The Portland Trail Blazers were profiled by ESPN’s Bobby Marks (subscription required) as part of an article hitting all 30 NBA teams and their respective positions ahead of the NBA’s Feb. 6 trade deadline.
Marks speculates that the Blazers may have trouble moving Jerami Grant, who is having one of the worst statistical seasons of his career:
Grant’s playoff experience and his ability to play a position of need should make him the most viable trade candidate of the group. Unlike Wizards forward and fellow trade candidate Kyle Kuzma, whose contract decreases each season, Grant’s salary increases and thus makes it more difficult to trade.
