Duop Reath - posts 14 points in finale Reath finished Sunday's 121-82 loss to the Kings with 14 points (5-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, one block and three steals in 24 minutes.
Impact Reath stepped in for Deandre Ayton (back), a role he has replicated several times this season. The team is locked into a contract with Ayton, but the numbers show he was effectively a downgrade from Jusuf Nurkic. Reath is 27 years old, which puts him at a slight disadvantage considering Portland's youth rebuild. He'll likely return to the squad as the backup center, however.

Dalano Banton - Drops 17 points in finale Banton racked up 17 points (6-26 FG, 0-15 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and three steals in 39 minutes before getting ejected from Sunday's 121-82 loss to the Kings.
Impact Banton came back to earth in the final game of the season, but there's no denying his prolific stat lines in the closing weeks of the season. Portland has a $2.2M team option for next season, snd his standout play may compel the organization to pick it up.

Kris Murray - Grabs 18 rebounds in final game Murray closed Sunday's 121-82 loss to the Kings with nine points (3-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 18 rebounds, one block and one steal across 44 minutes.
Impact Murray was the only recent starter to play in the season finale, and ehe set a career high with 18 rebounds in the blowout loss. the Iowa product may have not had many opportunities to impress during his rookie season, but Portland's bevy of injuries through out the year gave the first-round pick an opportunity to strut his stuff. There's little doubt that he'll play a major role in Portland's continuing youth rebuild.

Impact An abysmal shooting performance proceeded Banton's ejection, as he cemented himself in Trail Blazer history by becoming the first player to attempt 15 three-pointers without a make.

Impact Ayton will finish his sixth campaign with a career-low 55 appearances. The 25-year-old averaged 16.7 points and 11.1 rebounds in 32.4 minutes per contest when available, but attempting just 1.4 free-throw attempts per game and continuing to have a limited defensive impact loom over Ayton moving forward.
