Sidy Cissoko - Questionable Sunday Cissoko (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Hawks.

Impact Cissoko is in jeopardy of missing the second leg of this back-to-back set after recording zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT) and one assist over seven minutes during Friday's loss to the Hornets. If the 21-year-old forward joins Deni Avdija (back) and Robert Williams (knee) on the sidelines, Kris Murray, Matisse Thybulle and Jerami Grant are candidates to see increased minutes.

Yang Hansen - Tagged as questionable Sunday Hansen is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Hawks due to mid-back soreness.

Impact Hansen was able to play through the issue in Thursday's win over the Bulls, though he saw just two minutes of playing time. However, if he's cleared to play Sunday, Hansen would be in line for a larger role off the bench due to the absence of Robert Williams (knee).

Robert Williams III - Not playing Sunday Williams has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Hawks due to left knee injury management, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Williams is coming off a double-double performance in Thursday's win over the Bulls. He will sit out of Sunday's contest while managing a left knee injury, and his next chance to play is Wednesday against the Grizzlies. If he's cleared to play, Yang Hansen (back) would be poised to serve as the Blazers' backup center behind Donovan Clingan on Sunday.

Donovan Clingan - Available to play Clingan (illness) is available to play Saturday against the Hornets.

Deni Avdija - Not playing Saturday Avdija (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Hornets.

Impact Clingan will go through pregame shootaround, at which point the Trail Blazers' medical staff will have a better idea of whether the second-year center will be able to suit up for Saturday's matinee. Scoot Henderson entered the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Bulls and would likely remain in an elevated role if Clingan is not cleared to return.
