Ja Morant’s trade value plummets as the Memphis Grizzlies shop their star guard—will a desperate contender like the Miami Heat, Phoenix Suns, or Milwaukee Bucks roll the dice? Wes Goldberg, Matt Moore, and Haize tackle the NBA’s point guard carousel, the risks of trading for Morant given his recent struggles and off-court concerns, and speculate on potential blockbuster destinations. The conversation compares Morant’s upside to Tyler Herro, explores possible fits next to Bam Adebayo or Devin Booker, and weighs whether a change of scenery could revive Morant’s career.
Golden State Warriors face a crossroads after another blowout loss—does a high-risk swing for Michael Porter Jr. solve their depth woes, or do they need reliable role players rather than more star power? The hosts dissect the Warriors’ rotation issues, Klay Thompson trade scenarios, and draw parallels to the Dallas Mavericks’ supporting-cast model. Plus, weekend winners and losers spotlight Anthony Edwards’ clutch heroics, the surging Phoenix Suns, and the Houston Rockets’ puzzling inconsistency.
