Blazers bolster frontcourt depth amid Yang Hansen uncertaintyThe Blazers may have a similar logjam in the frontcourt, but that's more about the uncertainty after Clingan than anything about him starting. They had to bring in Branden Carlson, Micah Potter, and Jeremy Sochan to compete for frontcourt depth because even Robert Williams III and Yang Hansen weren't enough. That's the premium they continue to pay in the Hansen draft gamble, as Portland is essentially down a roster spot every season until he can contribute. The opportunity cost of the initial Hansen draft gamble was Cedric Coward, or whoever Portland actually would've taken themselves with the No. Right now, they're looking at Vit Krejci, who struggled in his Blazers season debut, and Sidy Cissoko, who can't space the floor and still has overall growing pains at 22 years old.
