Portland’s battle-tested guard with a comeback story and steady-floor leadership
David Carr’s biggest value is that he’s more than a stat line: Portland lists him as a guard who has already fought through a torn ACL and concussion setbacks, then earned back minutes with grit and poise[11]. In the 2021-22 season, he played 18 games for Portland and was part of a team that went 18-2 in that span, showing he can help stabilize a roster when healthy[7]. He fits best as a tough, experienced lead guard who brings resilience, ball control, and maturity.
