#3 Memphis Grizzlies

Right from his first NBA game, Ja Morant's shoulders carry a mammoth task of revamping a franchise. The Grizzlies added the 6-foot-2 point guard out of Murray State as the 2nd overall pick in this year's draft.

Currently, the starting lineup of Ja Morant, Dillon Brooks, Kyle Anderson, Jonas Valancuinas and Jaren Jackson Jr. does not look like an impactful group. Moreover, the presence of the only proven and reliable entity in the depth chart - Andre Iguodala - is already namesake as the front office continues to look for trade options to his desire.

Despite the presence of former franchise faces in Conley and Gasol for the majority of the past season, the Grizzlies could only manage 33 wins and finished out of the playoff picture. So it makes sense to stack the chips against Memphis now that they have to build everything from the ground up.
