However, the Grizzlies would likely require a very strong offer to even consider moving Aldama, who is averaging career highs of 14.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 3.0 assists.
The 25-year-old Spaniard is under contract through the 2027-28 season, earning $17 million per year.
He is in his fifth season with Memphis after being selected 30th overall in the 2021 NBA Draft. Aldama was originally drafted by the Utah Jazz, but his rights were subsequently traded to the Grizzlies.
Aldama, a product of Loyola Greyhounds, is also a member of the Spanish national team.
