As a result of the NBA Draft Lottery, the Portland Trail Blazers pick 3rd overall. For now, they own a second first round pick, 23rd overall, acquired from New York in the Josh Hart trade. Additionally, they have a second round pick, which is 43rd overall.
For the Blazers to get back into contention in the Western Conference, it’s essential for General Manager Joe Cronin to get this right. Either with the pick or trading it away for veteran help.
Last year, Portland selected Shaedon Sharpe sixth overall and Jabari Walker 57th. Both look to have a bright future with the team. Sharpe is a budding star.
