Deni Avdija

POR Forward #8

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Deni Avdija had 20 points (5-of-15 FGs, 8-of-8 FTs), three rebounds, six assists, two steals and two three-pointers against the Rockets on Friday.

Avdija was just 5-of-15 from the field in this one, but made all eight of his free throws on his way to 20 points. The 25-year-old small forward has scored at least 20 points in nine of his last 10 games. Avdija is providing fourth-round per game value over the last two weeks. While his rebounds were down Friday, he’s still a threat to have a triple-double against the Knicks Sunday.
Shaedon Sharpe

POR Guard #17

Shaedon Sharpe had 20 points (8-of-22 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), eight rebounds, five assists and two three-pointers against the Rockets on Friday.

Sharpe wasn’t very efficient with 20 points on 22 field goal attempts, but he also pulled down eight rebounds and had five assists without turning the over the ball over. The 22-year-old shooting guard has had at least 20 points in four of his last five games. Sharpe has provided just 15th-round per game value over the last two weeks. He’ll have one more chance to put up points this week Sunday against the Knicks.
Toumani Camara

POR Forward #33

Toumani Camara had 25 points (9-of-16 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and five three-pointers in the Trail Blazers’ 111-105 victory over the Rockets on Friday.

Camara is averaging 12.8 points per game this year and had had at least 20 points in just one of his last six games entering play Friday. He wasted no time dropping 16 points in the first quarter. The 25-year-old small forward went off for a career-high 25 points on 16 attempts, including five made threes. Camara has provided 11th-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Trail Blazers close out the week against the Knicks on Sunday.
Robert Williams

POR Center-Forward #35

Robert Williams (knee) will not return to Friday’s game against the Rockets.

While Williams missed a few games earlier this month due to left knee injury management, the right knee was the reason for his early exit on Friday. His departure means rotation minutes for Yang Hansen and Duop Reath, but neither would be worth streaming going forward since starter Donovan Clingan is healthy.
Jrue Holiday

POR Guard #5

Jrue Holiday (calf) is out for Friday’s game against the Rockets.

Initially doubtful for Friday’s game, Holiday is now officially out. As has been the case since the veteran guard’s injury, Deni Avdija will continue to serve as Portland’s primary playmaker.
Jerami Grant

POR Forward #9

Jerami Grant (Achilles) is out for Friday’s game against the Rockets.

Counting Friday, Grant will have missed Portland’s last 12 games with an injury the team said wasn’t “long-term.” With Kris Murray (back) also out, the Trail Blazers will once again turn to Sidy Cissoko to fill the void in the starting lineup.
Kris Murray

POR Forward #24

Kris Murray (back) is out for Friday’s game against the Rockets.

Murray did not play in Wednesday’s win over the Rockets, opening up a place in the starting lineup for Sidy Cissoko. With Jerami Grant (Achilles) still out, Cissoko should get another start on Friday.
Jrue Holiday

POR Guard #5

Jrue Holiday (calf) is doubtful for Friday’s game against the Rockets.

Sidelined since November 14, Holiday was cleared to resume on-court activities on New Year’s Day. He’s making progress, but the doubtful tag suggests that Holiday won’t be available on Friday. Deni Avdija will run the show as long as the Trail Blazers are shorthanded on the perimeter, and he’s played at an All-Star level this season.
Toumani Camara

POR Forward #33

Toumani Camara totaled 14 points (5-of-10 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, two steals, two blocks and two three-pointers.

Camara had another well-rounded performance in Wednesday’s win, despite shooting inefficiently from beyond the arc. He made all of his two-point shots, finished statistically as one of the best rebounders and facilitators on the team, and was the only Trail Blazer to record multiple blocks and steals. His fantasy ceiling isn’t sky-high, but he’s proven to be more than capable of streaming together similar stat lines as a nice two-way wing.
Shaedon Sharpe

POR Guard #17

Shaedon Sharpe added 20 points (7-of-17 FGs, 3-of-6 FTs), three assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Wednesday’s win over the Rockets.

Sharpe was one of two Trail Blazers to score at least 20 points in the victory. Three-point shooting almost amounted to half of his scoring total, and his trio of assists was tied for second most on the team. Sharpe didn’t have much production elsewhere from a statistical standpoint, but his scoring was enough to leave him with at least a solid night’s worth of production.
