The Memphis Grizzlies could potentially use the return from the blockbuster Desmond Bane trade to add former Michigan State star Jase Richardson in the 2025 NBA draft.

Morant took to social media, responding to Smith's comments, saying that NBA players don't feel safe in the 901.

On Tuesday, Morant himself took to X with a strong message as his name swirled in trade discussions: The 901 Morant referred to is the area code for the city of Memphis, and it's quite the statement from the Grizzlies star to make publicly.
