Portland Trail Blazers general manager Joe Cronin has agreed to a multiyear contract extension with the franchise, sources told ESPN on Monday.
The Blazers have 35 victories this season -- a 14-win improvement over last season, so far. They are 22-16 since Jan. 19 with a top-5 ranking in defensive efficiency during that span, according to ESPN Research.
The Blazers have been building around a mix of veterans such as Anfernee Simons, Deni Avdija, Jerami Grant and Deandre Ayton along with young talent in Shaedon Sharpe, Scoot Henderson, Toumani Camara and Donovan Clingan.
