Deni Avdija - Out again Thursday Avdija (back) will remain on the inactive list for Thursday's game in Chicago.

Impact Thursday will mark Avdija's second straight game on the sidelines, and it's not a great sign that he continues to get ruled out 24 hours in advance of tipoff. Kris Murray, Sidy Cissoko and Mattisse Thybulle will continue to pick up the slack in Avdija's absence.

Yang Hansen - Dealing with back injury Hansen is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Bulls due to mid-back soreness.

Impact Hansen may have picked up the injury in the G League during the Rip City Remix's 118-113 loss to Santa Cruz on Sunday, when he posted 11 points, 12 rebounds, three assists and two blocks over 29 minutes. Robert Williams (foot) is also listed as questionable, so Sidy Cissoko could see some minutes at center behind starter Donovan Clingan, depending on who is available for Thursday's contest.

Robert Williams III - Deemed questionable Williams (foot) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Chicago.

Impact Williams missed Portland's most recent game due to a sore foot, and he's at risk of missing a second straight game. The veteran center is averaging 6.3 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.5 blocks across 16.2 minutes per game this season.

Jules Bernard - Agrees to two-way deal with Wolves Bernard agreed to a two-way contract with the Timberwolves on Wednesday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

Impact Bernard has been tearing it up for Minnesota's G League affiliate this season, posting averages of 22.8 points, 6.7 rebounds, 5.2 assists, and 1.1 steals per game with the Iowa Wolves, and now he'll join the parent club for the remainder of the season. Bernard will bring some emergency depth to the Timberwolves backcourt, but he'll likely have an inconsistent role in the rotation.
