Jerami Grant DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

According toSean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland, Portland Trail Blazers forwardJerami Grant(head) didn't practice on Wednesday. Grant was sidelined on Monday against the Mavs due to a facial contusion. Per Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups, he is not dealing with a concussion. However, it is unknown if the 30-year-old will be able to suit up against the Lakers on Thursday. Deni Avdija and Kris Murray will likely see expanded roles in the team's rotation if Grant can't play.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (face) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Grant will sit out this game after suffering a facial contusion during Saturday's contest. It sounds like a minor issue, so hopefully he'll be back in the lineup after this game. Deni Avdija should get the starting nod with Grant unavailable. Avdija is coming off two straight 20-point outings, so he should be a solid streaming option for Monday's slate. He should have no problem getting at least 30 minutes of action.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (knee) will return from a two-game absence against Dallas on Sunday. The team has upgraded him to available after initially listing Grant as questionable for the game with a left knee sprain, which has bothered him for a bit. The Trail Blazers continue to roll with a thin lineup, so Grant should get plenty of usage in the contest. However, fantasy managers shouldn't get too excited, as Grant has struggled with his shooting early in the campaign. He's only nailed 38.3 percent of his efforts from the field, averaging 16.1 points in 32.3 minutes.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (knee) is doubtful heading into Wednesday's game against the Pacers. The 30-year-old carried a questionable tag prior to Monday's matchup with the Grizzlies because of an illness. While he managed to suit up for that one, he eventually exited because of a sprained left knee. The Blazers are in trouble, with Donovan Clingan (knee) and Robert Williams III (concussion) already ruled out. To make matters worse, Scoot Henderson (back), Kris Murray (sternum), and Deandre Ayton (finger) are questionable. As a result, Deni Avdija could return to the starting lineup and automatically see his fantasy potential increase. Also, Anfernee Simons and Shaedon Sharpe could be in line for an uptick in production.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (knee) won't return to Monday's meeting with the Grizzlies. He was on the injury report heading into this one because of an illness. However, the 30-year-old was cleared to suit up. Unfortunately, he was ruled out with a left knee injury, so he'll finish the night with 11 points and two steals. With that in mind, Grant will likely undergo further testing, and it's possible he appears on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. If he can't get on the floor, Toumani Camara could slide into the starting lineup.
