Desmond Bane pushed back on negative narratives about Memphis, saying the city is full of love, support, and community.

The Memphis Grizzlies are in position to have more flexibility for a Jaren Jackson Jr. extension after the Desmond Bane trade.

Kevin Durant may have the San Antonio Spurs as one of the potential destinations on his list as he seeks a trade away from the Phoenix Suns, but it remains questionable if the Spurs are willing to make a major splash to acquire him.

The Memphis Grizzlies are not intending to trade for star Kevin Durant, a source with knowledge of the Grizzlies thinking told The Commercial Appeal.

Durant reportedly has a wishlist (the Spurs, Rockets and Heat reportedly are on it), and with his expiring contract, he has a bit of leverage to get the deal he wants. But he is 37, not 27, and the threat of him passing on a lucrative two-year extension doesn't hold quite the same weight it once would.
