Trail Blazers Sign Guard Luis Montero
 

The Portland Trail Blazers have signed guard Luis Montero, it was announced today by President of Basketball Operations Neil Olshey.

Montero, 22, worked out for the Trail Blazers prior to the NBA Draft and is on the team’s 2015 NBA Summer League roster. 

Playing for Westchester Community College in 2013-14, Montero averaged 15.6 points (52.9% FG, 43.7% 3-PT, 67.2% FT), 5.9 rebounds and 3.0 assists.

A native of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, Montero (6-7, 185) played high school basketball at Wilbraham & Monson Academy in Massachusetts.

Portland tips off its NBA Summer League schedule tonight vs. Boston at 5 p.m. (Pacific).

 

ugh...this makes it hurt even more.  Clearly someone who could've helped us this season.

 

 

He wouldn't have been here this season regardless ...

He would have been here for this season if his JUCO coaches didn't screw up so badly, that they had to cancel basketball last season.

 

I suppose he ultimately decided he didn't want to go back to a JUCO for this year,  and then on to USF for two additional years, since he was already 22 and he knew that there was serious NBA interest in him.

 

Good luck to him.

Don't blame him a bit ... just invest those dolares wisely.

Dammit!

 

This was the ONE recruit I really really really wanted. Oh well, guess I wasn't the only one who saw his potential.

 

Good luck at Portland, Mr. Montero, and remember that when your playing days are over and you want to get that degree, USF is a great school to go to as a SOTA (student over traditional age)

 

Go Bulls!

This kid is getting playing time on a NBA team in his first year, not very much, but still. This would have been huge if he could have gotten here. And to think that Antigua is getting guys of this caliber to commit in his first couple of years.

But no one will remember COA for the get that decided to go pro. Even though I think it's a huge testament to his efforts recruiting.

I remember COA tweeting at the time that Montero was "a none and done."

RE:  Revised Thread Title

He could visit USF at some point.  As a visitor.  So he'd be here then.  :whistle:

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
