The Portland Trail Blazers have shored up their bench depth ahead of Thursday's Feb. 5 trade deadline. ESPN's Shams Charania reports that Portland is offloading the contract of injured deep-bench center Duop Reath and two second-round draft picks to the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for sharpshooting 6-foot-8 combo guard Vit Krejci. Per Michael Scotto of HoopsHype, Atlanta is getting its own 2027 second-rounder back in the deal, plus the New York Knicks' 2030 second.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Portland Trail Blazers reserve center Yang Hansen walked off the court on his own after a scary collision and head injury midway through the fourth quarter against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night. Hansen scrambled for a loose ball under the Blazers' basket with 6:55 remaining and was trying to pass it out when Golden State's Will Richard made contact to the back of Hansen's head with his knee.

The Portland Trail Blazers have reportedly found a new owner after years of uncertainty, marking a significant turning point for the franchise and its fans.

"Five years ago, when I was a younger man, I had a great interest in being a part of the Portland Trail Blazers franchise. However, at my current age, I can confirm that I no longer have interest in acquiring the team," Knight said in a statement via Nike.
