Returns to starting unit Camara is in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus Atlanta.
Impact Camara will replace Jerami Grant (hamstring) in the starting five Wednesday. Camara is averaging 12.0 points, 8.0 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 30.2 minutes across his last five starting appearances this season.

Returns to NBA The Trail Blazers transferred Badji from the G League's Rip City Remix on Wednesday.
Impact Badji will be available for Wednesday's game versus Atlanta. However, he is unlikely to receive significant playing time.
MARCH 14 โข ROTOWIRE
Gets green light Rupert (ankle) will play in Wednesday's game against Atlanta.
Impact Rupert was initially deemed questionable for the contest but will suit up after dealing with right ankle soreness. With the Trail Blazers at full health on the wing, Rupert will likely be toward the back end of the rotation against the Hawks.
MARCH 14 โข ROTOWIRE
Good to go Wednesday MInaya (illness) will play in Wednesday's game against the Hawks.
Impact Minaya was initially tabbed probable for the contest with an illness. As a fringe rotation piece for Portland, Minaya shouldn't be in fantasy consideration Wednesday.

Closing in on return Head coach Chauncey Billups said Wednesday that Walker (hip) won't be out much longer, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.
Impact Walker is sitting out a fourth straight contest Wednesday due to a strained right hip, but it appears he's getting closer to returning to the hardwood. Considering the Blazers are currently on the first leg of a back-to-back set, it's unlikely he'll be active Thursday. However, he could be back in action Saturday at New Orleans.
MARCH 14 โข ROTOWIRE
Returns to starting lineup Banton is in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Hawks, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.
Impact Banton will replace Scoot Henderson in the starting lineup Wednesday. Banton is averaging 18.8 points, 6.5 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 32.2 minutes across his previous five starts this season.
MARCH 14 โข ROTOWIRE
Won't play Wednesday Grant (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Hawks, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.
Impact It's the first game of a back-to-back, so Grant will hit the sidelines, and his absence will result in more minutes for Dalano Banton, Toumani Camara, Matisse Thbulle and Jabari Walker. Deandre Ayton and Anfernee Simons will be very busy on offense Wednesday night sans Grant.

Under minutes limit, won't start Henderson will be under a minutes restriction and will come off the bench Wednesday against the Hawks, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.
Impact Henderson will be limited for the opening leg of Portland's back-to-back set and will be replaced by Dalano Banton in the starting lineup. While it's unclear exactly how many minutes Henderson will see Wednesday, it's likely that he'll end up in the mid-20s.

Injury Report: Hawks vs Blazers Atlanta begins its five-game road trip with a game in Portland on Wednesday night
MARCH 13 โข SUNHERALD.COM
Likely to play Wednesday Minaya (illness) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game versus the Hawks.
Impact Minaya is expected to return to action Wednesday after missing Portland's previous contest with an illness. However, Minaya has been an inconsistent part of the Trail Blazers' rotation when available.

Iffy with ankle soreness Rupert is questionable for Wednesday's game versus Atlanta with right ankle soreness.
Impact Rupert played just two minutes in his last taste of action, so his status is unlikely to impact the rotation much.
MARCH 12 โข ROTOWIRE
Another absence coming Walker (hip) is out for Wednesday's game versus the Hawks.
Impact Walker's absence streak will extend to four games Wednesday due to a left hip strain. His next chance to suit up is Thursday's matchup with the Knicks.
MARCH 12 โข ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Wednesday Grant (hamstring) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Hawks.
Impact Grant returned from a two-game absence due to right hamstring soreness Monday, finishing with 14 points (5-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 36 minutes. However, the questionable tag suggests that Portland considers him day-to-day. Wednesday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, so a maintenance day could be on the table for one of those.

Increases workload, return date TBD Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups said Monday that Brogdon (elbow) has increased his workload in workouts and is trending in the right direction, but the veteran guard is w...
Impact Billups didn't go into many details regarding what exactly constitutes Brogdon increasing his workload, so it's unclear if the 31-year-old is actually ready to take part in practice or if he's restricted to individual activities at this stage. Whatever the case, Brogdon's return doesn't appear to be imminent, and the non-contending Trail Blazers don't have much incentive to rush a veteran who likely isn't part of their long-term nucleus. Scoot Henderson and Dalano Banton should continue to benefit from heightened roles in the backcourt in the absence of Brogdon, who hasn't played since March 2 due to right elbow tendinitis.

Rusty Monday Grant registered 14 points (5-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Monday's 121-99 loss to the Celtics.
Impact Grant returned from a two-game absence due to right hamstring soreness Monday, although he barely impacted Monday's game, contributing sparse auxiliary stats alongside inefficient scoring. A better matchup awaits Wednesday against Atlanta.
MARCH 12 โข ROTOWIRE
Modest production Monday Banton ended with eight points (2-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and four assists over 22 minutes during Monday's 121-99 loss to the Celtics.
Impact Banton's minute share was solid, although his offensive output underwhelmed. Banton playing behind developmental priority Scoot Henderson and offensive stabilizers in Anfernee Simons, Jerami Grant and Deandre Ayton represents too many mouths to feed in Portland. However, Banton has streaming credibility when any of the aforementioned cast are unavailable for Portland moving forward.
MARCH 12 โข ROTOWIRE
Eight dimes in Monday's start Henderson totaled 13 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and eight assists across 33 minutes during Monday's 121-99 loss to Boston.
Impact Making just his second start since Jan. 14, Henderson led the Blazers in assists, although he also led the team with five turnovers. The third overall pick in the 2023 has had a bumpy rookie campaign due to injuries, but when he's been on the court of late he's been productive. He's scored in double digits in eight straight contests dating back to Jan. 29, averaging 17.0 points, 5.6 assists, 3.0 boards and 1.5 threes over that stretch.

Pops for 17 against Boston Simons had 17 points (6-18 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and three assists in 34 minutes during Monday's 121-99 loss to the Celtics.
Impact The 24-year-old guard saw his streak of games with more than 20 points end at five, but Simons extended his stretch of games with at least three made three-pointers to six. During his hot streak from beyond the arc, he's averaging 26.0 points, 6.5 assists, 4.3 boards, 4.2 threes and 0.8 steals while shooting 43.9 percent from long distance.
