Sources: Grizzlies to Send Valanciunas to Pelicans - The New Orleans Pelicans are finalizing a trade to send Steven Adams, Eric Bledsoe and two future first-round picks - including the 10th overall pick in Thursday's NBA Draft - to Memphis for center Jonas Valanciunas and the 17th overall pick, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. Determined to create significant financial flexibility in free agency next week, the Pelicans are including the 2022 Lakers first-round pick - protected to 10 - in the trade, sources said.

The deal moves the Grizzlies into the lottery at No. 10 of a deep 2021 draft and allows them to add another significant piece to an already playoff tested core of young players.
