Ja Morant is another star reportedly on the Minnesota Timberwolves’ radar as the organization looks to strengthen its roster around Anthony Edwards.

According to reports, the Memphis Grizzlies are expected to move Morant this offseason after beginning a broader roster overhaul earlier this year.

Memphis explored trade possibilities before the deadline but ultimately did not complete a deal.

With Morant expected to return to the trade market this summer, Minnesota is among the teams believed to be evaluating whether the All-Star guard could become the second franchise cornerstone alongside Edwards.

Morant has played 7 seasons for the Grizzlies. He has averaged 22.4 points, 7.4 assists, and 4.6 rebounds in 327 regular-season games.

He was selected to play in 2 All-Star games. He has won the Rookie of the Year award and 1 Most Improved Player award.
