One glaring weakness has plagued this year's team. Can the trade deadline fix it?
Entering the ‘25-’26 season, it was readily apparent that the Blazers’ three-point percentage was to be the club’s most glaring weakness after trading Anfernee Simons. Outside of scooping up an undrafted Caleb Love, general manager Joe Cronin did nothing to address the issue in the offseason, instead banking on measurable roster-wide improvements.
This shortcoming was fully realized just a handful of games into the season; until fairly recently, the Blazers oscillated between 29th and 30th place in team three-point percentage.
