The Portland Trail Blazers’ interest in Jerami Grant could possibly be the worst-kept secret in the NBA.
The Blazers inquired about Grant at the trade deadline, but the Detroit Pistons were not intrigued enough by Portland’s offer.
However, since the deadline, the Blazers acquired the New Orleans Pelicans’ lottery pick, and Grant will enter a contract year. It makes the Pistons more likely to trade him, according to James Edwards III of The Athletic.
Portland’s going to find itself in an interesting situation where they could have a high draft pick coming up… Maybe if it’s high enough, it’s an offer the Pistons can’t refuse.
