Absence to continue Wednesday Simons (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

Impact Simons next opportunity to take the court comes Friday versus Miami, while Wednesday will represent his third consecutive absence due to left knee tendinitis. Scoot Henderson has capitalized in an enlarged role, averaging 19.8 points and 6.3 rebounds while connecting on 43.3 percent of 16.8 shots per game across his last four contests.

Contributes at both ends Monday Camara totaled 12 points (4-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, two blocks and two steals across 35 minutes during Monday's 110-92 loss to the Rockets.

Impact Camara scored in double digits for the third consecutive game, and while his numbers have not been eye-popping, he's been serviceable in a struggling Portland team. He could be worth a flier in deep formats or as a streaming option, as he's started in all but one of his 13 appearances this month, averaging 8.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists and a combined 1.4 steals-plus-blocks per game.

Shines off bench in loss Banton accumulated 28 points (11-21 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal over 39 minutes during Monday's 110-92 loss to Houston.

Impact Banton has been one of the top performers in recent weeks for a struggling Blazers team, and while a bench role might limit his upside, he seems to be thriving as a scoring option for Portland. He has scored in double digits in all but one of his 15 appearances this month (seven starts), averaging 17.4 points, 5.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game in that span.

Posts 15 points in loss to HOU Henderson amassed 15 points (6-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and four assists across 25 minutes during Monday's 110-92 loss to Houston.

Impact The Trail Blazers are dealing with a rash of injuries in the backcourt, and that should allow Henderson to remain in a starting role for the time being, although the fact that the team is not playing for anything except a high pick in the 2024 NBA Draft should boost his chances of seeing extended minutes. Henderson has been doing a good job of late since he's averaging 18.6 points, 6.0 assists and 3.6 rebounds per game over his last five appearances, but the efficiency continues to be an issue, as he's shooting 39.3 percent from the field in that span.
