John Tonje Signs Two-Way With Blazers | Portland Trail Blazers News

Avdija’s New Role with Lillard & Morant | Portland Trail Blazers News

Deni Avdija’s future with the Portland Trail Blazers hinges on how he adapts to a new, firepower-packed roster featuring Ja Morant and Damian Lillard. Last season, Avdija was constantly double-teamed, limiting his effectiveness and exposing the team’s lack of offensive creators. With Morant and Lillard now sharing the load, Avdija should get more space and easier looks — though chemistry with Morant may be tricky given their similar playstyles. Lillard, however, could be a perfect fit, using his pick-and-roll mastery to draw defenders and open up Avdija. This season, Avdija has a golden chance to prove he’s worth a bigger contract — and the Blazers’ new offense could be the stage he needs to shine.

His 45% three-point mark in Summer League and proven ability to score 18+ points in the G League make him a perfect fit for Portland’s shooting-focused rebuild. With a two-way deal, the Blazers get a developmental shooter without clogging their roster — a smart, low-risk move that signals serious intent to upgrade their perimeter game.
