The addition of Evan Turner further jumbles up the forward position for the Portland Trail Blazers, but Maurice Harkless has held his own when the opportunities have been given to him. In 14 regular season starts last year, Harkless averaged 11.9 points and 6.6 rebounds in 26.9 minutes, including a +12.2 plus/minus.

Furthermore, Harkless started all 11 playoff games and averaged 11 points and 5.1 rebounds in 24.7 minutes. Coach Terry Stotts may experiment his lineups with Turner and Allen Crabbe, but for now it's Harkless' time to shine.
