Even though the 2023 NBA Draft is complete, the NBA offseason is not. The Portland Trail Blazers drafted G League Guard Scoot Henderson, Iowa forward Kris Murray, and New Zealand Breakers wing Rayan Rupert, but general manager Joe Cronin is most certainly not done adding to his team’s roster.
Free agency won’t begin in earnest until June 30, but Cronin said he’s “planted some seeds” in negotiations while he was scouring the league for trade partners before the draft.
As of June 24, though (making the safe assumption Portland signs all three of its draft picks), the Blazers have 13 players on their roster; that includes a $3 million team option for forward Kevin Knox and non-guaranteed or partially-guaranteed contracts for Trendon Watford, Jabari Walker, and Jeenathan Williams.
