Hyunjung Lee’s NBA Breakthrough | Portland Trail Blazers News

Hyunjung Lee, the South Korean guard who just signed a one-year, non-guaranteed deal with the Portland Trail Blazers, is making his NBA dreams feel real — after starring in Australia’s NBL championship, winning Finals MVP in Japan’s B.League, and flashing elite shooting at Davidson. Undrafted in 2022 due to a foot injury, Lee bounced between G League, Aussie and Japanese leagues before shining in San Antonio’s Summer League. Though he hoped for a two-way contract, this Exhibit 10 deal is a vital step — if he doesn’t make the roster, he’ll join the Rip City Remix. His arrival also makes him Portland’s second Asian-born player, boosting their international pipeline. Before training camp, he’ll suit up for South Korea at the Asian Games — proving his commitment to both country and career.
