Report: Rudy Gay could be on trading block

Sources tell Grantland.com that Memphis has "made it known in preliminary talks with other teams that Rudy Gay could be available via trade."
The Grizzlies are 20-9 and Gay leads them in scoring at 18.0 points per game. But he's set to earn $37 million in the next two seasons and the Grizz are already $4 million over the luxury tax, hence the trade rumors. Still, we'd consider the odds of a deal going down very long. Teams won't be in a hurry to pay Gay's salary and the Grizz could very well decide to just saddle up and make a run at the title this year. They'll need their best pure scorer to do that.

Report: Memphis, Phoenix talk Rudy Gay deal

The Memphis Grizzlies and Phoenix Suns are engaged in trade discussions around Rudy Gay, sources told Yahoo! Sports.

The Suns desperately need a franchise face and have struggled to get any production on the wing, so targeting Gay makes some sense. There is no current framework in place for a deal, and the Grizzlies have insisted that Jared Dudley as well as future first-round picks are involved in any type of trade. Gay's name will continue to surface in trade rumors until if and when he's dealt.
