No. 26 Portland Trail Blazers (From CLE)- Ivan Rabb (California, SO, Power Forward)

Portland’s third first-rounder could grab them a potential steal in the NBA Draft. If he would’ve stayed in the NBA Draft last season, he probably would’ve been selected in the lottery. However, what’s done was done. He returned for a sophomore season at Cal.

Without fellow Golden Bear Jaylen Brown (No. 3 Overall 2016 Draft), Rabb drew a lot more double teams this season in the post, but solidified himself as a productive low-post threat.

Rabb, who averaged a double-double (14 points and 10.5 rebounds) on 51 percent shooting from the field, is a nice efficient player who can create his own offense in one-on-one situations. A nice fit for Portland who could ask him to come off the bench immediately.
