Analysis:

Among the Blazers' draft night acquisitions over the past three years, Crabbe is the sole Blazers player assigned to this year's Summer League squad. After making 15 appearances as a rookie in 2013-14, he inched into the rotation far more often last season, earning nine starts across 51 games. He was handed the majority of the spot nods during Nicolas Batum's absences, which he utilized to average 4.6 points (on 34 percent shooting), 2.7 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.8 three-pointers in 22 minutes. Crabbe's ability to contribute across the board makes him an intriguing prospect, but the 23-year-old remains behind Batum and CJ McCollum in Portland's wing rotation, meaning his minutes load in the upcoming campaign will be dependent upon the decisions of Wesley Matthews (Achilles) and Arron Afflalo as unrestricted free agents this summer.
