Dorell Wright believes he will compete for a starting spot on the Portland Trail Blazers, but he admits a role as a sharpshooter off the bench is more probable and could further help the team.

"I know what I can do. I know what I can bring," Wright said. "But I see myself as a guy who comes in off the bench; knocking down threes, being a stretch-four."

Wright feels chemistry will be a major key for the Blazers.

"When you're coming off the bench, you gotta be ready right away, you gotta have 2-3 heat packs on your legs and be ready at all times," he said. "You gotta be ready, you always gotta be ready."
