We’re days away from the NBA Trade Deadline and Jerami Grant remains a hot name. He could be headed to a contender. He could be staying put for the time being. The Sacramento Kings have been rumored to have interest in Grant over the past month, and it makes some sense. The Kings have a
Portland Trail Blazers GM Joe Cronin is doing his best Troy Weaver impersonation in conducting a dramatic overhaul of the roster, razing out bad fits and bad contracts (and, it should be noted, good players) in an attempt to right the ship in Portland. Whereas Weaver was completing razing the roster around a significant rebuild,
Following a tough loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, Detroit visits the state of Texas to face the Dallas Mavericks in their final game of a quick two-game road trip.
