Portland Trail Blazers

Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) does not appear on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This is good news after Thybulle was forced to exit during the fourth quarter of Wednesday's game. The team was calling the issue a left ankle sprain, but it doesn't appear to be something that is going to hold him out of action. Thybulle should be good to go, but hasn't done enough to warrant rostering in most fantasy formats right now.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle sprained his left ankle against Brooklyn on Wednesday and had to exit the game in the fourth quarter. The defensive specialist ended the night with three points and three assists in 21 minutes off the bench. Portland has struggled with injuries all season long, and Thybulle is the latest player to go down. Toumani Camara should benefit the most from Thybulle's potential absence Friday versus Indiana.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (illness) is available ahead of Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. This is good news after Simons was a late addition to the injury report due to an illness. Luckily, it was a minor issue and Simons should resume his normal role in the rotation. Simons has played a big part of this team lately and is likely to continue being the primary scoring option. That being said, fantasy managers should make sure to get Simons in their lineups for Wednesday's game.

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (knee) is currently listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Ayton was able to practice on Tuesday without any issues. That being said, Ayton appears to be in line to make his first appearance since December 23. His return will impact the playing time of Ibou Badji (hip), Jabari Walker, and Duop Reath. There's a good chance that Ayton is on a minutes limit during his first game back, so Reath might still be able to carve out some streaming appeal.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (illness) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Both Grant and Matisse Thybulle (illness) sat out of Sunday's contest. Now, both players have been removed from the injury report and appear ready to go. The return of Grant should shift Jabari Walker back to the bench, so he won't have as much streaming appeal. Thybulle has been a reserve most of the season, so he figures to return to that role.
