The 2021 NBA Draft is less than a month away and the Trail Blazers’ potential involvement in the process is far from determined. For the second time in Blazers President of Basketball Operations Neil Olshey’s tenure with the team, Portland will enter draft night without a pick in either round. Due to the large salaries at the top of the Blazers’ payroll, Olshey could look to get back into the action in order to add an affordable player to the end of Portland’s bench.
With that in mind, this year’s draft coverage at Blazer’s Edge will revolve around the idea that Portland has a decent shot of getting back into the second round.
