Blazers sign Rondae Hollis-Jefferson to second 10-day contract
The Portland Trail Blazers have signed forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson to a second 10-day contract, it was announced today by president of basketball operations Neil Olshey. Hollis-Jefferson, 26, has appeared in two games for the Trail Blazers, averaging 2.0 points, 0.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 6.0 minutes.
Trail Blazers guard Norman Powell says he’s never been around a teammate that participated in Ramadan, but he had heard about Kanter’s practice before arriving in Portland. “It’s amazing to see,” Powell said. “I know it’s because of religious beliefs and hopefully he does what he needs to do and still able to perform. I tip my hat to him for being able to do that.” Kanter won’t be the only Trail Blazer fasting while playing competitive basketball. The Blazers have three Muslim players: Kanter, Jusuf Nurkic and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, the most of any NBA team.
Jason Quick: Blazers coach Terry Stotts said Jusuf Nurkic will play Sunday against Miami and that Rondae Hollis-Jefferson will play tonight against Detroit. Nurkic being held out tonight was for precautionary reasons after his knee swelled last week.
