Trail Blazers News: UConn Champ, All-American Wing Projected to Portland in Mock Draft

The Portland Trail Blazers have a big summer ahead of them when it comes to some key personnel decisions. First, Portland will have four opportunities to add some young new talent under team control via the 2024 NBA Draft later this month. Ricky O'Donnell of SB Nation, in a new mock draft, unpacks the ideal selections for Rip City in the first round, where the club has a pair of lottery selections. With the No. 7 pick, O'Donnell projects that the Trail Blazers will select two-time University of Connecticut Huskies champion center Donovan Clingan.
