The Trail Blazers appear to be on the upswing after making the playoffs for the first time in five years. They also have a new owner in Tom Dundon, who has drawn lots of scrutiny for the cost-cutting measures he implemented while Portland was in the postseason.

New details emerge on Trail Blazers' rejected offer for Anthony Davis.

Sources say that the Blazers also contacted Dallas during the season to gauge the Mavericks' interest in a Grant-centric package sweetened with draft capital in exchange for Anthony Davis. Trail Blazers GM Joe Cronin takes blame for 2-way players initially not traveling in playoffs: 'That was on me' Portland received flak after it was the only team to not send its two-way players on the road for the first weekend of this season's playoffs.

The Trail Blazers may be preparing to make some noise this offseason. Namely, Portland is “expected to emerge as a prime trade suitor” for Giannis Antetokounmpo, according to Jake Fischer of The Stein Line.

Anthony Davis has shared throughout the past few weeks that the Wizards may be bad, but there is a bright side to what they're doing.
