Jerami Grant News, Rumors, Updates - Portland Trail Blazers

Logs 22 points in 22minutes Grant notched 22 points (6-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 22 minutes during Saturday's 132-116 victory over the Lakers.

Impact Grant got an opportunity to stretch his legs and test his Achilles injury for the second consecutive game. His services came in handy, as the team logged another win despite Deni Avdija's (back) absence. Grant is unlikely to break into the starting lineup when Avdija returns, and he may end up on the sidelines Sunday due to the back-to-back scenario.

Will play Saturday Grant (Achilles) is available for Saturday's game against the Lakers, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Grant has managed to shed his probable tag and will likely come off the bench in just his second game back from an Achilles injury. He logged 23 minutes Thursday and could very well sit around that mark again Saturday.

On track to play Grant (Achilles) is probable for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Grant is trending in the right direction after the team added him to the injury report as questionable Friday. He managed to return to the hardwood Thursday after a lengthy absence, logging 16 points in 23 minutes, so it's expected the Blazers will keep a close eye on his playing time again Saturday, assuming he's ultimately cleared to play.

Questionable for Saturday Grant (Achilles) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Grant returned to action Thursday after missing 14 games with left Achilles tendonitis and contributed 16 points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), three assists, two rebounds and two blocks in 23 minutes. As part of managing his recovery, he carries a questionable tag for Saturday's matchup against the Lakers. If Grant is sidelined, the Trail Blazers could lean more heavily on Sidy Cissoko with additional opportunities for Rayan Rupert and Duop Reath.

Lives at free-throw line in return Grant (Achilles) tallied 16 points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), three assists, two rebounds and two blocks across 23 minutes Thursday in the Trail Blazers' 117-101 win over the Hawks...

Impact Back in action after missing Portland's previous 14 games due to left Achilles tendinitis, Grant was deployed off the bench Thursday, likely as a means for the Trail Blazers to better manage his workload following the extended absence. Grant still finished second on the team in scoring to only Shaedon Sharpe (24 points), with the 31-year-old getting nearly half of his points at the charity stripe. Though he may end up sitting out one game of the Trail Blazers' upcoming Saturday/Sunday back-to-back set versus the Lakers and Kings, respectively, Grant should be in line for at least a slight uptick in playing time in his next appearance.

Cleared to play Thursday Grant (Achilles) will play Thursday against the Hawks, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

Impact Head coach Tiago Splitter stated before the game that Grant will play, but he won't start and will be on a minutes limit. This likely means Sidy Cissoko will get another opportunity to start at power forward.

Impact After spending nearly a full month in recovery mode with left Achilles tendonitis, Grant finally appears to be ready to retake the floor Thursday.

Doubtful for Tuesday Grant (Achilles) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Warriors.

Impact Although Grant is likely to miss his 14th consecutive contest due to left Achilles tendonitis, it's a positive sign that he isn't being ruled out a day in advance of tipoff. If the veteran forward is ultimately ruled out, Sidy Cissoko would likely continue to see an increased role.

Not playing vs. New York Grant (Achilles) is out for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Grant hasn't played since Dec. 18 due to a nagging Achilles injury, and it seems he doesn't have a clear date for his return to the hardwood. Caleb Love should continue to see steady minutes with Grant out, and the veteran will aim to be ready for Tuesday's matchup against the Warriors.

Still out Friday Grant (Achilles) will remain on the inactive list for Friday's game versus Houston.

Impact Grant hasn't played since Dec. 18, and it's not a great sign that he continues to get ruled out 24 hours in advance of tipoff. The Trail Blazers haven't offered any updates on where Grant is in the rehab process, so for now, Grant should be considered doubtful for Sunday's game against the Knicks. Kris Murray and Caleb Love will continue to pick up the slack in Grant's absence.
