Why The Memphis Grizzlies Do The Deal
There is no doubt that Memphis is making a winning move here. Williams’ potential doesn’t matter to them – they want the player that Anunoby is now, not what he is capable of.
Nevertheless, he is only 25 years old, so he has a lot of time ahead of him. There is no doubt that the Grizzlies are in an enviable position right now. There are a lot of things working in their favor, but their core group of Ja Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Desmond Bane is still very young.
Wouldn’t it be great if Anunoby were added to that core? As a result of this deal, the Grizzlies will not have to rely on the draft to add talent to their team after this season.
With such a group of players, they will be able to compete for the NBA title for years to come. This includes this year as well. This team would be even stacked if Anunoby were added to the mix.
