How are teams allowed to sit these guys like this until they are traded? Do they both have "injuries"?
You can DNP a guy for all sorts of reasons. In cases like this, Tyreke and his agent are 100% down for it because the last thing he needs is to get hurt before the Griz can trade him to a team willing to pay him.

I get why they do it, but I'm surprised the Nba turns a blind eye to a guy like reke going from 30mins a game to DNP's.

The Players Association exists for stuff like that. Also, the commissioner's office doesn't have the power to just hop into an organization's internal moves either.

Only time they came close was regarding the Pelicans and that was because the league had to take over that team to an extent.
