Trail Blazers president Larry Miller said Tuesday that the team is "confident" they'll agree to a contract extension with LaMarcus Aldridge.

"It's a process, as (Blazers general manager) Kevin (Pritchard) has said, and we're continuing to go through the process. There's no doubt that we want L.A. here and I'm certain L.A. wants to be here. I'm confident that we'll get it done at some point, but it's just going through the process," Miller told the Columbian.

"Kevin was out of the country and I think L.A.'s agent (Arn Tellem) was on vacation. So I think that now that everybody's back, we'll get things going again."
