The Portland Trail Blazers have completed their 2024-25 season in style, earning a 36-46 record and an honorable mention in the “upcoming teams in the Western Conference” category. As the off-season progresses, we’re reviewing the years of Portland’s players. We’ve already talked about the ups and downs of Scoot Henderson and the high-flying season of Shaedon Sharpe. Today we’re going to look at a rookie who had a pronounced effect on Portland’s defense, Donovan Clingan.
The Good
- Averaging 1.6 blocked shots per game is pretty impressive. Clingan is tied with Cavaliers center Evan Mobley for the 5th and 6th positions in the league in per-game blocks this season.
