For free agency, Brian and Steve discussed the teams with cap space that could pursue Powell in free agency. Are the Blazers still the frontrunners to retain Powell? Which potential suitors should Portland worry about? In terms of long-term fit with the Blazers, Brian and Steve explain that it is imperative that Powell returns to his natural position at shooting guard. If that is a priority, Portland must address CJ McCollum’s future.
