Blazers Host 7 Rookies for Workout, Including Duke’s Jared McCain

Daniss Jenkins (St. John’s)

Dillon Jones (Weber State)

Spencer Jones (Stanford)

Jared McCain (Duke)

Noah Penda (JA Vichy-Clermont)

Armel Traore (Ada Blois)

The most notable name on the list is McCain, who could be the pick for the Blazers at No. 14. McCain led Duke all the way to the Elite 8 in his lone year with the Blue Devils, averaging 14.3 points per game while shooting 41.4 percent from beyond the 3-point line.
