Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (concussion) will miss a third consecutive game on Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. He remains in concussion protocol after sustaining a head injury in a matchup against the New York Knicks a week ago. Jerami Grant (knee) has also missed time, which has given Kris Murray more playing time. Murray had a mixed performance on Monday against the Washington Wizards, registering five points, 10 rebounds, three assists, and four steals in 37 minutes, with 25 percent shooting from the field.
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (concussion) won't be playing against the Washington Wizards on Monday. Walker has been in the league's concussion protocol, and he will miss his second straight game due to a head injury he suffered in a loss to the Knicks on Wednesday. In his third full season in the NBA, the 22-year-old has made 50 appearances, posting averages of 4.7 and 3.5 rebounds across 11.8 minutes per contest. His next chance to suit up comes on Wednesday against Memphis, but it's unclear if he will be available.
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hand) is available to play ahead of Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Walker was tagged as questionable coming into this game due to a hand issue, but is feeling good enough to play now. He'll likely play an increased role with Deni Avdija (quad) remaining sidelined for the second straight game. Walker should be considered a decent low-end streaming option while Avdija is out.
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) will be available for Saturday's clash against the Pelicans. The team has upgraded him from a questionable status. Walker returns after missing five games with a right hip inflammation. The 21-year-old was rolling before getting hurt, and it will be interesting to see if he can carry on the momentum Saturday. Walker is certainly in a good position to post a third double-double in five appearances, as Jerami Grant (hamstring) remains out, and his absence leaves a lot of frontcourt minutes to fill.
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) was upgraded to questionable heading into Saturday's matchup with the Pelicans. The 2022 No. 57 overall pick has been a critical component of Chauncey Billups' rotation this season, averaging 8.5 and 6.6 rebounds in 22 minutes per contest. He's missed the last five games because of a hip issue and was initially labeled doubtful for the meeting with New Orleans, so he's at least moving in a favorable direction. However, the 21-year-old still has an uphill battle before being cleared. Fortunately, Billups indicated Walker is "getting close," meaning he could be back in the next few games. With Jerami Grant (hamstring) also in line to sit out on Saturday, Toumani Camara and Kris Murray should continue to warrant attention from fantasy managers.
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) is on the injury report as doubtful ahead of Saturday's game against New Orleans. The 21-year-old has been out for five games, but Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups noted earlier in the week that Walker's return is getting close. However, Saturday's game might come too soon for Walker. With Jerami Grant (hamstring) also doubtful for Saturday, Toumani Camara and Kris Murray appear set for a busy night. The two youngsters have done well at times, but Saturday's matchup is a tricky one against a very good defensive team.
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) was out for a fourth consecutive game on Wednesday versus Atlanta, but he is expected to make a return soon. Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups said Walker is getting closer and won't be out too much longer. These are encouraging words from Billups, but Thursday's matchup against the Knicks likely still comes too soon for Walker, who's averaging 8.5 points and 6.5 rebounds in 22.1 minutes for his sophomore campaign. Following Thursday's action, Portland is scheduled to face New Orleans on Saturday, giving Walker a few more days to shake off right hip inflammation.
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) has been ruled out for the third consecutive game due to a right hip strain. Walker was receiving extra minutes this season since the Trail Blazers have dealt with lengthy injury reports and an ever-changing starting lineup. His best fantasy value came as a streaming option as he provided seven double-doubles this season and even a 20-point game. While he's watching from the sidelines, Toumani Camara, Matisse Thybulle, and Kris Murray will all see plenty of playing time. Jerami Grant (hamstring) will step back into his starting role as well if he's later upgraded to available.
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. This is bad timing with Jerami Grant (hamstring) and Deandre Ayton (hand) sidelined as well. The Blazers are going to be forced to rely on Toumani Camara and Duop Reath to play big minutes in the rotation. Both players could be viable streaming options given the Blazers' lack of depth. Hopefully, Walker can return after this game, but fantasy managers will have to check back for another update.
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (hip) is on the latest injury report and has been tagged as questionable with a right hip contusion. Walker is one of eight Blazers that made an appearance on the injury report and only three seem to have a chance of playing on Friday. The 21-year-old has seen some very high-minute games but also some that are like the last game where he only received 18 minutes. If he's able to play while the others listed as questionable do not, then he should have a much bigger role against the Houston Rockets. If he's unable to suit up though, Jerami Grant (questionable - hamstring) and Kris Murray should remain in the starting five and receive more minutes.
