Grant

Grant’s season has come to a disappointing end. He has not played in a game since March 9. The veteran forward finished the season as a 12th-round player in eight- and nine-cat formats, shooting 37.3 percent from the field and offering limited value outside of the points and three-point categories. Grant is not a player who should be selected with a top-100 draft pick next fall, whether you’re talking points or category leagues.

Grant remains out for Friday’s game, and it would be surprising if he played on Sunday. Shaedon Sharpe has been his replacement in the starting lineup, but he’s questionable for Friday. If Sharpe also sits, Rayan Rupert and Kris Murray are the most likely options to fill the void.

Portland finally did it. They immediately ruled Grant out instead of listing him as doubtful first, which was a month-long trend. Grant was already unlikely to play again this season, and this is just further evidence. Shaedon Sharpe will continue to start in his place. Henderson’s continued absence will allow Dalano Banton to continue to play a large role, but whether or not Banton starts will depend on the status of Anfernee Simons, who is questionable.

Grant’s continued absence is unsurprising; managers whose leagues run through Week 23 would be wise to drop him onto the waiver wire. Sidy Cissoko is available and may play rotation minutes, especially with Deni Avdija also out. However, there’s no need to consider streaming him. As for Reath, he has not played the minutes needed to impact fantasy basketball, so his absence will not make a significant difference.

Grant has not appeared in a game since March 9, which is unlikely to change on Sunday. Deni Avdija has been firmly entrenched in the starting lineup ever since and has done enough to merit being rostered in most fantasy leagues. As for Henderson, Sunday’s game will be the fifth he’s missed due to concussion protocols. Dalano Banton has played consistent rotation minutes, recently starting since the Blazers were also without Anfernee Simons.

No surprise here as Grant is set to miss his 13th game in a row with a knee injury. Camara is out after injuring his ankle Thursday against the Raptors. Shaedon Sharpe will continue to start for Grant while Matisse Thybulle and Kris Murray could see increased minutes with Camara out.

Grant has missed 12 straight games, and it’s unlikely we’ll see him on the court again this season. Shaedon Sharpe should continue to start in his place. Reath’s injury is less impactful, but it should free up more minutes for Jabari Walker.

As expected, this will be a 12th-straight absence for Grant, who hasn’t played a game in April since 2021. Shaedon Sharpe will continue to start in his place.

Grant has missed 11 games in a row with a knee injury. He’s not expected to return Thursday given his doubtful listing. Shaedon Sharpe will continue to start in Grant’s place if that is indeed the case.

This will be an 11th-straight absence for Grant with no end in sight. Even if Portland continues to list him as doubtful, there isn’t a glimmer of hope that he will play again this season. Shaedon Sharpe will continue to start.
