Memphis remains hopeful it can acquire one of several players via trade, including such swingmen as Utah's Ronnie Brewer or Miami's Dorell Wright.

The Grizzlies expect to complete a trade before Thursday's deadline, according to sources with knowledge of the team's dealings.

Memphis isn't seriously fielding offers for point guard Mike Conley on the eve of the trade deadline. Sources contradicted an ESPN.com report that the Griz considered moving Conley for cap relief and a first-round pick.
