After a successful 4-year college career at Georgia and Dayton, Camara entered the 2023 draft and was selected 52nd overall by the Suns. After playing Summer League for the Suns, he was included in the Deandre Ayton trade and ended up in Portland, where he has looked very promising thus far, starting the majority of games in '23-'24. He started all 78 games he played in '24-'25, and even made an All-Defense team. At 6'7" with a 7'0" wingspan, Camara has an NBA body. He isn't super explosive, but has functional athleticism. He has already shown that he can be a very switchable, multi-positional defender. The Trailblazers have had Camara guard the best opposing player often, and he has held up well in those situations. He also posts good steal and block rates. He also has good instincts as an off-ball defender, and draws a lot of charges. Offensively, Camara has not been super efficient, posting just a 56% true shooting. He has decent feel but needs to improve in his shooting and overall ball skills. Overall his scoring needs improvement at each level, as his 53% 2-point shooting and 36% 3-point shooting were both below average. He does rebound well on the offensive end.  Camara is on the older side for a rookie, as he was drafted as a 23-year old. However, he has been a really nice surprise for the Blazers thus far, and he certainly won't be waived on this contract. The Blazers could also extend him this offseason.
