NBA Rumors: 3 Players that the Portland Trail Blazers could sign this summer

#2 Robert Covington

Robert Covington enjoyed a strong season with the Minnesota Timberwolves

Following a disappointing season, the Timberwolves are potentially facing a rebuild this summer, and Bleacher Report believes that Robert Covington could be a potential summer target for Portland:

Robert Covington is borderline untouchable if the Timberwolves are trying to make the playoffs. He's one of the league's best trade assets if they're content to enter a quasi-rebuild.

Two first-round picks and Harkless is a doable price for the Blazers. They can flip No. 25 as an actual player and include next year's selection. And if Minnesota needs more, Portland shouldn't be opposed to throwing in Anfernee Simons or, more preferably, Skal Labissiere and a 2022 second-rounder.

Covington was among the Timberwolves' best performers during the 18-19 season, averaging 14.5 points and 5.7 rebounds per game. He is under contract until 2022, and he is owed $35 million over the next three seasons.
