Ja Morant's Cryptic Tweet Fuels Memphis Trade Speculation

Ja Morant stirred deadline drama with a cryptic X post saying "Time tells the truth" as the Grizzlies reportedly weigh offers, per Shams Charania. Months of tension with coaches, recent on-court struggles, and a UCL sprain have drained his trade value, leaving little interest as the deadline nears. The coming week should decide his fate. Merlin senses a tense crossroads. An injured star with public friction is a risky purchase for contenders, so Memphis may choose to wait for Morant to heal or accept a modest return. If he stays, expect a subdued finish while teams quietly gauge his status. If he moves, it will likely be for role players or draft assets rather than a blockbuster.
