The pressure is on for the Memphis Grizzlies to improve the roster this summer. But before they can do that, they need to secure the future of one of their stars. Jaren Jackson Jr. didn't qualify for the supermax so they'll need to get creative in extending him. After that, they'll have an opportunity to be aggressive on the trade market to bring in another forward.
In this video, I analyze the Grizzlies' salary cap situation for their upcoming offseason, renegotiate and extend Jackson Jr.'s contract, re-sign Santi Aldama to a front-loaded contract, and trade for Cameron Johnson.
