"Opting out doesn't mean I'm going to leave," Turkoglu told AP before last week's NBA draft. "I'm looking for the best opportunity for myself and my family."
Turkoglu is a nine-year NBA veteran. He played for Sacramento and San Antonio before signing with Orlando as a free agent in 2004.
The Blazers won 54 games last season and advanced to the playoffs, but fell to the Houston Rockets in six games.
The Blazers, the second-youngest team in the NBA last season anchored by All-Star Brandon Roy and LaMarcus Aldridge, are said to be looking to add experience in free agency.
CORRECTION
A young wrestler in a photo on D6 in Wednesday's print edition was misidentified as Grant LaMont. The wrestler pictured on D6 was 11-year-old Taylor LaMont, younger brother of Grant. Grant finished first in his weight class in Tuesday's Greco-Roman competition while Taylor finished fifth in his weight class.
