Change is in the NBA air, and the Memphis Grizzlies might soon be players in the free-agency-and-trading spectacle.

According to ESPN's Marc Stein, they're interested in the fire-sale action some soon expect out of the Denver Nuggets:

Gallinari is a terrific shooter, but he's also a playmaker and a gamer who played an integral role on a 57-win Denver team in 2012-13. His health is a concern, though, as he missed 23 games last year and all of the 2013-14 season with leg issues. This makes him a bit of a risk for the Grizzlies in a trade, if they make one for him.
