#3 Memphis Grizzlies

The Memphis Grizzlies are headed in the right direction and are advancing fast. Ja Morant has been the perfect transition from the Conley-Gasol era, as the team finds itself comfortably inside the playoff picture - with a lot of exciting talent in store for the future.

The Grizzlies can fabricate a package involving Jae Crowder and picks to lure in Marcus Morris, if they really want to go for gold in Ja's very first season. Matching salaries would be an issue but Memphis possess the room to make adjustments and can emerge as a dark horse in the bid to land the veteran swingman.

The Grizzlies' three-point shooting is not even top 10 in the league, and considering they will head into the postseason as a 7th or 8th seed, they will need a solid power forward who is scoring more than anyone on their current roster.
Jaren Jackson's paint presence and Morris' outside shooting will space the floor well for Memphis, also opening multiple driving lanes for an explosive Ja Morant.
