The Memphis Grizzlies may move guard Ty Jerome as part of their ongoing roster restructuring. Analysts identify Jerome as a potential trade candidate due to his 6-foot-5 frame and ball-handling ability. During his 2025-26 campaign, Jerome averaged 19.7 points and 5.7 assists per game across 15 appearances before an injury interrupted his season. His current contract pays $9.2 million annually, making him a manageable asset for other teams. While the Grizzlies aim to prioritize the development of rookie Cameron Boozer, they may hold onto Jerome if the team remains in contention for the play-in tournament near the trade deadline. The team is balancing the benefits of securing future draft capital against the potential advantage of keeping veteran players to support their younger core.
