Portland Trail Blazers Summer League standouts: Day 1

The Portland Trail Blazers fell to the Boston Celtics in their Las Vegas Summer League opener, 85-76. Although wins are nice in Summer League, they are not generally meaningful. The roster looks nothing like it will come the regular season, so game outcomes foreshadow very little overall. This is just time for practice and, for the Trail Blazers, searching for diamonds in the rough, so we are going to pay more attention to individual achievements than team successes or failures. Yesterday’s loss came with its own wins under the microscope.

Three Trail Blazers separated themselves from the pack; Allen Crabbe, Tim Frazier, and Malcolm Thomas.
