Two time-NBA All-Star and one of the league’s most controversial players off the court, Ja Morant, was traded by the Grizzlies on Monday.   Morant was dealt to the Trail Blazers, uniting him along with Portland stars Damian Lillard, Jrue Holiday and Scoot Henderson, in exchange for Jerami Grant and Kris Murray, ESPN’s Shams Charania first reported.   The deal ends a turbulent tenure for Morant in Memphis, where he became a household name, while simultaneously finding himself in increasingly significant trouble due to gun-related incidents off the court, as well as injury issues.
