Questionable for Tuesday Simons (elbow) is questionable for Tuesday's game versus the Heat.

Impact Simons missed the second leg of Portland's back-to-back set Sunday against the Bulls, and the guard remains day-to-day. If Simons is unable to suit up, Scoot Henderson will likely remain heavily involved -- Henderson put up 25 points, eight assists, seven rebounds, two steals and three triples across 38 minutes Sunday.

Ruled out Sunday Simons (elbow) is out for Sunday's game against the Bulls, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports.

Impact Simons scored 13 points against the Rockets on Saturday, but he won't be available for this matchup, meaning the Blazers won't have one of their most prolific scoring weapons. Scoot Henderson will take his place in the starting lineup, and Simons' next chance to suit up will come against the Heat on Tuesday.

Questionable for Sunday Simons is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bulls with an elbow strain, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports.

Impact This is a big concern for Simons' fantasy managers, as this game is the second leg of a back-to-back set. Plus, the Trail Blazers aren't exactly in a position to push their players at less than 100 percent. If Simons is unable to play, Scoot Henderson could be looking at a lot of usage Sunday evening.

Goes scoreless Thursday Simons racked up zero points (0-9 FG, 0-5 3Pt), one rebound, five assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Thursday's 118-89 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Simons had a woeful showing Thursday and finished scoreless for the first time this season, although it's worth noting this was his eighth game with single-digit points. His shooting woes have been impossible to hide of late, as Simons has made just 33.3 percent of his shots from the floor over his last four appearances.

Poor shooting display Simons chipped in 11 points (3-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound and four assists over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 132-114 loss to the Nets.

Impact Players like Scoot Henderson and Shaedon Sharpe carried the Trail Blazers on offense, but Simons still struggled badly and posted a woeful shooting line after making just 25 percent of his 12 attempts from the field. One bad game isn't going to alter Simons' fantasy upside drastically, however, and he handles enough volume on offense to believe he'll likely bounce back sooner rather than later. The numbers back that up as well. Over his previous nine games, Simons is averaging 23.6 points per game while shooting 47.5 percent from the floor.

Leads Portland in loss Simons racked up 28 points (10-23 FG, 7-14 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and three assists in 33 minutes during Saturday's 119-98 loss to the Heat.

Impact Simons recorded his 19th game with 20-plus points while leading the Trail Blazers in scoring, albeit in a losing effort. The seventh-year pro was efficient from outside in Saturday's loss, and he has knocked three or more triples in 21 of his 35 regular-season appearances. The 25-year-old has been on a tear in January, and over his last six outings, he has averaged 25.7 points, 5.7 assists and 3.2 rebounds while shooting 50.0 percent from the floor in 35.5 minutes per contest.

Nails four triples in loss Simons produced 22 points (9-22 FG, 4-10 3Pt), one rebound, four assists and one steal across 37 minutes during Thursday's 117-111 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Simons logged a team-high 37 minutes and tied with Shaedon Sharpe for the most points with 22 during Thursday's loss. Simons has seen a slight reduction in his offensive output this season, averaging 18.6 points per contest compared to 22.6 in 2023-24. This is mostly due to the 25-year-old guard playing 2.5 minutes per game less, as well as shooting just 35.8 percent from three compared to 38.5 percent last year.

Impact Simons did it all for Portland on the offensive end of the floor Monday, leading all players in scoring, threes made and assists while coming up one dime shy of a double-double. Simons set season-high marks in scoring and threes made while posting his third outing of the campaign with nine or more dimes. Simons has tallied 30 or more points on three occasions this year.

Team-high 23 points in loss Simons registered 23 points (8-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five assists, three rebounds and two steals in 37 minutes during Thursday's 114-106 loss to the Lakers.

Impact Simons posted a team-high mark in scoring, logging his 15th outing with 20-plus points through 30 regular-season appearances. The 25-year-old delivered a solid performance from beyond the arc Thursday, though he has struggled a bit with efficiency from three-point range in the early part of the season, during which he has averaged 17.7 points while shooting only 33.5 percent from deep. Over his last five outings, SImons has averaged 17.6 points, 5.0 assists and 2.8 rebounds across 33.2 minutes per contest.

Scores 25 points Monday Simons ended Monday's 125-103 loss to the 76ers with 25 points (9-18 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and four assists in 30 minutes.

Impact The Blazers looked completely overmatched in this loss Monday, but Simons delivered a solid fantasy output despite the team's struggles. This was the fifth time he reached the 20-point mark over his last eight games, and while Portland has gone 3-5 over that stretch, Simons has managed to average 20.1 points, 6.0 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game. Simons has been one of the few silver linings for the Blazers from a fantasy perspective this season.

Rough outing in win Simons totaled eight points (3-12 FG, 2-8 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and two steals in 30 minutes during Thursday's 122-120 victory over the Jazz.

Impact For the seventh time this season, Simons failed to hit double digits in the scoring column. Although Simons has scored 20 or more points 12 times this season and 25 or more seven times, the talented 25-year-old guard has been anything but consistent with his scoring, with no telling what he'll produce from night to night.

Stuffs stat sheet Saturday Simons closed with 18 points (7-22 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, six assists and five steals in 33 minutes during Saturday's 114-94 loss to the Spurs.

Impact Simons didn't have his best shooting performance, but he still salvaged his fantasy line by recording a season-high mark in steals. Simons also snapped a streak of three games with at least 20 points, but he's reached the 18-point mark five times in eight December contests, so he's been finding ways to produce. Simons is averaging nearly 18 points per game this season, and he's been one of the Blazers' most consistent scoring weapons despite the team's overall struggles.
