The Memphis Grizzlies didn’t have any players compete in NBA All-Star weekend festivities. Nobody expected this, but that doesn’t mean that this team doesn’t have any All-Stars, skilled players, 3-point shooters, and dunkers.

This team has a wide range, as most NBA teams do. But with injuries and other ailments on this team, there wasn’t much of an opportunity in 2021.

Ja Morant was, however, selected to the NBA’s Rising Stars challenge. Unfortunately, the game between young stars would not happen this year due to a condensed version of the normal All-Star weekend. It wasn’t worth the time or resources while COVID is still looming.

So that left the Grizzlies with nobody participating in All-Star weekend. But even though there wasn’t anybody to watch this year doesn’t mean that there won’t be any future All-Stars on the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Memphis Grizzlies have NBA All-Star talent brewing

From young talent to explosive athletes, the Grizzlies have it all. Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. are sure to see at least a few All-Star games in their future, while other guys on this team have potential to gain entrance to competitions like the NBA Dunk Contest and 3-Point Contest.

But when will these players have an opportunity to display their talents on a national scale? Well, right now they’re doing that by playing strong basketball for their team, but some of these guys could be selected to an All-Star appearance as soon as next year. Ja Morant just missed the cut, while Desmond Bane has established himself as an elite 3-point shooter.

From the 3-point Contest to the Dunk Contest, here are Memphis Grizzlies players who are most likely to participate in NBA All-Star weekend.
