The Memphis Grizzlies have made a bold move by trading rising star Desmond Bane to the Orlando Magic, prompting speculation about the future of superstar point guard Ja Morant. With the team's potential shift towards a rebuild, NBA insiders suggest the Miami Heat could be a prime candidate to acquire Morant. This comes after discussions during the previous season about Morant possibly joining the Heat amidst the ongoing Jimmy Butler saga.

Yahoo Sports' Vince Goodwill hinted at the complexities of a potential trade due to contract situations, but he emphasized that a Morant-Herro backcourt could significantly enhance Miami's offense. While it remains uncertain whether the Grizzlies will indeed part ways with Morant, the recent trade of Bane suggests that changes could be imminent in Memphis.
