Description
We're talking swing players on the Portland Trail Blazers in today's episode. This isn't the best players on the roster but the player's whose performances bad or good will determine how competitive the Blazers can be this season.First up is Nassir Little, a budding 3-and-D wing that could start at small forward and change Portland's playoff chances with a breakout campaign.Then we have Shaedon Sharpe, the mystery man. If Sharpe struggles as a rookie it likely won't impact the win/loss column too dramatically in Portland, but if he's ready to contribute at a high level in year one then he likely raises the team's ceiling more than anyone else on the roster.Finally, new acquisition Jerami Grant might be the most impactful player on the roster. He's the answer to so many of Portland's challenging matchup questions and if he fits in well he'll solve things quickly. If Grant doesn't fit, the Blazers could end up struggling without many obvious solutions elsewhere on the roster. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
