What keeps Adam Silver up at night

The Memphis Grizzlies have agreed to send Marcus Smart and a 2025 first round pick to the Washington Wizards for two second round picks along with Marvin Bagley III and Johnny Davis in a multi-team trade. As part of the trade, the Sacramento Kings will send Alex Len, Colby Jones and their 2028 second round pick to the Grizzlies for Jake LaRavia.

The deal creates roster flexibility for the Grizzlies by trading out Smart and it also could allow the team to do a renegotiate-and-extend deal with Jaren Jackson Jr.

Smart appeared in 19 games with the Grizzlies this season and averaged 8.7 points, 2.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 21.1 minutes. Smart is on a $20.2 million deal this season and $21.6 million for 25-26.

The NBA reinstated Draymond Green on Saturday following a 12-game suspension, sources told Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

Green is expected to return to game action in one week.

Green will return to the Warriors’ practice facility on Sunday after being away from the team during his suspension.

“Green completed steps that demonstrated his commitment to conforming his conduct to standards expected of NBA players. He has engaged in meetings with a counselor and has met jointly on multiple occasions with representatives of the NBA, the Warriors and the National Basketball Players Association, both of which will continue throughout the season,” the league announced in a statement.
