The Portland Trail Blazers continued to host workouts -- some solo, some group -- this week at their facility in Tualatin with just under two weeks to go before the 2022 NBA Draft.
After bringing Arizona guard Bennedict Mathurin and Memphis center Jalen Duren last Sunday and Monday, respectively, the Trail Blazers continued to host players expected to be selected in the first round at the end of the week Duke forward A.J. Griffin participated in solo workout Thursday followed by a group workout headlined by LSU forward Tari Eason on Friday.
Thursday’s workout was the first of the pre-draft process for Griffin, a 6-6, 222 pound forward who played 39 games for the Blue Devils his freshman season before declaring for the 2022 NBA Draft.
