Wed, Apr 1, 2026, 1:31 PM
NBA Injury Report
Vit Krej?Ã will not play in Thursday's game against the Pelicans.
Analysis: Krej?Ã's absence will extend to 10 straight games after being ruled out for Thursday's contest. The Trail Blazers are still battling for Play-In Tournament seeding without their depth wing, and have won four of their past five games. |

Jrue Holiday Jrue Holiday scores game-high 30 points in win
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 7:35 PM
Jrue Holiday led the Trail Blazers with 30 points (10-of-21 FGs), six rebounds, two assists, two steals and seven three-pointers in a 114-104 win over the Clippers on Tuesday.
Analysis: This was an offensive outburst for Holiday, which led to his third 30-point game of the season. This performance was only surpassed by his outing against the Grizzlies on March 4, where he contributed 35 points and eight three-pointers. Holiday has been a strong starter for the Blazers this season, though performances like this haven't come often. He'll look to carry some of this production into Thursday's matchup with the Pelicans, which will be their final game of the week. |

Deni Avdija Deni Avdija finishes with 28/11/8 line vs. LAC
Tue, Mar 31, 2026, 7:32 PM
Deni Avdija recorded a double-double on Tuesday with 28 points (8-of-15 FGs, 11-of-12 FTs), 11 rebounds, eight assists and one three-pointer against the Clippers.
Analysis: Rough free throw shooting has limited Avdija's value as of late, but he was able to have a productive night from there in this game while also recording his third double-double of the month. Avdija has enjoyed a breakout season, though he has certainly cooled off over the past two months. The back injury that has forced him to miss time is certainly a reason, and Portland will hope to have him at 100 percent for the postseason. |

Jerami Grant Jerami Grant (calf) remains out vs. Clippers
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 2:17 PM
Portland Trail Blazers
Jerami Grant (calf) is out for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.
Analysis: The Trail Blazers still have not revealed a return timeline for Grant, but he will miss a second consecutive game on Tuesday. Scoot Henderson moved into the starting lineup for Sunday's win over the Wizards and played well, finishing with 21 points and seven assists. Fantasy managers and the Trail Blazers will hope for similar output on Tuesday. |

Vit Krejci VÃt Krej?Ã (calf) remains out vs. Clippers
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 2:11 PM
NBA Injury Report
VÃt Krej?Ã (calf) is out for Tuesday's game against the Clippers.
Analysis: Krej?Ã will miss a ninth consecutive game on Tuesday. His absence does not affect fantasy basketball, but it does cut into the Trail Blazers' wing depth. |

Toumani Camara Toumani Camara has 23 points, seven boards in win
Sun, Mar 29, 2026, 2:48 PM
Toumani Camara had 23 points (8-of-14 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, one assist, three steals and four three-pointers in Sunday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: Camara led the Trail Blazers in scoring in the win over the Wizards on Sunday. The 25-year-old small forward only played 28 minutes with the Trail Blazers leading by so much. He was coming off a career-high 35 point game earlier in the week. Camara would be an interesting waiver wire addition, but the Trail Blazers play just twice in Week 23. |

Scoot Henderson Henderson has 21 points, seven assists in win
Sun, Mar 29, 2026, 2:43 PM
Scoot Henderson had 21 points (6-of-11 FGs, 8-of-9 FTs), three rebounds, seven assists and one three-pointer in Sunday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: Henderson moved into the starting lineup Sunday with Jerami Grant (calf) out and was excellent. The 22-year-old point guard produced big numbers in just 25 minutes. It was a nice game, but his fantasy ceiling is still fairly low depending on Grant's health. |

Deni Avdija Deni Avdija has 20/7/5 line in win over Wizards
Sun, Mar 29, 2026, 2:35 PM
Deni Avdija had 20 points (8-of-16 FGs, 3-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, five assists, two steals and one three-pointer in the Trail Blazers' 123-88 victory over the Wizards on Sunday.
Analysis: Avdija returned from a back injury earlier this month and his play has picked up as of late. The 25-year-old small forward has had at least 17 points in his last 12 consecutive games, a stretch where his team is 8-4. Turnovers continue to be the lone issue for Avdija as he's had at least four turnovers in each of his last three games. The Trail Blazers only have two games upcoming in Week 23, starting with a matchup against the Clippers on Tuesday. |

Robert Williams Robert Williams III (back) available vs. WAS
Sun, Mar 29, 2026, 11:30 AM
Portland Trail Blazers
Robert Williams III (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Williams is good to go after tweaking something in his lower back during Friday's loss to the Mavericks. He'll take on his usual backup center role, which means Yang Hansen may only see action if the game gets out of hand. |

Scoot Henderson POR starts Scoot, Holiday, Avdija, Camara, Clingan
Sun, Mar 29, 2026, 10:36 AM
NBA Injury Report
Scoot Henderson, Jrue Holiday, Deni Avdija, Toumani Camara and Donovan Clingan will start Sunday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: The Trail Blazers won't have Jerami Grant (calf) for Sunday's game, which opens a spot in the starting lineup. Henderson will fill the void, which raises his fantasy ceiling. Avdija may lose out on a few playmaking opportunities, but not to the point where it would negatively affect his fantasy value. |

