Porter somehow managed to get overshadowed by his older brother despite being the only one on the floor this season. As a gifted interior scorer with legitimate three-point range, however, Jontay should be a valuable find late in the first round.

The Blazers don’t have much certainly at the center position. Zach Collins showed flashes as the season progressed, but might be better off playing power forward until his frame bulks up.

Porter would be a nice compliment, making smart passes out of the post and giving the Damian Lillard-C.J. McCollum duo an excellent screener who can both shoot and finish around the rim. Defense — especially in space — will be an issue, but Porter is physical in the paint and should get into better shape under an NBA training staff.
