The Blazers are also giving the Pistons the 46th pick in exchange for the 36th pick.

Grant has long been rumored to be a target for the Blazers, and the reception does just over 24 hours before Thursday’s NBA Draft.

Grant spent the last two seasons with the Pistons after signing a 3-year, $ 60 million contract. Now, he will play the final year of his contract with the Blazers before coming to free agency next summer, unless the Blazers sign him for an overtime.

Throughout his career, Grant has averaged 11.4 points with 35% three-point shots, 3.9 touchdowns, 1.3 assists and 1.1 blocks per game.
