Jerami Grant (knee) remains on the injury report with a doubtful tag on Thursday, making it unlikely that he will return to action against the Atlanta Hawks. Grant has not played since March 9, missing 10 games due to inflammation in his right knee.
Deni Avdija's workload has noticeably increased during Grant's absence, as he has averaged 36.8 minutes since his exit from the lineup. Avdija has also been highly productive, averaging 25.3 points, 10.4 rebounds, 5.1 assists, and 1.2 steals over the past 10 games.

Jerami Grant (knee) won't play on Sunday versus the Knicks. He's already missed nine-straight contests. But the Trail Blazers aren't expected to make the Play-In, so it's tough to say if Grant will be back on the floor at some point before the end of the season. With
Anfernee Simons (forearm) questionable and
Scoot Henderson (concussion) out,
Toumani Camara,
Shaedon Sharpe, and
Deni Avdija could be more productive than usual.
Dalano Banton may also see a healthy uptick in work, giving him added value for fantasy managers.

Jerami Grant (knee) is listed as doubtful on the injury report, making it unlikely that he will return to action on Thursday against the Sacramento Kings. He has already missed eight games due to right knee tendinitis.
Shaedon Sharpe has nailed down a spot in the starting unit during Grant's absence and will likely receive additional usage again on Thursday night.
Kris Murray and
Matisse Thybulle can also fill Grant's minutes, but they are far less attractive fantasy options compared to Sharpe, who has posted 18.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 2.9 assists in a starting role this season.

Portland Trail Blazers forward
Jerami Grant (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Grant will now miss his eighth game in a row due to a lingering knee issue. It's unclear if the Blazers plan to bring back Grant at all this season. His absence has given
Shaedon Sharpe a chance to step up and he has been playing excellent basketball lately. Sharpe is worth rostering in most fantasy formats right now while Grant is out.
