The Portland Trail Blazers have a Shaedon Sharpe problem that's becoming difficult to ignore. He's an exceptionally talented and productive young wing, but his poor shooting have made him a questionable fit for a core that appears to be growing ahead of his schedule.
Although it's currently unclear if the Trail Blazers intend to trade Sharpe, their reported interest in Trey Murphy III seems to imply they're eyeing his replacement.
Portland drafted Sharpe in 2022 and have already signed him to a four-year, $90 million extension. As the team struggles to get over the hump and become a steady fixture in postseason discussions, however, the trade market will inevitably become a factor.
