Portland Trail Blazers guard
Eric Bledsoe (Achilles) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He has yet to suit up for Portland after being traded there during the deadline. It sounds like the veteran guard will miss at least one more game.
Anfernee Simons and
Josh Hart should play heavy minutes on Monday. Simons should be an excellent DFS option while the Blazers are shorthanded. It's uncertain if Bledsoe will have much of a role in the rotation once he is cleared to play.

Portland Trail Blazers guard
Eric Bledsoe (Achilles) will be out once again for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Bledsoe, who was acquired in a trade with the Los Angeles Clippers last Friday, has yet to make his debut with the Blazers. He is dealing with left Achilles tendinitis. It's unclear at this point whether or not the 32-year-old veteran will remain with the Blazers or get traded again prior to Thursday's trade deadline. If he remains in Portland and gets healthy, he could find himself playing a big role on a team that's greatly lacking in playmakers.
Anfernee Simons should lead the backcourt for the Blazers on Wednesday with help from
CJ Elleby,
Ben McLemore and

Veteran guard
Eric Bledsoe and former lottery selection
Justise Winslow highlight the return package that the Portland Trail Blazers have acquired in the deal that sends
Norman Powell and
Robert Covington to the Clippers. Bledsoe had seen his role diminish in his first season back with LA, averaging just 9.9 points across 25.2 minutes on a nightly basis, marks set to be his lowest since his most recent year with the Clippers in 2012-13. Winslow has struggled to crack the rotation, as he is on pace for career lows with 4.2 points and 12.9 minutes per contest. Both should see their respective roles expand with the Blazers, as
Damian Lillard (abdominal) remains on the shelf.

Los Angeles Clippers point guard
Eric Bledsoe produced an 18-point, 10-assist double-double against the Nuggets on Sunday and added five steals and two blocks to his line. He pulled down a pair of rebounds as well, shooting 8-for-17 from the field with three turnovers in 37 minutes. With
Reggie Jackson (health and safety protocols) and
Paul George (elbow) out of commission, Bledsoe is the head honcho offensively for the Clippers, and he's produced strong performances in back-to-back games. He'll be heading out next against Brooklyn, which has been a golden matchup for point guards this season.
