Deandre Ayton Doubtful To Play Against Rockets
9 months agoPortland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (hand) is considered doubtful against the Houston Rockets on Friday while he deals with a right hand sprain. This will be the big man's fifth consecutive missed game and his 22nd overall. Ayton has been a very good rebounder this season, but his health and struggles with his new team have been part of the reason that he's registering one of his worst statistical seasons. Despite that, he should still be a starter on fantasy rosters whenever he does play, but since he's doubtful for this contest, Duop Reath should remain in the starting five. Moses Brown may also get some minutes, but his spot in the rotation isn't consistent enough to be a streamer.