Robert Williams Robert Williams III (back) questionable vs. WAS
Sat, Mar 28, 2026, 3:44 PM
NBA Injury Report
Robert Williams III (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Williams appeared to tweak something in his lower back during the second quarter of Friday's loss to the Mavericks, and he did not play after halftime. If he can't play on Sunday, the Trail Blazers may call on Yang Hansen to fill out the rotation since Jerami Grant (calf) has already been ruled out. |

Jerami Grant Jerami Grant, VÃt Krej?Ã ruled out vs. Washington
Sat, Mar 28, 2026, 3:40 PM
NBA Injury Report
Jerami Grant (calf) and VÃt Krej?Ã (calf) are out for Sunday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: While Krej?Ã remaining out with a left calf contusion does not affect fantasy basketball, Grant's calf strain does. His absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup, with Sidy Cissoko and Kris Murray being potential replacements. Also, no Grant means that the Trail Blazers will need more consistent production from Scoot Henderson off the bench. |

Jerami Grant Jerami Grant (calf) exits during fourth quarter
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 7:01 PM
Sean Highkin
Jerami Grant (calf) finished Friday's loss to the Mavericks with 19 points (4-of-8 FGs, 9-of-12 FTs), four rebounds, one steal, two blocks and two three-pointers.
Analysis: Grant injured his right calf during the second half of Friday's defeat, and there is some concern that he'll miss time. Following the game, acting head coach Thiago Splitter said Grant felt a pop in his calf. He'll be evaluated further on Saturday, and Sunday's game against the Wizards could be off the board for Grant, at a minimum. If he misses time, Scoot Henderson (9/2/3/3 with one three-pointer) would have added importance to the Trail Blazers, even if he continues to come off the bench. |

Deni Avdija Deni Avdija records 20/9/6/1/2 line vs. Dallas
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 6:59 PM
Deni Avdija accounted for 20 points (8-of-15 FGs, 4-of-9 FTs), nine rebounds, six assists, one steal and two blocks in Friday's loss to the Mavericks.
Analysis: Avdjia did everything but make a three-pointer on Friday, helping compensate for another high-turnover night. The Trail Blazers' playmaker was responsible for five turnovers against the Mavericks, and he's been responsible for at least three in each of his last ten appearances. Given how much Avdija has the ball in his hands, the turnovers are somewhat understandable. And the task would become more difficult if Jerami Grant (calf) has to miss time. |

Jrue Holiday Jrue Holiday leads Trail Blazers with 23 points
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 6:59 PM
Jrue Holiday recorded 23 points (8-of-19 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, three assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Friday's loss to the Mavericks.
Analysis: Holiday finished Friday's defeat with his first 20-point game in two weeks, with his scoring output having decreased during the second half of March. After scoring 20 or more in five of Portland's first six games of the month, the veteran guard was limited to 15 or fewer in seven straight before Friday. With Jerami Grant leaving Friday's game with a calf injury, the Trail Blazers may need more offensive production from Holiday going forward, which could raise his ceiling. But only if he can take advantage. |

Robert Williams Robert Williams III (back) will not return vs. DAL
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 5:37 PM
Portland Trail Blazers
Robert Williams III (back) will not return to Friday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Williams looked uncomfortable after landing on the court after completing an alley-oop dunk late in the second quarter. The Time Lord tweaked something in his back and is now done for the night. The Trail Blazers will likely go small when starting center Donovan Clingan is not on the floor. |
|
Robert Williams Robert Williams (knee) available vs. Dallas
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 2:48 PM
NBA Injury Report
Robert Williams (knee) is available to play against the Mavericks on Friday.
Analysis: Williams will be good to go after initially being listed as questionable. He'll continue to make an impact in limited minutes, which will make him a difficult player to be worth rostering. |
|
Vit Krejci VÃt Krej?Ã (calf) downgraded to out vs. Dallas
Fri, Mar 27, 2026, 2:24 PM
NBA Injury Report
VÃt Krej?Ã (calf) is out for Friday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Krej?Ã's continued absence does not affect fantasy basketball, given the decrease in playing time he experienced before his calf injury. |
|
Robert Williams Robert Williams (knee) questionable vs. Dallas
Thu, Mar 26, 2026, 2:24 PM
NBA Injury Report
Robert Williams (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Friday's game is not part of a back-to-back, but Williams is still on the report for injury management reasons. If he's unable to play against the Mavericks, the Trail Blazers will likely play starting center Donovan Clingan for a few more minutes while going small when he isn't in the game. |
|
Vit Krejci VÃt Krej?Ã (calf) doubtful vs. Dallas
Thu, Mar 26, 2026, 2:20 PM
NBA Injury Report
VÃt Krej?Ã (calf) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Krej?Ã has missed Portland's last six games. His continued absence does not affect fantasy basketball, as his minutes were decreasing before the calf injury. |
