The Portland Trail Blazers have announced the radio play-by-play broadcaster Brian Wheeler will not make the upcoming four-game road trip with the team. Wheeler will be attending to health concerns, the same that forced him out of the broadcast chair for a 12-game span earlier this season. Veteran radio and television voice Scott Lynn will take over during Wheeler’s absence.
The press release from the Blazers follows:
