Gary Trent Jr.SG, Portland Trail BlazersGary Trent Jr. had a productive second season in 2019-20, jumping from 7.1 to an even 20.0 mpg and returning top-270/230 (8/9-cat) fantasy value.
Trent became a consistent rotation player when it became clear that Kent Bazemore wasn't getting the job done, and he should be in the mix to soak up Trevor Ariza's vacated minute when the season resumes. The sophomore chipped in 7.7 points, 0.7 steals and 1.5 threes per contest, and if he continues to improve he may be a viable selection in 20-team formats. Fantasy prospects aside, Trent's improvement is a big win for a cap-strapped Blazers squad.
