Golden State is hoping to climb the standings, but for the Grizzlies, they’re in a different spot. Memphis (35-16) remains in sole possession of the No. 2 seed after a win against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday. With that game now finished, all eyes have shifted to Thursday’s 2 p.m. trade deadline.

“The Grizzlies, for example, have held exploratory talks with Miami about Butler, but those interactions haven't gone far,” The Athletic reports. “According to league sources, the Heat asked about Memphis' young players, which the Grizzlies rebuffed.”
