The Portland Trail Blazers hold two potential lottery picks in the 2024 NBA Draft. If NBA standings remained static between now and the end of the season, and if all teams drafted in their organic order, the Blazers would hold the fifth and tenth overall selections.
Portland has plenty of young guards on the roster already. (see also: Scoot Henderson, Shaedon Sharpe, Anfernee Simons) They lack depth in the frontcourt. In the latest iteration of his 2024 NBA Mock Draft, Ricky O’Donnell of SBNation has Portland picking up an international forward and a center from Duke with their lottery bounty.
