Anfernee Simons's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (illness) is regarded as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with Oklahoma City. An illness has already knocked him out for a couple of games, and he might miss another one. Scoot Henderson has rolled with the starters during Simons' absence. He's been inconsistent all year and doesn't look like a good fantasy option at present. Dalano Banton's minutes have also been on the up lately, and he's coming off a 23-point performance against Atlanta. Banton has averaged 13.3 points for the month, but his scoring form faces a big test on Wednesday, as the Thunder own the league's best defensive rating (102.4).

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (illness) won't suit up for Sunday's game versus the Atlanta Hawks. He's under the weather, so he'll miss his second-consecutive contest. Without him and potentially Deandre Ayton (finger), there could be plenty of scoring opportunities up for grabs. Although Shaedon Sharpe, who had 33 points in Wednesday's win over the Timberwolves, should remain a starting fantasy option (and a popular DFS pick), Scoot Henderson and Dalano Banton could surpass their usual production expectations.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (illness) won't play in Wednesday's clash with the Timberwolves. These clubs met on Tuesday night, with Simons lasting only five minutes. As a result, Shaedon Sharpe got more involved, finishing the night with 17 points in 33 minutes of work. Without questions, Sharpe's upside is higher without Simons on the floor. The same can be said for Scoot Henderson and Jerami Grant.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (arm) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Simons fell on his arm during Friday's loss, but it seems like it was a minor issue. Simons appears to be fine and should play his normal workload on Saturday. He put together his worst performance of the season on Friday, but has been solid outside of that. Fantasy managers should go ahead and get him back in their lineups for this one.

According to Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com, head coach Chauncey Billups said Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (ankle) practiced Tuesday and could "potentially" play in Wednesday's exhibition contest against Ratiopharm Ulm. Simons has been dealing with minor ankle soreness. If he can't go on Wednesday, the 25-year-old will have another chance to suit up on Friday for Portland's final preseason game. The guard could significantly impact fantasy this season after coming off a strong 2023-24 campaign, averaging 22.6 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 5.5 assists across just 46 games. His season was limited due to ankle and knee injuries.
