I don't see it, no rich cousin, probably won't last two 2-way contract. Keljin still the GOAT of Portland's 2-way.
Interesting...I had missed those reports. Looking into it after reading your post, I just now saw an article mentioning that he was already planning on losing weight to try to be more effective (quicker?) at the PF spot, but I doubt that was the way he wanted to do it. I see that he only played 2 games in the preseason, with questionable play quality to say the least. It will be very interesting to see how effective he is in that role and in his current physical condition.
Just heard the Wolves announcers talking about how long he has been sick. He lost family during Covid and I think he was taking it super seriousz
He's signing with Portland on a two-way deal... https://www.nba.com/blazers/news/trail-blazers-sign-john-butler-jr-to-two-way-contract
Mods delete/merge. I saw there was a report about it a few days ago, but it's just being announced today, so it's showing as news in my feed....
