Nassir Little - Likely available Tuesday Little (knee) is listed as probable for Tuesday's contest against the Timberwolves, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.
Impact Little is expected to once again play through right knee pain. Since landing on the injury report, the third-year forward has totaled 26 points, 15 rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block over his last two games.
JANUARY 24, 2022 โข ROTOWIRE
Dennis Smith Jr. - Listed probable Tuesday Smith (ankle) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, Blazers radio voice Jay Allen reports.
Impact Once again, the Blazers have included Smith on the injury report, but he's yet to miss any time with the right ankle sprain he's battled for the last several games. Smith saw 14 minutes of action off the bench against Toronto on Sunday and posted five points, six assists and one rebound. With Damian Lillard (abdomen) sidelined for several more weeks, Smith should continue picking up bench minutes behind Anfernee Simons and CJ McCollum.

Cody Zeller - Remains sidelined Tuesday Zeller (knee) is out Tuesday against Minnesota, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.
Impact Zeller will miss a seventh straight game due to a sore right knee. Whether he'll be available for Wednesday's game against Dallas remains to be seen.
JANUARY 24, 2022 โข ROTOWIRE
Robert Covington - Probable Tuesday Covington is probable for Tuesday's game against Minnesota due to a left finger injury, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.
Impact Covington had a well-rounded performance in Sunday's win over the Raptors and posted nine points, five rebounds, five assists, two steals and two blocks in 31 minutes. Although the 31-year-old is now dealing with a finger injury, he should be able to play through the issue Tuesday.
JANUARY 24, 2022 โข ROTOWIRE
Norman Powell - Not listed on injury report Powell (personal) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, Jay Allen of NBC Sports Northwest Rip City Radio 620 reports.
Impact A combination of COVID-19 protocols and a personal matter combined to sideline Powell for the last eight games, but it looks like he'll finally make his return to action Tuesday. Normally, Powell is a high-minute player on the wing, but given the layoff it's possible he could be eased back into action for a game or two.
JANUARY 24, 2022 โข ROTOWIRE
CJ McCollum - First double-double since return McCollum finished Sunday's 114-105 win over Toronto with 19 points (8-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt), 10 rebounds, six assists and two steals over 38 minutes.
Impact McCollum has scored at least 16 points in each of his four games since returning from a lengthy absence, but this was also the first double-double he's recorded on the campaign. As if that was not enough, the six assists he dished out represented the third-best mark in that category this season.
JANUARY 24, 2022 โข ROTOWIRE
Ben McLemore - Drains five treys Sunday McLemore had 17 points (6-9 FG, 5-7 3Pt) and one rebound across 18 minutes during Sunday's 114-105 victory over Toronto.
Impact McLemore has always been a lethal scorer off the bench, and Sunday's game was another perfect example of what he can accomplish when his shooting touch is at his best. The veteran guard has scored in double digits in seven of his last eight appearances, averaging 13.0 points and shooting 42.5 percent from the field -- and 42.2 percent from deep -- in that span.
JANUARY 24, 2022 โข ROTOWIRE
Jusuf Nurkic - Keeps double-double streak alive Nurkic accumulated 11 points (5-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-5 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 31 minutes during Sunday's 114-105 win over the Raptors.
Impact The big man continues to thrive on both ends of the court, and he's now posted a double-double in each of his last five appearances. In fact, Nurkic has recorded double-digit points and rebounds in nine of his last 11 outings. He's putting up 17.2 points and 13.3 boards per contest during that 11-game stretch.

Impact Powell will miss his eighth straight game Sunday due to a personal matter. However, the Trail Blazers hope to have their starting small forward back in the mix soon. Portland opens up a four-game week Tuesday against the Timberwolves, but there still isn't a specific return date set.
