Portland Trail Blazers Sign Mika Potter to Boost Roster Depth
The Portland Trail Blazers have announced the signing of Mika Potter, a 28-year-old forward standing 2.06 meters tall, to strengthen their squad ahead of the upcoming NBA season. Potter, who previously played for the Indiana Pacers, appeared in 47 games last season, averaging 9.7 points and 5 rebounds per game. Notably, he shot over 42% from beyond the three-point line, attempting an average of 3.6 three-pointers per game, all while playing 19.3 minutes per contest.
This move follows Portland's recent contract extension with Robert Williams and a major trade acquisition of Ja Morant, signaling the team's efforts to deepen their roster. Potter went undrafted but began his NBA career at age 23 with the Detroit Pistons during the 2021/22 season. He later spent time with the Utah Jazz before joining the Pacers. After a career-best season, Potter became a free agent and now embarks on his fourth NBA team with Portland.
The Trail Blazers continue to prepare strategically for the 2026/27 season, aiming to enhance their competitiveness with these roster additions.
