Blazers upgrade guard depth with Vit Krejci in swap for Duop Reath

Portland traded injured center Duop Reath to Atlanta for guard Vit Krejci, a low-cost, two-year addition that fits the Blazers' length-and-shooting mold. Krejci, 6'8 with a quick release, has shot around 42% from three this season and can play as a secondary passer and floor-spacer, though his defense is modest. The move gives Portland bench depth and future flexibility with an inexpensive contract, while Reath’s expiring deal would have limited value next season.
