Do the Portland Trail Blazers Still Have Room for Dorell Wright?

Dorell Wright is a heady veteran, a vocal leader, and was just blossoming when his season was cut short by injury. Do the developing Blazers have room to re-sign a player with those qualities or do they need more production for their money?

When Dorell Wright joined the Portland Trail Blazers in 2013, he was expected to upgrade a historically bad bench as an affordable small forward/stretch power forward. His job description was hitting the corner 3-pointer and providing veteran leadership while doing it.

After the 2013-14 season, Wright was asked how his first year as a Blazer went.
