Portland’s favorite scapegoat is turning things around.
The one major addition, a $70 million addition to be exact, to last year’s successful team is Evan Turner. The Trail Blazers have taken a step backward the first month of the season. For Turner personally, he could not have started the season with a worse few weeks. It inspired this article last week.
However, since RCP declared him NOT the worst NBA player, Turner is enjoying an efficient stretch of basketball. Over the last five games, he is shooting 50% from the field, 36% from deep and averaging 14ppg – 3rpg -3apg.
