Freeland, who is an restricted free agent this offseason, averaged 3.5 points (on 49 percent shooting) and 4.0 rebounds in 13 minutes during the 2014-15 campaign. Freeland opened the season as a regular in the frontcourt rotation, but his workload ramped up after Robin Lopez suffered a broken hand on Dec. 15. In the Blazers' first game without Lopez, Freeland came off the bench but soon enjoyed an eight-game cameo in the starting five, averaging 5.1 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.2 blocks, and 0.8 assists in 22 minutes. The run came to a halt when Freeland sustained a strained right shoulder, which, compounded with a slightly torn right rotator cuff, extended his recovery timetable from two weeks to one and a half months. Upon his return on Mar. 1, he was used sparingly, logging double-digit minutes nine times, versus eight DNPs, in the last 25 contests of the regular season. His upcoming test of the free-agent market allows the Blazers to match any offer the Englishman receives. However, the organization could reveal its hand when the decision is made, one way or the other, on Chris Kaman's team option.
