The Portland Trail Blazers are signing forward Drew Eubanks to a 10-day contract after averaging 9.3 points and 7.7 rebounds in three games for Portland, according to reports from League insider Adrian Wojnarowski.
Eubanks declared for the 2018 NBA Draft after a junior year campaign where Eubanks averaged 13.2 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks per game. After going undrafted, Eubanks signed a Summer League deal with the Spurs. He played well enough to garner a two-way deal from the organization. Eubanks went on to play four seasons in San Antonio, where he averaged 4.6 points and 4.0 rebounds per game.
This past February, Eubanks, Thaddeus Young and a 2022 second-round selection were traded to the Toronto Raptors for Goran Dragić and a 2022 first-round draft selection. He was eventually waived and remained unsigned until Portland picked him up.
