Hoop Talk Ep. 85: NBA Draft Needs: Portland TrailBlazers

The Basketball Podcast BY FANS, FOR FANS!With the NBA Draft just over a month away, the 2020 NBA Lottery has been set and the draft order is officially locked in. With that, each team prepares for October as some of the best college and overseas prospects all await that fateful day in hopes of hearing their name called by Commissioner Adam Silver. In this edition of the Hoop Talk Podcast, the guys take a look at the Portland TrailBlazers. This Portland team was the darling of the NBA Bubble as they fought themselves back from being the 11th seed up to the 8th seed propelling themselves over the Memphis Grizzlies. Led by Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum, this team has a litany of offensive threats on the roster like Rodney Hood, Jusuf Nurkic and even Carmelo Anthony who they may look to retain in free agency this offseason. We also saw promising play from Gary Trent Jr. as a two-way wing worth featuring more in the team's rotation. They most recently acquired Robert Covington from the Houston in exchange for the 16th overall pick but that does not mean they will not still attempt to make a play at one of this year's prospects to help bolster up their depth at small forward. Who do the guys think the Portland TrailBlazers could be eyeing in the 2020 NBA Draft Class?
