Following the recent implosion of the Oklahoma City Thunder, their assets have become available to the open market as they look to make the most of their historic war chest of draft assets. Danilo Gallinari was recently acquired in the trade that sent Paul George to the LA Clippers and should be at the top of the Portland Trail Blazers list of priorities.
Much like the often rumored trade target in Portland media Kevin Love, Gallinari is one of the league’s elite scorers that constantly struggles with injury issues. Fortunately, Gallinari comes with a much cheaper price tag attached and an expiring deal to avoid any long-term commitments.
