After a short pit stop with the Sacramento Kings, big man Caleb Swanigan has returned to the Portland Trail Blazers. The third-year player out of Purdue was taken with the 26th pick in the first round in 2017 by Portland, but failed to see significant time on the court during his short tenure here.
But now he’s back via the blockbuster trade from two weeks ago and is getting minutes off the bench thanks to a still depleted frontcourt. Knowing that the Blazers need big bodies as of right now (which hopefully someone nicknamed “Biggie” can provide), what can fans expect from Swanigan?
