The Portland Trail Blazers continue to have interest in building around Damian Lillard, sources tell Kevin O’Connor of The Ringer.
The Blazers are open to exploring trade involving the No. 3 pick and also open to moving Anfernee Simons.
The No. 3 pick is considered a valuable selection considering the general consensus that the draft falls off after Victor Wembanyama, Brandon Miller and Scoot Henderson.
Jaylen Brown, Pascal Siakam and Mikal Bridges are logical trade candidates for the Blazers.
