Press Release -
The Portland Trail Blazers today re-assigned rookie forward Josh McRoberts to
their NBA Development League affiliate the Idaho Stampede, announced by Trail
Blazers' General Manager Kevin Pritchard. McRoberts was previously on
assignment with Idaho from Jan. 9-Feb. 3.
During his first assignment, McRoberts averaged 7.8 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.4
assists, and 26.5 minutes in eight games with the Stampede. This season in
the NBA, McRoberts is averaging 2.0 points, 0.8 rebounds, and 4.4 minutes in
five games with the Trail Blazers.
“Sending Josh back to Idaho will give him the best chance to develop as the
season winds down,” said Pritchard. “Getting the opportunity to play
extended minutes is an important step in his rookie season, and we saw good
results from his last trip there.”
Originally selected in the second round (37th overall) of the 2007 NBA Draft,
McRoberts played two seasons at Duke, where he averaged 10.8 points, 6.5
rebounds, and 2.4 assists in 69 games.
McRoberts is scheduled to join the Stampede on Friday, March 21, when the
team travels to Anaheim to take on the Arsenal.
