Jeremy Sochan Selected by Texas Legends
Released by the Portland Trail Blazers, Jeremy Sochan was picked first overall by the Texas Legends in the 2026 G-League Draft. The move marks the fourth different organization the 23-year-old forward has been part of in the last year.
A familiar name went first overall in the 2026 G-League Draft. Jeremy Sochan, who was selected 9th overall in the 2022 NBA Draft, was taken first by the Texas Legends, the affiliate of the Dallas Mavericks.
Sochan signed with the Portland Trail Blazers in early August and averaged 3.6 points and 2.4 rebounds in 11 minutes per game during preseason exhibition matches. Even so, the Blazers chose not to use their final roster spot, and the player was released on October 17.
Sochan fell out of the San Antonio Spurs rotation last season and briefly wore a New York Knicks uniform. He stands out for his high energy and his ability to defend positions 3 through 5. His strong rebounding instincts are another asset. The forward needs to improve his half-court offense and his outside shooting, and he aims to re-establish himself in the G-League and earn a permanent return to the NBA.
