Excels in limited playing time Holiday (calf) recorded eight points (2-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, two rebounds and one steal across 16 minutes in Sunday's 123-114 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Since he had missed the Trail Blazers' previous 27 games due to a right calf strain, Holiday was eased back into the mix with a sub-20-minute bench role. Aside from an 0-for-3 showing from inside the arc, Holiday was productive during his time on the court. After averaging 33.3 minutes per game while starting in each of Portland's first 12 contests, Holiday should eventually move back to the top unit, though it could take a handful of games before his playing-time restriction is lifted.

Not starting in return Holiday (calf) won't start against the Knicks on Sunday.

Impact Holiday hasn't played since Nov. 14 due to a right calf strain and will be on a minutes restriction during his return to action, per Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland. While the veteran point guard will likely need some time to work his way back to his regular role, his presence should leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Caleb Love and Rayan Rupert.

Will play Sunday Holiday (calf) will play Sunday versus the Knicks, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

Impact Head coach Tiago Splitter acknowledged that with this being Holiday's first game in nearly two months, he will have some minutes restrictions, making Holiday a risky target in daily fantasy leagues. He should be activated in season-long settings, though, and Holiday's return could cut into the playing time of Sidy Cissoko and Caleb Love.

Upgraded to probable Holiday (calf) has been upgraded to probable ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Knicks.

Impact It appears that Holiday will be making his return from what was nearly a two-month layoff, so expect him to be operating with some heavy minutes restrictions in his first game back. Holiday should start, which will likely push Sidy Cissoko back to the second unit and Caleb Love's minutes could dip a bit.

Questionable for Sunday Holiday (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Holiday hasn't played since Nov. 14 due to a right calf strain but is trending in the right direction after receiving a questionable tag. If the veteran point guard is cleared to play, it wouldn't be surprising to see him operate under a minutes restriction. Still, his presence would leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Caleb Love and Rayan Rupert.

Impact The fact that Portland originally labeled Holiday as doubtful is a sign that the veteran floor general is inching closer to returning to the floor.

Not playing Wednesday Holiday (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.

Impact Holiday continues to progress in his recovery from a right calf strain that has kept him sidelined since Nov. 14, having recently been cleared for on-court activities. He's not quite ready to return, but his next chance to play is in Friday's rematch against Houston. Caleb Love -- who has averaged 16.9 points and 3.6 threes over 29.5 minutes per game over his last eight outings -- will continue to serve in an expanded role off the bench for as long as Holiday is sidelined.

Caleb Love will likely continue to see meaningful burn for as long as Holiday is sidelined.
