    You guys have been wanting a Giannis... Olshey says "Here ya go!"

    Portland now has the 13th pick from the 2016 Draft (Papagiannis), and the 17th pick (Baldwin).

    What? Even the Ducks weren't 100 per cent about recruiting this guy. He's got the agility of a walrus on stilts.

    Nurk vs. Papagiannis would be fun to watch in practice though. Maybe PA is attending practices and wanted some entertainment. I would've signed him for the lolz too.

    Gotta meet the league min of 14 on the roster (2-way contracts don't count). Trading Vonleh put us at 13. So, look for a revolving door of guys on 10-day contracts going forward. These will all be prorated min contracts that will keep us just under the tax threshold.
