The Trail Blazers are signing free agent big man Devontae Cacok to an Exhibit 10 contract, reports Shams Charania of The Athletic (Twitter link).
Cacok, who will turn 26 next month, spent the 2021/22 season with the Spurs, first on a two-way contract and then on a rest-of-season deal. He became an unrestricted free agent this summer when the team didn’t issue him a qualifying offer.
A former Laker, Cacok appeared in 15 games last season with the Spurs, averaging 3.1 PPG and 2.8 RPG in 8.1 minutes per contest. The forward/center saw more action at the G League level for San Antonio’s affiliate, piling up 18.7 PPG and 11.8 RPG in 37 total NBAGL games (29.5 MPG) for the Austin Spurs.
Because Portland doesn’t have a G League team, Cacok’s Exhibit 10 contract won’t put him in line for a bonus, but it does make him eligible to have his deal converted into a two-way contract before the start of the season. Currently, the Blazers have one two-way slot open, with Brandon Williams filling the other.
Jared Rhoden and Isaiah Miller are already on Exhibit 10 deals with the Blazers, and Olivier Sarr is reportedly set to join them.
Which former/current Portland duo would you rather have on your team, Nic Batum/Rudy Fernandez 11, Ant Simons/Shaedon Sharpe 23, Bob Gross/Lionel Hollins 77, Martell Webster/Travis Outlaw 08 or Brian Grant/Damon Stoudamire 98? Rank a top3 if possible…
Martell truly embarassing both CJ Miles & Kyle Korver in truly 1 of the greatest qtrs any nba player has ever had.. link to m.youtube.com
link to m.youtube.com … he’s no Bob Ross (GOAT), but Bob Greezy aka Bob Gross is 1 of the great Trailblazers ever & its largely bc of his performance vs Dr J & Philly in this series
Youngster straight up ruined Trae’s career night with a career night of his own. This was actually sort of a turning point for the Hawks tho. So thanks for lighting us up I guess? link to m.youtube.com
This is BGrant keeping Jermaine O’Neal firmly planted on the bench & leading his team to a big gm2 W over JKidd & the Suns. These “lockout” Blazers are still 1 of my favorite teams ever. They woulda won title if not for an incredible last sec shot by Sean Elliott too. Other worldly passing by the Wizard & Arvydas here… link to m.youtube.com
Horribly managed for Dames whole time. They still are clueless. I could do a better job
The obvious answer is the ones that helped them win their only title. Gross and Hollins and I really wouldn’t want any of the rest of them.
