Adrian Wojnarowski tweeted Thursday night that the Nets and Grizzlies "have been engaged in trade talks centered on guard O.J. Mayo, but a deal appears unlikely."

Woj tweeted further that talks between the two teams "included scenarios for Anthony Morrow and a pick for O.J. Mayo, but discussions have lost traction."

Mayo is getting paid $5.6 million this season and will be a restricted free agent next summer. The Grizzlies have lost bigs Darrell Arthur and Zach Randolph already this season. They've already traded guards Greivis Vasquez and Xavier Henry in deals that brought back forwards Quincy Pondexter and Marreese Speights.
