Ja Morant Expresses Openness to Any Role in Trail Blazers Backcourt

Portland Trail Blazers guard Ja Morant reaffirmed his readiness to contribute, stating he has no issue coming off the bench if it helps the team win. Portland's management retains high confidence in the two-time All-Star following his acquisition from Memphis, where he averaged 19.5 points and 8.1 assists over 20 games last season. Fully recovered from a prior elbow sprain, Morant is focused solely on helping Portland win.
