These have been going around in the different subreddits and i thought it would be fun to bring it here. Who is the most underrated player in franchise history?

Maybe Zach Randolph? Dude was a stud for us and even made a couple all star teams in Memphis. Don’t really see him get talked about these days

Lamarcus. Bridge between broy and dame. Was a beast on offense and stepped up. Back to back 40 point road playoff performances.

This is tough. Joel Przybilla? Marcus Camby?

Andre Miller.
Mostly had to look at the other categories and see if like a guy I picked fit the other spots. But Andre miller seems to have been pretty under rated with his time with us.
Ki-Wi-Hi
Probably Maurice Lucas. He never shows up on best of lists for the franchise. Or Kermit Washington

Geoff Petrie, the first player ever drafted by the Blazers, was an absolute bucket. He played before the three point line and still averaged 22 points per game, including nearly 25 per game as a rookie. He dropped 51 points twice in a three-month span in 1973, a scoring record that lasted 22 years.
If there had been a three point line, Petrie absolutely had the range to hit them, similar to Jerry West.
I feel like Petrie is often overlooked because he injured his knee and had to retire at age 28, right before the championship run. It’s one of the saddest stories in franchise history.

Is saying CJ crazy? I don’t know but it’s the first name that came to mind.

Probably Wes given the meltdown in the 14-15 season.
