Blazers' answer to the Jerami Grant problem is painfully obvious

The Portland Trail Blazers have a massive Jerami Grant problem on their hands. Last season, Grant averaged 14.4 points and 3.5 rebounds, shooting an inefficient 37.3 percent from the field. That's not ideal, especially considering that Portland is set to pay him $102.6 million over the next three years.

Grant himself admitted to having a down season, and should be due for positive regression in 2025-26. But he'd have to significantly improve to justify that contract under the new CBA.

Not too long ago, the Blazers had a greedy and unrealistic asking price of two first-round picks to trade Grant.
