Impact Although Nurkic was held to a single-digit scoring total for a second consecutive game Thursday, he remained productive on the boards and tied for the team lead with 11 rebounds.

Anfernee Simons - Quiet production in loss Simons registered 16 points (6-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and three assists in 36 minutes during Thursday's 105-95 loss to Philadelphia.
Impact Simons finished as Portland's third-leading scorer in the contest, but he shot poorly from the field and contributed very little in the way of peripheral stats. The guard committed more turnovers (five) than rebounds (one) and assists (three) combined, and the Blazers were outscored by 11 while he was on the court. Simons remains a standout source of scoring and triples in fantasy, but his production elsewhere will likely continue to be limited.

Jerami Grant - Posts 24 points Thursday Grant closed Thursday's 105-95 loss to the 76ers with 24 points (8-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT) and five rebounds across 39 minutes.
Impact Grant finished one point behind Damian Lillard for the team lead in scoring, but the former's 8-for-14 shooting line was much better than Lillard's 6-for-21 mark. Grant didn't record any defensive stats or assists, but he did shoot a perfect 6-for-6 from the line and chip in five boards. Grant has scored 20-plus points in three of his past five contests and is averaging a healthy 21.7 points on 49.4 percent shooting on the season.

Damian Lillard - Struggles with shot in loss Lillard produced 25 points (6-21 FG, 3-13 3Pt, 10-10 FT), six rebounds, 11 assists, two blocks and two steals across 40 minutes during Thursday's 105-95 loss to the 76ers.
Impact Lillard endured a miserable first half, knocking down just one of 10 attempts from the field. However, he was able to recover and shoot better after intermission to finish with a team-leading 25 points. While his 6-for-21 overall shooting mark won't bring joy to his fantasy managers, the star point guard did manage to prop up free-throw percentages with a perfect 10-for-10 night from the line while adding a pair of steals and blocks. Lillard also contributed 11 dimes to record his eighth double-double of the campaign.

Jusuf Nurkic - Available Thursday Nurkic (calf) will play in and start Thursday's game against the 76ers.
Impact Nurkic was initially tabbed as probable due to soreness in his left calf, and, as expected, he will play. Nuirkic will look to rebound from a poor outing Tuesday, when he scored just six points on 2-of-9 shooting and turned the ball over four times.
