Robert Williams

POR Center #35

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Robert Williams (rest) is not on the injury report for Monday’s game against Memphis.

Williams did not play in Saturday’s win over Houston, Portland’s second game in as many nights. He’s back for Monday night and will likely start, as Donovan Clingan (knee) is out, and Deandre Ayton (finger) is doubtful. The Time Lord should be rostered as long as he’s healthy.
Kris Murray

POR Small Forward #24

Kris Murray (bruised sternum) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Grizzlies.

If everyone is healthy, Murray’s availability will not significantly impact fantasy basketball, as he slots in behind Jerami Grant in the rotation. However, Grant is also questionable for Monday due to illness. If he cannot play, Murray (if cleared) would be in line for additional playing time, likely as a spot starter.
Scoot Henderson

POR Point Guard #00

Scoot Henderson (back strain) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Henderson has missed Portland’s last two games, but the impact of his absence was minimal due to Anfernee Simons being available. If Henderson cannot play in Memphis, Dalano Banton will continue to play extended minutes off the bench.
Jerami Grant

POR Power Forward #9

Jerami Grant (illness) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Grant lands on the injury report after playing 33 effective minutes in Saturday’s win over Houston. Under normal circumstances, Kris Murray would be the player of interest (but not a must-add) if Grant cannot play. However, Murray is also questionable for Monday’s game, and both sitting would free up minutes for Rayan Rupert. He is not worth adding in most leagues.
Deandre Ayton

POR Center #2

Deandre Ayton (right index finger deep contusion) is doubtful for Monday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Ayton has not played since November 10, and that appears unlikely to change on Monday. Donovan Clingan (knee) is also out, so Robert Williams should be in the starting lineup, with Duop Reath in the backup center role.
Donovan Clingan

POR Center #23

Donovan Clingan (left knee sprain) is out for Monday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Clingan injured his knee during the third quarter of Saturday’s win over Houston. While he did return to action with a sleeve on his left leg, the rookie will miss at least one game. With Deandre Ayton (finger) doubtful to play, Robert Williams should be the starting center, with Duop Reath as his backup. Ensure the Time Lord isn’t sitting on your league’s waiver wire.
Donovan Clingan

POR Center #23

Donovan Clingan (left knee) went scoreless in Saturday’s win over the Rockets but contributed 19 rebounds, one assist, one steal, and three blocks in 26 minutes.

Clingan may not have scored in Saturday’s victory, missing all four shot attempts, but that didn’t keep him from providing value. The rookie center grabbed a season-high 19 rebounds and blocked three shots, becoming the first rookie to have a game with no points and at least 15 rebounds. Clingan did injure his left knee during the third quarter but was able to return. Clingan’s had at least one rejection in 17 consecutive games to begin his NBA career, averaging 2.2 per game. His short-term fantasy value will be influenced by the availability of Deandre Ayton and Robert Williams, but Clingan will eventually be the defensive anchor.
Anfernee Simons

POR Shooting Guard #1

Anfernee Simons finished Saturday’s win over the Rockets with a team-high 25 points (10-of-20 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), four rebounds, three assists, and four 3-pointers in 37 minutes.

Simons’ sprained right hand didn’t appear to be an issue on Saturday, as he scored a team-high 25 points while shooting 50% from the field. He’s shooting just 39.5% from the field over the last two weeks, which has decreased Simons’ fantasy value. Portland continues its road trip in Memphis on Monday, the first of four games they’ll play in Week 6.
Shaedon Sharpe

POR Shooting Guard #17

Shaedon Sharpe amassed 24 points (7-of-18 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), three rebounds, one assist, two steals, and four 3-pointers in 36 minutes in Saturday’s win over the Rockets.

Sharpe has scored 21 points or more in four of his last five games, with Friday’s blowout loss to the Rockets being the exception. Like Jerami Grant, limited production in assists, rebounds, and the defensive categories negatively impact Sharpe’s fantasy ceiling. But he’s in a position within the Blazers rotation where he will log heavy minutes due to the team’s lack of shooting guards.
Jerami Grant

POR Power Forward #9

Jerami Grant played 33 minutes in Saturday’s win over Houston, scoring 22 points (6-of-12 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs) with three rebounds, two assists, one block, and four 3-pointers.

After playing poorly in Friday’s blowout loss to the Rockets, Grant bounced back in the rematch on Saturday. While his fantasy ceiling is limited due to lackluster production outside of points and 3-pointers, Grant has provided 10th-round value in 9-cat formats, which was the preseason expectation of many. Portland plays four games in Week 6, beginning with Memphis on Monday.
