Matisse Thybulle's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (knee) is expected to miss an extended period of time. Thybulle has been dealing with inflammation in his knee throughout the preseason. He has decided to undergo a procedure that will sideline him for 3-4 weeks. His absence won't make a huge impact considering the Blazers do have depth at the forward spot. The loss of Thybulle should mean more minutes for Kris Murray, Toumani Camara, and Dalano Banton. However, it's not enough playing time to push any of these players into reliable fantasy player territory. The hope is that Thybulle will be back at some point in November or early December.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) will be sidelined for Wednesday's contest against the Hornets. He's seen a total of 12 minutes of action across the last nine games as Thybulle continues to battle a right ankle injury. This will be the second consecutive game he misses. Kris Murray benefits from Thybulle's absence, but he's a very risky fantasy option due to his inconsistency. On paper, the matchup against Charlotte is a very favorable one for Murray and the Trail Blazers, as only Utah has a poorer defensive rating than the Hornets.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. Thybulle missed five games due to an ankle injury before returning to action on Friday. Sadly, Thybulle only lasted seven minutes before exiting the game due to a right ankle issue. It appears Thybulle came back too early, so the Blazers are going to let him get fully healthy. Rayan Rupert and Dalano Banton should see more playing time with Thybulle sidelined on Monday.
