#Blazers RT “@CHold: Today's workout: PF/C Kyle O'Quinn, G Scott Machado, G Kim English, C Henry Sims, G Maalik Wayns, G Charlie Westbrook.”

Cool - I like the option of O'Quinn, Machado, or English for the 2nd rounders (along with Crowder).
 
Video is up of these guys shooting around.
 
Olshey and company are going to houston this weekend to watch Freeland practice and play with GB National team.
 
Oakland point guard? Sounds good to me. Oakland has produced some of the best. And would have had one of the best off guards if JR Rider could ever have pulled his head out of his ass.
 
English has a chance to be a steal. Pure, pure shooter with some size. Not much else. ,though

The Portland Trail Blazers pre-draft workout set for this Wednesday, will feature what Trail Blazers general manager, Neil Olshey, considers “lottery-range players.”

With Olshey at the helm, he has implemented a policy of not revealing the names of the prospects prior to workouts.


However, CSNNW.com has spoken with Duke guard Austin Rivers and Washington guard Tony Wroten and both have said they'll be participating in Wednesday's workout with the Trail Blazers.
It was speculated that Kentucky forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist would be in attendance as well, but his agent, Rich Paul, says Kidd-Gilchrist will not workout for the Trail Blazers.

Kidd-Gilchrist – a projected top three pick – told CSNNW.com at the Chicago combine that he would workout for the Trail Blazers at some point, but he could have been mistaken.

Rivers is currently projected to go to Phoenix at No. 13 and Wroten to Charlotte at No. 31, according to Draft Express.
 
Little tidbit from the article

Kansas forward Thomas Robinson is expected to go second overall to the Bobcats, and while it’s difficult to decipher smokescreens from truth this time of year, the Wizards have made it clear they won’t let Michael Kidd-Gilchrist fall beyond them at No. 3.
