3. Memphis Grizzlies
The Memphis Grizzlies are a team on the rise. They have a star point guard leading the show with Ja Morant. Jaren Jackson Jr. has looked the part of high-level sidekick to Morant in the frontcourt. This is a team that plays hard and they aren’t going anywhere.
This Grizzlies team gets at it on both ends of the court as they still embody some of the grit and grind era Grizzlies. But, if there is one area that they could look to upgrade, it is their 3-point shooting.
The Grizzlies are at the bottom third of the NBA in 3-pointers made, attempted and shooting percentage thus far this season, ranking 22nd, 23rd and 20th. Morant and Desmond Bane are the only above-average shooters, percentage-wise, on the team that knock down at least one 3-pointer per game.
In the market for some 3-point shooting help, Duncan Robinson could be a fit. While Robinson is making only 35.2 percent of his 3-point attempts this season, he has a proven track record as a high-volume shooter, making 40.9 percent of his attempts in his career.

His shortcomings on defense are something that the Grizzlies should be able to overcome with their team defense, as they are strong elsewhere on the roster.
