Portland Trail Blazers
This will certainly not be a priority for the Portland Trail Blazers when looking at what they might be dealing with but it is always possible.
The front office in Portland has been dealing with rumors surrounding Damian Lillard for over a year now. At this point, they are going to continue until something gets done. Lillard has said the right things to the media but it is still possible that he decides to request a trade.
If this happens, the Trail Blazers will officially be in rebuilding mode. If not, they might want to add some more pieces all over the floor.
Portland was expected to finish near the bottom of the league this season after seeing Lillard miss a majority of the season. Now, they will likely have one of the top picks in the 2022 NBA Draft to pair with Lillard, assuming he will be around. Montrezl Harrell could be an underrated addition to the lineup.
The Trail Blazers have struggled in the frontcourt for years now. This seems to always be an area where they lack, given the talent that has been in the backcourt. Harrell would bring a bit of stability to the group of forwards.

This would be a match for both sides. Harrell would be able to take advantage of playing with one of the best players in the league while the Trail Blazers nail down the frontcourt.
