One of the storylines that has popped up over and over again since the end of the first round of the NBA playoffs has been that the Portland Trail Blazers will pursue a point guard this offseason.
The latest chapter in this particular rumor is that the Blazers are seeking to move up in the draft to get Davidson’s Stephen Curry, the junior who averaged basically 26 points and six assists for the Little Team That Could.
Most mock drafts have Davidson going somewhere between five and eight, with the Knicks being named more than a few times. New York is also looking for a point guard, and has been linked to talks involving Sergio Rodriguez.
While Rodriguez alone will not make this happen, the idea of Curry in Portland is an intriguing one – one that Kevin Pritchard could no doubt find a way to swing.
