Malcolm Brogdon's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

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 him back to play in games that won't matter at the end of the day. While he remains on the sidelines, Dalano Banton and Scoot Henderson should keep seeing added opportunities in the backcourt alongside Anfernee Simons. Banton may have the best value as a streaming option since he joined the starting five instead of Henderson.

Brogdon is making progress in his recovery from a right elbow injury but remains without a return date. Anfernee Simons and Scoot Henderson will continue to rock as Portland's starting backcourt, with Dalano Banton filling a big role off the bench. Wednesday's matchup will be a good one for the Portland players, as it's a pace-up spot for the team and a meeting with a poor defense. Only Washington (123.7) gives up more points per game than Atlanta (121.5).

Portland Trail Blazers guard Malcolm Brogdon (elbow) has been ruled out for a 15th consecutive game due to elbow tendinitis. Head coach Chauncey Billups said that Brogdon was progressing a bit, but there was still discomfort and pain in his elbow. There's no need to rush him back to the court since the Blazers are only a couple of games away from getting eliminated from playoff contention.

Henderson and Banton could be streaming options in deeper leagues since Simons is already rostered in most leagues.
