Bayless, 19, posted averages of 19.7 points (third in Pac-10), 2.7 rebounds and 4.0 assists while shooting 83.9% from the free throw line and 40.7% from 3-point range in his lone collegiate season at the University of Arizona. The 6-3, 200-pound guard earned Second Team All-Pac-10 and All-Freshman Team honors, was an Associated Press All-American Honorable Mention and was a finalist for the Wooden Award. A 6-9, 250-pound forward, Diogu, 24, averaged 5.6 points and 2.8 rebounds in 30 games for the Pacers last season. Originally selected by Golden State with the ninth overall pick in the 2005 NBA Draft out of Arizona State, Diogu holds career averages of 6.5 points and 3.3 rebounds in three seasons with the Warriors and Pacers. “We had a lot of flexibility heading into this year’s NBA Draft,” said Pritchard. “Ultimately though we only wanted to make moves that made our team better, both on and off the court. In acquiring Jerryd Bayless and Ike Diogu we think we achieved that. Bayless will make our backcourt more athletic. He’s a proven scorer and a tenacious competitor. In Diogu we have a young NBA player with a whole lot of potential that really helps fill a positional need for us. And, perhaps most importantly, both of these players fit our culture of character, hard work and winning attitudes. “It’s also never easy to trade away players, especially ones who’ve played a significant role in helping us get to where we are today. That certainly was the case with Jarrett Jack, who started 99 games for the Trail Blazers these past three seasons. I want to thank and acknowledge him and Josh McRoberts for their contributions to the club. We wish both of them nothing but the best for their bright NBA futures.” Jack, 24, played his first three NBA seasons in Portland, where he posted averages of 9.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists in 240 games. He shot 44.3% from the floor and 85.3% from the free throw line. The Trail Blazers originally acquired Jack in a 2005 Draft Day trade with Denver. McRoberts, 21, averaged 1.5 points and 1.3 rebounds in eight games his rookie 2007-08 season. Portland selected the Duke product with the 37th overall pick in the second round of the 2007 NBA Draft. The Trail Blazers selected Rush out of Kansas with the 13th overall pick in the 2008 NBA Draft. --
