The 2022 NBA Draft is just over two months away and the Trail Blazers are in position to significantly reshape their roster once the clock starts. Unlike the last year, the Blazers enter draft night with at least one first-round pick in their possession.
Depending on how CJ McCollum and the Pelicans finish, the Blazers could come away with a second pick in the first round. If New Orleans qualifies for the traditional 16-team postseason field, Portland will receive a first-round pick in a future draft. Even if the Pelicans miss the playoffs, the Blazers are not out of the woods.
