Exclusive 2022-23 Portland Trail Blazers Roster

[42N8Bounce]

Man, things move fast around here. Here's the update with the signing of Nurkic -



CAP summary -

Since Bledsoe's full contract puts the Blazers over the apron, I'll assume he is waived and only $3.9M apply to the CAP.



Unofficial / Assumed:
- A Simons signing
- J Nurkic signing
- G Payton II signing
- Jabari Walker Signing
- E Bledsoe waived
- Signing of a vet minimum

That puts the Blazers $1.65M under the Apron.

 

[Freshtown]

Looks like 5-8 seed team.

 

[blazerfan11]

Looks like 5-8 seed team.

That's why they play the games.

 

[Natebishop3]

Looks like 5-8 seed team.

Right back into our comfortable spot.

 

[Charcoal Filtered]

Eubanks coming back!

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Looks like 5-8 seed team.

Yeah if after the deadline we were told the next years team is adding Grant, Payton, and a rookie from high school I'm not sure I'd bet on us to make the playin.

I think Nurk's number should be 15,625,000 (70M/4.48).

 

[PtldPlatypus]

So, either Walker is only getting a 2-way, or we're not using our BAE.

I don't think anyone expected the Blazers to make their big moves through free agency. We might want to give Cronin a few more weeks to see what he does in the way of a trade. I'm pretty sure that there will be one.

He might get the Blevins spot.

The hard cap makes any trade extremely hard. We'd have to send out Hart in a 1:1 swap for a wing or big. We can't make a consolidation trade.

 

[B-Roy]

Latter. Cheap.

 

[Cugel]

roster has playin tourney and first round exit written all over it. pains me to say it.

 

[illmatic99]

so about 2.2 mil under the apron to add another minimum if we so wish.

 

[illmatic99]

Does this look right?

Guards:
Dame, Ant, Payton

Wings:
Hart, Nas, Grant, Winslow, Sharpe

Bigs:
Nurk, Eubanks, Watford

Scrubs who won't sniff PT:
Brown, Didi, Johnson

Walker?

 

[illmatic99]

Walker?

add him to the scrub list

 

[LayneStaley]

This roster is depressing, 3 months of arguing about trades to clear space and we end up starting the season like this? Sharpe better be the second coming cause I see us at number 8 in the west right now, maybe 9.

 

[Freshtown]

Assuming we’re done I’m disappointed. After all the conversations about trades we walk away with nothing.

 

[B-Roy]

We walked away with Grant.

 

[Natebishop3]

Dame got two of his guys. Grant and GP2. So if the team flops next year, it's on him.

 

[42N8Bounce]

I think Nurk's number should be 15,625,000 (70M/4.48).

Good catch. Updated.

 

[blazerfan11]

Ok. Last season we had to intentionally tank to miss the play-in.

 

[Natebishop3]

Yeah but only because there was like... what.... 5 other teams tanking as well? And we had a very easy SOS at the end of the season.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Right now I see these 10 getting the bulk of the minutes to start the season

Dame-GP
Ant-Hart
Little-Winslow
Grant-Watford
Nurk-Eubanks

We need a C/PF combo player to move ahead of Watford/Eubanks in the depth chart

 

[42N8Bounce]

And updated again with the signing of Drew Eubanks -



Updated CAP numbers -



I think we're still waiting for the Grant trade to become official. Not sure what's holding that up.

All of the Free Agent signings can't become official until July 6.

Unresolved:
- Waive E Bledsoe to make room for all of the recent signings.
- Sign Jabari Walker to a full contract or 2-way.

 

[illmatic99]

if we give jabari a regular contract, we have 0 open roster spots.

 

[B-Roy]

People are ignoring the obvious, but if you really want to balance the roster...........trade one of Dame/Ant.
