Description

Who are the best fits on the current Trail Blazers roster among the top prospects in the 2022 NBA Draft?Starting at the top of the lottery we take a closer look at Auburn's Jabari Smith Jr., Duke's Paolo Banchero and Gonzaga's Chet Holmgren. Which of the consensus top three prospects would fit best with the Blazers and why that matters for a team like Portland.Then we drop down the lottery a bit to look at players in the 6-10 range that would be helpful for the Blazers. Iowa's Keegan Murray, Baylor's Jeremy Sochan and Duke's AJ Griffin could all be intriguing selections. But what about LSU's Tari Eason or Kentucky's Shaedon Sharpe? The Blazers will have plenty of tough choices if their pick falls outside of the top four in the draft.We close the show with a discussion of fit versus best player available and why a team like the Blazers needs to value fit over talent considering their current roster situation and their stated goals for the 2022-23 season.Music for Locked On Blazers by Drae Slapz.
