Dillon Brooks has become a household name for the Memphis Grizzlies. However, the reasoning behind it isn't for any good reason. Brooks has slowly become known as the Memphis trash talker.

The Lakers answered the trash talk from Brooks with a dominating Game 3 performance over the Grizzlies. But that wasn't even the tip of the iceberg for Brooks in Game 3.

However, those words fell on deaf ears. as Brooks was escorted to the locker room. Brooks' trash talk has caused heated debates among fans through social media.

Now, it seems that maybe the Grizzlies are having second thoughts about Brooks being in Memphis.

Could Dillon Brooks Be In A Different Uniform Next Season?

According to Tim MacMahon of ESPN, Brooks' days are potentially numbered in Memphis. MacMahon even reports that the Grizzlies have already tried moving on from Brooks. Now those in the know of the situation wonder if Brooks will even be on the team after the series against the Lakers. Life is coming at Brooks swiftly. The former Oregon Duck was once thought to be a centerpiece for this young Grizzlies team. Now it seems like a matter of time before he is in a different city.
