PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) Joe Cronin has been named the Portland Trail Blazers' general manager after serving in the interim role since December.

Cronin became interim GM after Neil Olshey was fired following an investigation into allegations of a toxic workplace environment.

Cronin has since been reshaping the Blazers' roster, making several trades before the February deadline that put the team under the luxury tax threshold and freed up cap space. In the most significant move, guard CJ McCollum was traded to New Orleans, ending his lengthy run as Damian Lillard's partner in Portland's backcourt.
