Ja Morant Adds More Fuel to Grizzlies Trade Rumors With Latest Move

April 14, 2026

Ja Morant has once again stirred major controversy, and this time it has nothing to do with his performance on the court.

The Memphis Grizzlies star reportedly skipped his team’s exit interview, a key postseason meeting that often shapes a player’s future with the franchise.

This development comes after a season already filled with tension. Back in September 2025, Morant was suspended following public criticism of the coaching staff.

Recent incidents have only added fuel to the fire. During a fan appreciation event, all Grizzlies players participated in giving away jerseys except Morant.

Reports suggest he was told not to attend at the last minute, a decision that drew criticism from former NBA player Danny Green. He called not just to Morant but also to fans who still value him as a franchise star.

Despite the ongoing drama, Morant remains one of the most impactful and marketable players in Memphis. However, skipping a crucial team meeting could signal deeper issues behind the scenes.

With the offseason approaching, this situation is one to watch closely. Whether it leads to reconciliation or a trade, Morant’s has made one thing clear the Grizzlies could be heading toward a major turning point.
