Portland Trail Blazersforward Trendon Watford had a strong showing at last month’sLas Vegas Summer League.
Through five games in Las Vegas, Watford averaged 13.6 points per game to go with 7.8 rebounds. He was also named championship game MVP after recording 19 points, seven rebounds, two assists, three steals and one block.
But will his Vegas showing parlay into a spot in the Blazers rotation next season?
Danny Leroux and Nate Duncan discussed it on their latest episode of theDunc’d On Podcast.
“He had a nice Summer League,” Duncan said. “I heard some things about him being in the rotation, but I don’t see it.”
In his rookie season, Watford averaged 7.6 points and 4.1 rebounds per game. His opportunities came closer to the end of the year when the majority of the Blazers rotation was sidelined.
但随着玩家像Jerami格兰特和加里佩顿II entering the mix, along with Nassir Little re-entering the rotation, is there a spot for Watford in next year’s rotation?
