The Grizzlies are sending 2023 and 2024 first-round picks to the Celtics, sources tell ESPN. Grizzlies are sending No. 25 on Thursday night and 2024 pick via Golden State for Smart.

Oh man, I trust Brad but this is a huge gamble. Smart is the heart & soul of the team and this will be a major shock to the locker room... The fans are going to absolutely hate the trade and will have very very little patience with Porzongis.

It re-shapes the team. Running it back the same way wasn't going to work. I like the shape up. Also ads a stretch 4 for them that changes their offensive dynamic. Smart is too inconsistent on offense and that definitely hurt them in the playoffs.
