The NBA Trade Deadline is less than four weeks away, and the Portland Trail Blazers could go in a number of different directions.
Sitting in 11th place in the West just 0.5-game back of the play-in tournament, the Blazers could decide that their “retooling” experiment isn’t working. But that doesn’t seem likely.
The Blazers committed to contending by extending Damian Lillard and trading for Jerami Grant in the offseason. Portland sits just nine games back of first place in the West, which shows how tight things are in the conference.
Fanspo recently proposed a deal that would continue the trajectory of talent feeding into Portland in a trade with the Utah Jazz.
