The NBA Draft is in full swing as Day 2 commences this afternoon. The Portland Trail Blazers have already made waves by selecting Connecticut center Donovan Clingan with the 7th overall pick and making a trade with the Washington Wizards for small forward Deni Avdija. But the festivities are far from over, as Round 2 gets underway at 1:00 PM Pacific Time.

The hot topic of the day surrounds Bronny James, the son of NBA superstar LeBron James. Speculation has been swirling about whether Bronny will be drafted and if there is a chance he could end up playing alongside his famous father. While talks about joining forces have cooled down, the potential selection of Bronny will undoubtedly make headlines regardless. Keep an eye out for the Los Angeles Lakers, who hold the 55th pick in the order.

For the Portland Trail Blazers, the focus may not be on Bronny. Instead, they are expected to prioritize the best available players remaining on the board with their 34th and 40th picks overall. While the second round may not receive as much attention as the first round, this year's draft could prove nearly as significant. The absence of a clear standout player in the draft class means that these second-round selections present opportunities for teams to take risks on prospects with immense potential.

As always, we will keep you updated on both of Portland's picks, any additional trades, and all the excitement surrounding the draft. Join us in the Draft Day Thread at 1:00 PM Pacific Time to join in on the fun and chat about the latest proceedings.
