Struggles in victory Grant registered eight points (3-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 106-98 win over Minnesota.

Impact Grant failed to score double-digit points for the first time since Oct. 30 during Wednesday's win. The 30-year-old forward has struggled with his efficiency this season, shooting just 38.5 percent from the field. After shooting 40.2 percent from three last season, Grant is converting just 34.4 percent of his 6.9 three-point attempts per contest in 2024-25.

Shines in playmaking role Grant racked up 21 points (5-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 9-10 FT), two rebounds and eight assists across 39 minutes during Tuesday's 122-108 victory over the Timberwolves.

Impact Grant is known for being a prolific scorer and an energetic rebounder, but the eight dimes were certainly surprising -- he finished just one dime away from tying his career-best mark in that category. Grant has had noticeable shooting woes in the first weeks of the season and has struggled with efficiency, but he should continue to have green light to shoot at will, especially if Anfernee Simons (chest) is forced to miss time.

Puts up 20 points in blowout loss Grant notched 20 points (7-15 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 28 minutes during Sunday's 134-89 loss to Memphis.

Impact The Trail Blazers looked drastically overmatched in this blowout loss to the Grizzlies, and Grant was one of the few Portland players who delivered a relatively decent performance. His 20 points led the team, and this was the third time he reached the 20-point mark in his six outings in November.

Swats three shots Friday Grant recorded 12 points (4-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound and three blocks in 27 minutes during Friday's 127-102 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Grant had a rough showing Friday, as he had to battle with Julius Randle and Rudy Gobert in the frontcourt, and that limited his capacity to make an impact in the scoring column -- the area in which he thrives the most. Grant has failed to reach the 20-point mark in five of his last seven outings, averaging 14.4 points and shooting just 35.8 percent from the field in that span.

Ties game-high 21 points in loss Grant racked up 21 points (6-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-11 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 37 minutes during Thursday's 118-105 loss to the Spurs.

Impact The 30-year-old tied Deandre Ayton with a game-high 21 points, despite the double-digit loss. Grant shot an efficient 60 percent from the field, though efficiency has been an issue for him thus far as he is shooting 39.2 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from beyond the arc. Through nine regular-season outings, the forward has averaged 18.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.3 blocks and 0.9 steals across 33.9 minutes per game.

Fills stat sheet Saturday Grant accumulated 20 points (8-23 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 39 minutes during Saturday's 103-97 loss to the Suns.

Impact Grant had a rough showing from the field and was particularly inaccurate from beyond the arc, but he still found a way to reach the 20-point mark -- something he's achieved in just three of his seven appearances. Portland's offensive woes certainly conspire against what he can do on a game-to-game basis, but Grant's role as one of Portland's top offensive weapons is not under any dispute. He's shooting just 38.1 percent from the field, so there's still margin for improvement for him.

Scores team-high 17 in loss Grant closed Friday's 137-114 loss to the Thunder with 17 points (5-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one block over 28 minutes.

Impact The veteran forward had managed just 15 points combined over the prior two games, but Grant shook off the mini-slump to lead the Blazers in scoring on the night. While his offense has been erratic to begin the season, he's finding other ways to contribute. Grant's 1.7 blocks a game would be a personal best, and he's also upped his volume from beyond the arc, averaging a career-high 3.0 threes on 8.2 attempts (36.7 percent).

Another poor outing Grant ended with eight points (3-14 FG, 2-7 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 106-105 victory over the Clippers.

Impact After a strong start to the season, Grant has dropped back-to-back duds. The 30-year-old forward has shot 6-26 from the field across those two outs. However, with Grant remaining in the starting lineup and typically playing over 30 minutes a night, he should continue to receive enough opportunities to put up solid statistical production.

Shooting woes in loss Grant contributed seven points (3-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt), eight rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 29 minutes during Monday's 111-98 loss to the Kings.

Impact Grant produced his worst game of the season, during which he shot only 25 percent from the field. The 20-year-old remains the club's top scorer through four regular-season outings, and he has notched 28-plus points in two games thus far. Grant is averaging 21.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.3 blocks and 2.0 assists across 32.8 minutes per game.

Leading scorer Sunday Grant registered 28 points (9-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 8-12 FT), five rebounds, two assists, four blocks and two steals across 29 minutes during Sunday's 125-103 win over New Orleans.

Impact Grant led both teams in scoring Sunday and got to the line for a game-high 12 free-throw attempts, though he managed to connect on only eight of them. He also contributed on the defensive end of the floor and was responsible for four of the Trail Blazers' eight blocks in the win. Early in the 2024-25 regular season, Grant is averaging 26.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 2.7 blocks and 1.3 steals across 34.0 minutes per game.

Career-best night from beyond arc Grant racked up 34 points (11-23 FG, 8-17 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal over 40 minutes during Friday's 105-103 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact The 30-year-old forward drained a career-high eight threes but didn't get quite enough help from his teammates to pull off the upset. Grant has averaged better than 20 points a game in each of his first two seasons with Portland, but he could find another level as a scorer in 2024-25 with Toumani Camara and Deni Avdija added to the starting five for their defensive chops and not necessarily their offense.

Pops for 18 against Utah Grant scored 18 points (7-11 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT) while adding seven assists, three rebounds, three steals and three assists in 23 minutes during Friday's 124-86 preseason win over...

Impact Utah didn't play any of its starters more than 19 minutes, so a lot of Grant's production came against bench players, but it was still an impressive finish to the preseason for the veteran forward. Grant will have a key role on a rebuilding Blazers squad, and usage alone should allow him to post his third straight season averaging at least 20 points and two three-pointers a game.
