Josh Hart Stats

Portland Trail Blazers forward Josh Hart will be returning for at least one more season. This wasn't a hard call for the organization with Hart only owed $12.9 million for the 2022-2023 campaign. Hart also has a mutual option for the following season, which means he could be in Portland for the next two years. The expectation is that Hart is going to play significant minutes on the rebuilding Blazers roster. He should be able to carry reliable fantasy value, assuming he can actually stay healthy.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Josh Hart (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. This marks the third game in a row that Hart has missed due to a knee issue. Kris Dunn moved into the starting lineup during their last game. He finished with nine points, three assists, and five rebounds in 25 minutes. It's likely that the Blazers continue to ride with Dunn until Hart is able to play again. He'll have low-end streaming value on the banged up Blazers roster.

Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard Josh Hart (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against San Antonio due to left patellar tendinopathy. Hart has recently enjoyed No. 1 scoring option status for an injury-plagued Portland roster, but his absence paves the way for Brandon Williams, Ben McLemore, CJ Elleby, and others to take on significantly elevated offensive roles. The Blazers have little incentive to rush Hart, who has averaged 28.6 PPG over his last five outings, back to action, even as they sit just 2.5 games out of a Play-in Tournament spot. For context, Anfernee Simons (knee), who has been dealing with the same issue, has been sidelined since March 5.

Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard Josh Hart (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game vs. Detroit due to left patellar tendinopathy. Hart has been vital to Portland's offense over the past five contests, in which he has averaged 28.6 points per night. Without him in the mix, CJ Elleby and Ben McLemore figure to get elevated minutes, while Brandon Williams and Trendon Watford are among a group that could be considered the team's top scoring options. While the ailment is not traditionally of the one-game absence variety, Hart's next chance to suit up comes Wednesday against the Spurs.
