Geoff Petrie was the first draft pick in franchise history, selected 8th overall in 1970.

The

professional basketball team based in Portland, Oregon. They play in the Northwest Division of the Western Conference of the National Basketball Association (NBA). The franchise was founded in the 1970–71 NBA season.[1] The team made their first draft pick in the 1970 NBA draft and have selected 279 players total.[2] The franchise won its only NBA championship in 1977, when the team was led by their 1974 first overall pick, Bill Walton, as well as multiple other former draft picks who went on to have their numbers retired by Portland. Many of the players selected have gone on to have accomplished careers while playing for the team. Clyde Drexler and Damian Lillard hold multiple Blazer records and are first in many stats. Along with Walton and Drexler, two other draft picks, Dražen Petrović and Arvydas Sabonis, went on to be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame
after their playing careers ended, with Petrović being inducted posthumously.

Portland has held the first overall pick four times, selecting Walton in 1974, LaRue Martin in 1972, Mychal Thompson in 1978, and Greg Oden in 2007. Three players drafted by Portland won the Rookie of the Year award. Geoff Petrie, the franchise's first ever draft pick, was named co-Rookie of the Year with Dave Cowens of the Boston Celtics in 1971. Sidney Wicks won the award the next season after being selected second overall in the 1971 NBA draft, and Lillard won in 2013 after being drafted sixth overall in the 2012 NBA draft.

First overall picks

The Blazers have had the first pick in the NBA draft four times in franchise history: 1972 (Martin), 1974 (Walton), 1978 (Thompson), and 2007 (Oden).

The Blazers have had the first pick in the

forward/center Mychal Thompson from Minnesota in 1978 after a trade the day before the draft with the Indiana Pacers to acquire the pick,[9] and most recently Greg Oden center from Ohio State in 2007.[8]

Martin spent his entire career in Portland, playing from 1972 to 1976, and averaged 5.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 0.7 assists in 271 games.

He averaged 16.7 points, 8.9 rebounds, and 3.4 assists in 551 games.[15] He is the franchise leader for total blocks (768) and second in defensive rebounds (3,389).[14] Oden had a lot of hype coming out of Ohio State, with a strong debate over who the Blazers should choose between him and Kevin Durant.[16][17][18] Oden was in Portland from 20072012, only playing in 82 games total due to an injury riddled career that began before he could even play an NBA game, as he had season-ending microfracture surgery before his rookie season began.[19][20] Oden averaged 9.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 0.6 assists per game.[19]

Rookies of the year

Portland has had four players named Rookie of the Year, three of whom were drafted by the team: Petrie, Sidney Wicks, and Lillard.[21] Wicks was drafted 2nd overall in 1971. He played with the team from 1971 to 1976, where he was a 4x All-Star. He averaged the most minutes played per game (38.8) in franchise history, as well as the second most rebounds per game (10.3), and he is tied for the second most triple-doubles (7).

Lillard was drafted 6th overall in

NBA Three-Point Contest in 2023, and NBA Teammate of the Year in 2021.[27] Lillard became the team's all-time scoring leader on December 19, 2022, passing Drexler.[28] Later that season, Lillard broke his own franchise record for points in a game, scoring 71 points and making 13 three pointers in a 131–114 victory over the Houston Rockets. At the age of 32, Lillard became the oldest player in NBA history to score 70 points in a game, and the only player age 30 or older to accomplish the feat.[29] Along with being the franchise scoring leader, Lillard is also the record holder for points per game (25.2), free throw percentage (.895), three point field goals (2,387), and made free throws (4,427). He is second for minutes played (27,942), field goals made (6,281), and assists (5,151).[14] Lillard averaged the aforementioned franchise high 25.2 points, along with 4.2 rebounds, 6.7 assists, and 3.1 three pointers made in 769 games.[27]

Drexler won at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona as a member of the Dream Team, and Lillard won at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.[32][33] Arvydas Sabonis won one gold and two bronze medals, winning one of the bronzes as a member of the Blazers while representing Lithuania in 1996 in Atlanta.[34]

He was a member of the championship team and part of the NBA All-Defensive Second Team in 1978. He averaged 9.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 1.2 steals in 486 games.[39] Porter was drafted 24th overall in the 1985 NBA draft and was a 2x All-Star.

He played from 19891991 in Portland, where he averaged 7.0 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in 95 games.[47] Sabonis was drafted #24 overall in 1986 NBA draft, but did not play for the Blazers until the 1995–96 NBA season at the age of 30. He was named NBA All-Rookie First Team and played with Portland until he retired from the NBA after the 2000–01 NBA season. Sabonis returned to the team for the 2002–03 NBA season after a season with Žalgiris before permanently retiring from the NBA.
