Pendergraph Lands with Trailblazers

Posted Jun 26, 2009
Sure, every player selected in the NBA draft will say that he’s happy just
to get drafted. Yet, few of those individuals can truly say that were
selected by their favorite team. Jeff Pendergraph can claim that distinction.
The former ASU forward was initially selected by the Sacramento Kings, just
to be immediately traded to his desired destination - the Portland Trail
Blazers.
The 6-9 245 Jeff Pendergraph was the first pick of the second round (No. 31
overall), and following his selection he was traded to the Portland Trail
Blazers, who gave up guard Sergio Rodriguez, the draft rights to former
Washington forward Jon Brockman (No. 38 overall) and cash.
In interviews leading up to the draft, Pendergraph didn’t hide his
attraction to the Trailblazers. “I really like Portland,” he said in a
recent DevilsDigest.com interview, “because I know coach Nate McMillan
(father of ASU guard Jamelle McMillan), they have a good team and everything
about that atmosphere is cool.”
Pendergraph culminated his four-year career with Arizona State averaging 12.6
ppg, 7.5 rpg, 1.04 bpg and a 58 percent shooting percentage. As the team's
senior leader, he led the nation in field goal shooting at 66 percent and
earned first-team All-Pac-10 honors. He set school records for games played
(126) and started (120).
Pendergraph, along with James Harden were the first tandem of Sun Devils to
be drafted in the same year, since 1983 when Byron Scott and Paul Williams
were selected.
簡單來說,我們拓荒者也是Pendergraph最想要去的地方
oh我越來越愛他了!
