Donovan Clingan (ankle) is poised to miss at least one week of action. The rookie big man hurt his ankle in Tuesday's contest against Brooklyn, and the team has announced that Clingan will be re-evaluated in one week. He was diagnosed with a mild left-ankle sprain. Clingan joins
Robert Williams III (illness) on the sidelines, so Portland's starting center
Deandre Ayton may be very busy over the next few games.
Duop Reath is an additional option for the center position on the bench, but he has featured very sparingly in 2024-25.

Donovan Clingan (knee) is available ahead of Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The rookie big man has missed the last seven games due to a right knee injury. As a result, Clingan will have a minutes limit during Friday's game. He wasn't doing great before going down, but Clingan did have a 19-rebound game in his most recent contest. Clingan won't be a strong streaming option while under a minutes limit. However, he's someone worth monitoring if the Blazers do decide to give him more run later in the season.

Donovan Clingan (knee) will miss a third straight game on Friday while he suffers from a sprained knee. With
Robert Williams III (concussion protocol) listed as doubtful, the Trail Blazers will likely be very thin in the frontcourt.
Deandre Ayton will get heavy minutes in the starting five while
Duop Reath could see some minutes in this one. If they decide to go with a small-ball lineup,
Toumani Camara or
Jabari Walker may play some center too.

Donovan Clingan (knee) is expected to be out for at least a couple of weeks. The rookie big man has suffered an MCL sprain and will be re-evaluated in two weeks. Clingan, who averages 5.8 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 2.2 blocks for the campaign, will miss a second consecutive contest on Wednesday versus Indiana. With
Deandre Ayton (finger) questionable and
Robert Williams III (concussion) also out,
Duop Reath should become a popular man among fantasy managers again. A season ago, Reath averaged 13.9 points and 5.8 rebounds in 27.4 minutes as a starter.
