Anfernee Simons Could Be Absent Again Thursday
19 seconds agoPortland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (forearm) is listed as questionable on the injury report ahead of Thursday's encounter with the Toronto Raptors. A contusion on his right forearm might sideline Simons for a second consecutive game. With Scoot Henderson (concussion) also on the shelf, Dalano Banton was promoted to the first unit Tuesday night against the Atlanta Hawks. He produced a solid line in the game with 11 points, seven rebounds, five assists, and four blocks. It appears that Banton may have a large role to play again on Thursday against his hometown team.
