Pursuant to NBA procedures with regard to career-ending injuries, the Portland Trail Blazers have requested waivers on forward Darius Miles, General Manager Kevin Pritchard announced today.

Miles showed flashes of big talent but never played consistently well and always seemed disinterested in getting better at basketball.
