Jerami Grant

Averaging 20+ points per game over the four-year stretch from 2020-21 to 2023-24 left Jerami Grant assured of bragging rights, but if 2024-25’s opening week proved anything, it’s that the Portland Trail Blazers swingman was anything but satisfied. Riding high after 16 and 34-point performances to open the campaign, Grant stays aggressive, requesting the rock before taking Jordan Hawkins for a ride with a half-spin, pump-fake, fallaway jumper combination along the right baseline. The back-to-back games against the New Orleans Pelicans served the veteran well, as he produced yet another superb showing, recording 28 points (on 9-of-17 shooting), five rebounds, two steals, four blocks, and two 3-pointers. The Portland Trail Blazers followed Grant’s lead, riding his team-high scoring output to their first win of the regular season on October 27, 2024.
