3) Anthony Lamb: A young prospect with upside

Acquiring Anthony Lamb would be a forward-thinking move for the Blazers. Lamb, a young and promising talent, has shown flashes of potential in his limited NBA minutes. His ability to stretch the floor with his shooting, combined with his size, makes him a matchup problem for opposing teams.

Lamb’s youth means he still has room to grow and develop. Under the proper guidance and with consistent minutes, he could blossom into a reliable rotation player for the Blazers. His energy and hunger could also invigorate the team, especially during the grueling middle parts of the season.

With the Blazers building a young core around Scoot Henderson, Shaedon Sharpe and Anfernee Simons, Lamb could fit into their long-term plans nicely.

Signing Lamb would round out the three position nicely, with Thybulle earning the starting role and Little and Lamb rotating in.

While Thybulle is the most likely starter at the three for the Blazers, adding any of these mentioned small forwards would significantly bolster their roster and chances in the competitive Western Conference.
