Southerland was placed on waivers by the Blazers on Monday, The Oregonian reports.

Analysis:

Southerland entered camp on a non-guaranteed deal, but his chances of landing a spot on the Blazers' final roster were slim with 15 guaranteed contracts already on the roster. After failing to take the court during the team's first three preseason tilts, he likely saw the writing on the wall and will now ink a contract with an overseas club.
