The Portland Trail Blazers could still be benefitting from the Damian Lillard trade.
After acquiring Jrue Holiday in the Lillard deal, Portland flipped him to the Boston Celtics for Malcolm Brogdon, a veteran guard who the Blazers are looking to keep ... at least for now.
Bleacher Report’s Greg Swartz suggested a deal that sends Brogdon to the Los Angeles Clippers for Marcus Morris Sr., rookie Kobe Brown, Amir Coffey, and a 2024 second-round pick (via Toronto Raptors).
Brown, the Clippers’ first-round pick this past summer, gives the Blazers some more young talent in their frontcourt, while Morris can be flipped to a contender or Portland can use the savings from his expiring $17.
