What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Jerami Grant: “I love Chauncey. I think he’s a great coach. He’s still learning, he’s still figuring things out, but we want to play for him. As a coach, people overlook that aspect of things. Having someone you want to go war with every night is huge.” – 6:25 PM

I asked Damian Lillard if there are players out there he is as confident that the Blazers can acquire as he was last offseason with Jerami Grant. He said there are some that want to come to Portland. But them wanting to play with him and it happening are two different things. pic.twitter.com/zl2jrpWYHl – 6:09 PM

More on this storyline
Grant is currently eligible to extend with the Blazers for up to four years, $112.7 million. He became eligible to sign it in January when his six-month trade restriction expired, but he confirmed that he plans on entering free agency instead. He can earn up to the maximum as a free agent, either five years $233.2 million with Portland, or four years, $172.9 million with another team. -via HoopsHype / April 1, 2023
Sean Highkin: Chauncey Billups says the main guys — Damian Lillard, Jusuf Nurkic, Jerami Grant, etc. — haven’t officially been shut down and are considered day-to-day. “We’re just being cautious.” Do with that what you will. I’m just telling you what he said. -via Twitter @highkin / March 26, 2023
Sean Highkin: Blazers say Jerami Grant is questionable and Damian Lillard is probable tomorrow vs. Boston. -via Twitter @highkin / March 16, 2023
