The Portland Trail Blazers are set to enter the 2025-26 season with Jerami Grant still on the roster. That's not ideal for the Blazers by any means. However, the fact that Grant is still around makes it clear that they aren't willing to include significant draft capital to move him, which is a wise decision for general manager Joe Cronin at this point in Portland's rebuild.
Last summer, Aaron Fentress of The Oregonian stated that moving one of Grant or Anfernee Simons was "definitely the goal" for the Blazers. One year later, Portland finally accomplished that goal, sending Simons to the Boston Celtics for Jrue Holiday.
