Prior to Thursday's game versus the Heat in Miami, Trail Blazers head coach Terry Stotts, along with Damian Lillard, Enes Kanter and Anfernee Simons, discussed the trade earlier in the day that resulted in Portland acquiring guard/forward Norman Powell from the Toronto Raptors in exchange for Rodney Hood and Gary Trent Jr.
TERRY STOTTS
"Losing Rodney and Gary is tough. They’ve been with us for over two years, they’re good guys, good players, good teammates and we’re going to miss having them around. When you go to the gym and you enjoy working with the people that you work with, it’s tough to lose those guys.
