NBA Draft: Where Are The Blazers Picking?

With thePortland Trail Blazerssitting on the couch during theNBA Playoffs, fans are eyeing theNBA Draftin June for the closest thing to Blazers basketball during the offseason.

And, we almost know exactly where the Blazers will be picking during the draft.

While the team’s first selection in the lottery won’t be determined until May 17, we do know the pick will fall somewhere in the Top 10, with a 36 percent chance of landing in the first four picks.

The team’s pick it acquired from New Orleans at the Trade Deadline won’t convey until 2025, so the team remains with just one first rounder.

After the tiebreakers that were broken by the NBA on Monday, the Blazers landed with the 36th and 57th overall picks.

The 57th pick comes from theUtah Jazzvia the孟菲斯灰熊as part of the Joe Ingles trade.

There are only 58 picks in the draft this year after theMilwaukee BucksandMiami Heatwere forced to forfeit picks as part of tampering violations.

This means the picks become slightly more valuable, and it’s possible that even with the picks sitting where they are, it might not stay that way.
