While Mason Plumlee did lack in typical center skills, he made up for it with high-flying dunks and sharp through a needle passes on fast breaks.
However, Plumlee was set up for a meaty extension this offseason as he became a restricted free agent. The Blazers are pretty tapped out after doling out other contract extensions to Meyers Leonard and Moe Harkless, and matching Brooklyn’s offer sheet to Allen Crabbe.
Slow Start, But Fitting In
Entering Sunday, Plumlee had played in three games for his new team, going 1-2 with the current 8th seed in the West.
