The 10 Trail Blazers will continue to rebuild but the direction is uncertain, Simmons and Ayton are in an awkward situation

June 22 According to the latest report by the well-known sports reporter Sam Amico, the Trail Blazers' work will still revolve around reconstruction next season, but the direction of the team's reconstruction is still uncertain.

The next offseason welcomes the Trail Blazers with 10 players qualified for early renewal. Sam Amico mentioned: "The uncertainty of this lineup is enough to keep any management awake at night, but for General Manager Joe Cronin and his team, these choices are not just a matter of digital games and cap space. The key to this offseason is choice, vision, development, and the real puzzle of who is the real puzzle of the future blueprint."

Sam Amico mentioned several people in his report, one is Anfernee Simons, who is the model of young guards that most teams dream of - reliable, efficient, capable of dribbling, shooting, and having a mind. But he is 26 years old and is no longer a "potential stock". If the team intends to let Scudt Henderson and Sheden Sharp carry the banner, then Simmons may have to be sent away.

And DeAndre Ayton can score data, grab rebounds when he wants to, and occasionally perform at the dominant level. But he also blocked the starting path of 2024 No. 7 pick Donovan Klingen. The problem now is that Ayton's trade value may be less than his actual role in a team that is still learning how to win.

Sam Amico predicts that the Blazers may place the team's future on Sheden Sharp and Toumani Camara. Sharp's talent can be seen with the naked eye: it is amazingly bouncing, can attack independently, and is like a future All-Star when warming up. In the latter, Sam Amico expects the Trail Blazers may offer him a four-year, $90 million contract extension. But Kamala may also choose to wait and bet on himself, fight for another year, and see if any team is willing to place 100 million orders by July next year.
