The Portland Trail Blazers are expected to seriously pursue Pistons forward Jerami Grant in the offseason, sources said. Armed with the Pelicans’ 2022 first-round draft pick, the Trail Blazers will discover the choice to make when it falls between No. 5 and 14 in the June draft. If the choice does not fall in that area and this offseason moves to Portland, the organization’s package falls behind competing teams that are pursuing Detroit’s versatile forwards. Grant is eligible for a four-year, $ 112 million contract extension in the offseason.

Rod Beard: #Pistons Jerami Grant said he spoke to GM Troy Weaver and he was told well before the deadline that he would stay in Detroit: “I’m a Piston. That’s what I want to do. – through Twitter @detnewsRodBeard / February 10, 2022 Omari Sankofa II: May be obvious at this point but Jerami Grant stays with the Pistons, several sources confirm @freepsports. No dealers make sense of the end of Detroit. – through Twitter @omarisankofa / February 10, 2022 Meanwhile, the Portland Trail Blazers are reportedly in talks with Jerami Grant after they traded CJ McCollum as they watch the roster change around Damian Lillard. League executives are still monitoring to see if Lillard’s feelings change while staying in Portland, but for now, the Blazers are looking for win-now movements. -via Action Network / February 10, 2022
