PORTLAND, Ore. - The Portland Trail Blazers have come to terms with four players selected in last week’s NBA Draft including center Greg Oden, the No. 1 overall selection. Portland also signed Finnish guard Petteri Koponen, Duke forward Josh McRoberts and Florida guard Taurean Green. Terms of Oden’s deal were not disclosed, but according to the NBA’s collective bargaining agreement, Oden’s contract will be for two years, with the Trail Blazers having the right to pick up options for years three and four. Oden will join with LaMarcus Aldridge, Martell Webster and Sergio Rodriguez to headline Portland’s Summer League team, which begins play Friday against the Boston Celtics in Las Vegas. Koponen, who was the last pick in the first round, signed a waiver that will allow him to play summer league. McRoberts and Green will also participate in Portland’s five-game summer league schedule. Portland also has summer league battles set with the Dallas Mavericks (July 9), LA Lakers (July 11), and Phoenix Suns (July 14) before closing with Kevin Durant and the Seattle SuperSonics (July 15). All five of the Trail Blazers summer league games will be broadcast on Trail Blazers flagship station KXL 750 AM.
