game is sensational, but he’s got some behind-the-scenes character issues. Bad locker room presence, and has some shady folks in his inner circle.
Don’t see us giving up Bane or Jaren for him, and don’t see them accepting without us giving up Bane or Jaren.
He wants to sign on at a steep discount sure, but we aren’t running him with Ja/Bane/Jaren and I am not giving up any of them for him.
WTF hell no
