Would this trade make sense for the Memphis Grizzlies?
Dillon Brooks and Kyle Anderson are the names that were recently thrown around in NBA trade rumors by the Memphis Grizzlies. They have been featured in rumors together but could end up being thrown in different deals. Either way, Memphis can benefit from trades in order to add long-term pieces.
Brooks could bring back more value than Anderson. In this deal, Memphis would take a chance on two up-and-coming guards. Kennard has shown that he can fill it up from three-point range off the bench. He shot a career-high 44.6% from three-point range this season.
Kennard took a step back scoring with the LA Clippers but that was to be expected. In Memphis, he can get back to a more extended role.
Mann has yet to prove himself fully. He put up some memorable performances in the postseason but was not a consistent contributor. This is another instance where Mann could benefit from an extended role.

In the end, the Grizzlies would get two players for the price of one. This is a move to help Memphis build depth and add some pieces that could stick around long-term during the final steps of the rebuild.
