PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -With the NBA draft looming, the Portland Trail Blazers have a lot more issues than just who to take with the 22nd pick.
The disarray is centered around Kevin Pritchard, who has been left squirming in the general manager’s seat for the past several months.
Pritchard has been considered one of the NBA’s best GMs, transforming the malcontent “Jail Blazers” of a few years back into one of the most promising young teams in the league.
But, for reasons that aren’t clear, Pritchard has fallen out of favor with billionaire owner Paul Allen, who has reportedly hired a headhunter to find a new GM.
The Blazers won’t confirm that a search firm has been hired.
