With Ja Morant out for the season, the Grizzlies might consider tanking the rest of the year. One interesting player in their rotation who we could use is Santi Aldama. He is 6'11 and pretty skilled for a big. He's shooting 34 percent from three but the form looks good and there is potential to improve there. He's already solid defensively and rebounds fairly well. He's probably more of a PF than a center. I think he would work well here. I haven't seen him mentioned on this board as a target.
The deal would be Jaden Hardy for Santi Aldama. We add our Maxi replacement and the Grizzlies add a young guy who can score. Aldama would look good on the second unit with DP but could also start against bigger teams.
He might be available as Steven Adams and Brandon Clarke will be their centers next season. JJJ is one of their best players and David Roddy plays the same position as Aldama. I think this would work.
