Enes Kanter Signs with the Portland Trail Blazers

After trading away Nik Stauskas and Wade Baldwin IV in the Rodney Hood deal, the Portland Trail Blazers have had an open roster spot. With many veterans hitting the open market following the trade deadline, we knew that Neil Olshey would presumably target one of these newly bought out players to help the team in the playoffs, but rumors were slim. Now, we have an answer.

The Blazers have reportedly agreed to a deal with center Enes Kanter. Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN broke the news earlier today via Twitter:
