Portland is acquiring 2-time All-Star Ja Morant in a trade with Memphis, AP source says
Ja Morant is headed to Portland, after the Trail Blazers and Memphis agreed on a trade Monday that sees the Grizzlies starting anew and gives the two-time All-Star a chance to revive his career, a person with knowledge of the agreement told The Associated Press. Portland is sending Jerami Grant and Kris Murray to the Grizzlies as part of the deal, said the person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the trade has not gotten the required league approvals. It’s a big swing by the Trail Blazers and could suggest Portland — with new owner Tom Dundon, whose Carolina Hurricanes just won the Stanley Cup — might not be done making moves.

Walker Kessler is going from the Jazz to the Lakers, will get a 4-year deal, AP source says
Walker Kessler is being traded by the Utah Jazz to the Los Angeles Lakers, who will have the center under contract for the next four seasons and for a total of about 130 million, a person with knowledge of the agreement said Wednesday. The Jazz are getting two first-round draft picks and two first-round pick swaps out of the deal, according to the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the move is a sign-and-trade and has yet to receive the needed league approvals. Acquiring Kessler is the first big move for the Lakers in their post-LeBron James era, after the NBA's all-time leading scorer said Tuesday that he was leaving the team and would spend this coming season elsewhere.
