Ruled out Monday Elleby (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Oklahoma City, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

Not on injury report Elleby (hamstring) isn't on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against Oklahoma City, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

Impact Elleby missed the last two games due to a left hamstring injury but should be back in action for the second half of a back-to-back set. Across his last five appearances, he's averaged 5.6 points and 2.4 rebounds in 17.6 minutes per game.

Out Friday Elleby (leg) will not play in Friday's game versus the Rockets, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

Impact No surprise here, as Elleby was deemed doutful heading into the game. In his absence, the likes of Tony Snell and Ben McLemore could be in line to see slightly increased playing time.

Unlikely to play Friday Elleby is doubtful for Friday's game against the Rockets due to a left leg injury, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

Impact Elleby played 20 minutes in Wednesday's loss to Dallas, but he'll likely be unavailable against the Rockets. The 21-year-old has had an inconsistent role for the Trail Blazers recently, but Tony Snell and Ben McLemore could see an uptick in playing time Friday.

Moves out of rotation Elleby (coach's decision) went unused off the bench in Tuesday's 109-107 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact The return of Norman Powell (personal) from an eight-game absence left no room in the rotation for Elleby, who had logged double-digit minutes off the bench in each of his last seven appearances. Since the Trail Blazers are back to full strength on the wing, for the time being, Elleby doesn't look like he'll play most nights, erasing most of the limited value he held in the deepest of leagues.

Good to go Elleby (ankle) is listed as available for Wednesday's game against the Heat.

Impact The second-year wing has been nursing a sprained right ankle, but he'll be an option for coach Chauncey Billups off the bench Wednesday night. Elleby will have a chance to remain in the rotation for the time being, but he may fall out of the mix when Larry Nance (knee) and Norman Powell (personal) are back in action.

Upgraded to probable Elleby (ankle) is now listed as probable for Wednesday's contest against the Heat, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

Impact Elleby missed Monday's contest due to a left ankle sprain, but it appears he will be able to return after just a one-game absence. Over his last five appearances, he's averaging 6.2 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.4 steals in 18.4 minutes, but when he is eventually available, he's expected to see diminished playing time now that CJ McCollum is back in the mix.

JANUARY 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Wednesday Elleby (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Heat, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

Impact Elleby missed Monday's contest due to a left ankle sprain and could be in danger of missing a second straight game. When he eventually does return, he's likely in line for decreased playing time since CJ McCollum is back in action.

Won't play Monday Elleby (ankle) is out Monday against Orlando, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

Impact Elleby was doubtful ahead of Monday's contest due to a right ankle sprain, and he'll officially be forced to miss at least one game. Once he's back in action, he could see decreased playing time since CJ McCollum has been cleared to return.

JANUARY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to sit with sprained ankle Elleby is dealing with a sprained right ankle and is listed as doubtful for Monday's game in Orlando, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

Impact CJ McCollum is expected to make his return to the lineup following an extended absence due to a collapsed lung and Norman Powell (COVID-19 protocols) has been upgraded to questionable, so if both players are available, the expected absence of Elleby shouldn't hinder Portland too much from a depth perspective. The second-year wing out of Washington State has played double-digit minutes in five straight contests, averaging 6.2 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.8 treys over that span.

JANUARY 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Unimpressive off bench Elleby finished with eight points (2-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and three steals in 27 minutes during Thursday's 140-108 loss to Denver.

Impact Elleby was a minus-24 in the box score during his time on the floor, unable to convert around the rim throughout Thursday's blowout loss. He did supply a healthy seven assists, but the garbage-time oriented nature of this game adds an asterisk. A second year Washington St. product, Elleby is far removed from the fantasy radar at the moment.
