Jerami Grant Out Again
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) won't play on Wednesday against the Clippers. He was listed as doubtful since Tuesday night, so his layoff will extend to five games. It's anyone's guess when he'll be back, let alone return for Portland's rematch with Los Angeles on Friday night. Undoubtedly, Grant's absence hurts the offense, […]
NBA DFS: Top Daily Fantasy Expert Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel (3/20/24)
We have our typically robust mid-week slate Wednesday night on tap, with eight games on the schedule.

Spreads aren't as appealing -- there's only one contest with less than a nine-point line as […]

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) looks set to remain on the sidelines Wednesday versus the Clippers, with the team continuing to list him as doubtful on the injury report.

Matisse Thybulle Questionable Against Bulls
Portland Trail Blazers guard Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is listed as questionable against the Chicago Bulls on Monday.

Two members of the backcourt have already been ruled out and […]
Jerami Grant Expected To Miss Fourth Straight Game
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) has received a doubtful status on the injury report for Monday night.

Malcolm Brogdon Remains Sidelined Monday
Portland Trail Blazers guard Malcolm Brogdon (elbow) has been ruled out for the Monday night game against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran point guard has been making progress and ramping up to more work at practice each day, but he still doesn't have a timetable to return. At this rate, the team won't be rushing […]

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's meeting with New Orleans.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) will be available for Saturday's clash against the Pelicans. The team has upgraded him from a questionable status.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) won't make his return to action Saturday versus New Orleans. The team has downgraded him from doubtful to out, meaning the 30-year-old will be out for the fifth time in six games.

Jabari Walker Upgraded On Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) was upgraded to questionable heading into Saturday's matchup with the Pelicans. The 2022 No. 57 overall pick has been a critical component of Chauncey Billups' rotation this season, averaging 8.5 and 6.6 rebounds in 22 minutes per contest. He's missed the last five games because of a hip […]

Jerami Grant Unlikely To Play Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) is considered as doubtful ahead of Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Anfernee Simons Considered Probable For Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (knee) is listed as probable ahead of Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He'll look to make his return to the court after sitting out of Thursday's game due to a knee issue. Scoot Henderson figures to head back to the second unit if Simons is back on […]
Matisse Thybulle Questionable For Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The Blazers are seemingly banged up everywhere ahead of this matchup. Thybulle hasn't been a great scoring option for them, but he has been a reliable defensive player.
