The Portland Trail Blazers chased free agent Mario Hezonja in free agency but ended up losing him to the New York Knicks. According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, Hezonja earned a one-year, $6.5 million contract from New York.
The Knicks and Hezonja close out a tough recruitment, where several teams -- including Portland, Sacramento and Memphis -- competed for a fifth overall pick from the 2015 NBA Draft. Hezonja was drawn to coach David Fizdale, after going thru several coaching changes in Orlando.
