Questionable Friday Little (knee) is questionable for Friday's game at Boston, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.
Impact Little played only 12 minutes due to the injury Wednesday against the Heat and was diagnosed with right knee acute patellar tendinopathy, with X-rays coming back negative. The 21-year-old is in line for anther start if available Friday since Norman Powell (personal) remains unavailable.

Impact The Trail Blazers still held Little out for the entire second half of the contest with an injury the team is labeling as right knee acute patellar tendinopathy. Before exiting, Little posted zero points (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), one rebound and one block in 12 minutes. Tony Snell opened the second half with the starters in his stead, but Norman Powell (personal) could join the top unit if he's available to play Friday in Boston and if Little is sidelined with the injury.

Exits with right knee injury Little has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against the Heat due to a right knee injury.
Impact Little is reportedly dealing with acute patellar tendinopathy and was ruled out for the remainder of the game shortly after the first half. The extent of the injury is unclear at this time, but his next chance to return to the court would be Friday against Boston if the knee heals up in time. If not, Tony Snell could be in line for additional minutes if Little is sidelined for an extended period of time.

Another solid outing Little recorded 13 points (4-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Monday's 98-88 victory over Orlando.
Impact Little has now scored at least 13 points in five consecutive games. Little is still just 21 years old and has the physical tools (6'5, 220) to blossom into better iterations of himself. Currently, he is still performing at a below-league average player efficiency rating, but carries fantasy appeal for his stable floor in Portland's rotation.
