Portland’s steady two-way guard with real starter value
In the 2024-25 season, Chris Austin averaged 10.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 31 games for Portland, while shooting 46.8% from the field and 35.4% from three[2][15]. At 6-foot-4 and 205 pounds, he brings a sturdy, efficient guard game: he can score without needing to dominate the ball, chip in on the glass, and hold up physically on both ends[15]. The stat line says “reliable,” and the film/usage hint at a mature, rotation-ready wing guard who fits well next to higher-usage creators[1][9][15].
