Donovan Clingan Continues Sophomore Ascent in Portland

Clingan is enjoying a breakout second season, averaging 11.8 points and 11.5 rebounds while anchoring the Blazers' defense. The 7-foot-2 center ranks third in the league in rebounds per game and has developed into a legitimate three-point threat, shooting 34% from deep this year. Despite a recent flagrant-2 ejection against Memphis, Clingan remains a vital starter, recently posting 18 points and 13 rebounds against Houston to secure his 25th double-double of the season.
