  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Won't play Sunday

    Simons (foot) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Thunder.

    This absence will mark Simons' third straight game on the sidelines, and his immediate future is a bit cloudy, especially if the Blazers decide to shut down Damian Lillard (calf) for the rest of the season, as it wouldn't be shocking if they take that same route with other starters as well. Simons has missed nine of a possible 15 games since the All-Star break, averaging 18.3 points per game and shooting 41.7 percent from the floor in the six games he's been healthy.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Still out Friday

    Simons (foot) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bulls.

    Simons continues to deal with a foot injury and will be unavailable for a second consecutive game Friday. Shaedon Sharpe took his place in the starting lineup Wednesday against the Jazz, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him do so again Friday.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Won't play against Utah

    Simons is out for Wednesday's game versus the Jazz due to right foot soreness.

    Simons has already missed four games in March and won't play Wednesday. In his absence, Cam Reddish and Shaedon Sharpe will likely receive increased minutes. Simons' next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with Chicago.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Shooting struggles continue

    Simons recorded 16 points (6-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal in 33 minutes during Sunday's 117-102 loss to the Clippers.

    Simons is shooting just 38.5 percent from the field and 25.0 percent from deep over his past four appearances. He was able to somewhat salvage his fantasy production Sunday by dishing out six assists, his most since Feb. 13, and recording at least one tally in each defensive category for the first time since Feb. 8.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Struggles throughout contest

    Simons racked up 17 points (5-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-8 FT), one rebound, four assists and one steal in 39 minutes during Friday's 126-112 loss to the Celtics.

    Simons had a tough time getting going with nine first-half points on just 3-of-9 shooting from the field while failing to record any assists or rebounds. He made only two more shots in the second half, along with three of six free throw attempts before finishing second on the team with 17 points on the night. The shooting guard is now shooting 34.2 percent from the field and 27.7 percent from three over his last two games.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Scores empty 22 points

    Simons contributed 22 points (7-20 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 5-6 FT), one rebound and one assist in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 123-107 loss to the Knicks.

    Simons appears to be over his recent ankle injury, popping off for 22 points including three triples. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. Not only did he fail to record a defensive stat, but he added two combined rebounds and assists while shooting a woeful 7-of-20 from the floor. While there is a place for Simons in all 12-team leagues, his lack of peripheral production does cap his overall upside.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Struggles from deep Sunday

    Simons provided 17 points (7-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and four assists over 25 minutes during Sunday's 127-110 loss to the Pelicans.

    Simons couldn't repeat the 34-point performance he delivered against the 76ers on Friday, and he had a poor outing when it came to his three-point shooting. Overall, his numbers have been trending in the wrong direction, and he's failed to reach the 20-point mark in five of his last six appearances.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Makes huge impact in return

    Simons logged 34 points (13-22 FG, 8-12 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound and two assists over 29 minutes during Friday's 120-119 loss to the 76ers.

    Simons didn't show any signs of rust after missing his team's last four contests and seven of the last eight games due to an ankle injury. He caught fire from beyond the arc, scoring 24 of his 34 points from deep in the tightly-contested loss. This marks his most made triples since Feb. 3, when he drained eight threes against Washington.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Available, starting Friday

    Simons (ankle) will start Friday's game against Philadelphia, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

    After missing seven of the last eight games, Simons has been cleared to return and will immediately return to the starting lineup. Over nine appearances since the start of February, he's averaged 18.2 points and 4.7 assists in 32.3 minutes per game. However, it wouldn't be surprising if he faces a minutes restriction Friday.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Questionable Friday

    Simons (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against Philadelphia.

    Simons has missed the last four games due to a sprained right ankle, but it's encouraging that he's listed as questionable for Friday's matchup rather than being ruled out immediately. If he remains sidelined, Cam Reddish should continue to start for the Trail Blazers.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Ruled out Sunday

    Sunday's contest will mark Simons' fifth absence in the team's last six games with a sprained right ankle. Cam Reddish should be expected to remain in the starting lineup, while Shaedon Sharpe and Keon Johnson are candidates to receive more minutes off the bench. Simons will have a chance to suit up for the closing end of the back-to-back set Monday in Detroit.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Downgraded to out

    Simons (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Atlanta, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Doubtful to play Friday

    Simons (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game versus the Hawks.

    Simons indicated after Wednesday's game versus the Pelicans that he would likely miss Friday's festivities, and his doubtful designation aligns with that train of thought. Cam Reddish may be the most likely option to join the starting unit if Simons sits as expected.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Expects to sit Friday

    Simons (ankle) suggested after Wednesday's 121-110 loss to the Pelicans that he doesn't expect to play in Friday's game in Atlanta, Jason Quick of The Athletic reports.

    After missing three straight games with a Grade 2 right ankle sprain, Simons was cleared to return to the lineup Wednesday, but he played just 20 minutes before exiting in the third quarter upon aggravating the injury. Though neither Simons nor head coach Chauncey Billups shed much light on the extent of his setback, look for the Trail Blazers to err on the side of caution and hold the shooting guard out for the start of their upcoming road trip. Cam Reddish -- who started six straight games before moving to the bench Wednesday -- is the most likely candidate to replace Simons on the Blazers' top unit.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Aggravates ankle injury

    Simons won't return to Wednesday's game against the Pelicans due to a right ankle sprain.

    After being diagnosed with a Grade 2 ankle sprain following his early exit from a Feb. 14 loss to the Wizards, Simons missed just three games before he was surprisingly cleared to play Wednesday. However, it didn't take long for Simons to aggravate the injury, as he exited Wednesday's game in the third quarter and finished with four points (2-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 20 minutes. Even if the setback doesn't prove to be too significant, the Trail Blazers are likely to take a cautious approach with Simons, who may not be ready to play in the team's next game Friday in Atlanta.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Will return Wednesday

    Simons (ankle) will return to the floor for Wednesday's matchup with the Pelicans, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports.

    This will be Simons' first game back on the court since Feb. 14, so he might have his minutes monitored in this one. Still, it's a solid matchup in what should be an uptempo game, so Simons is safe to activate in season-long settings. His return will likely result in either Cam Reddish or Matisse Thybulle heading back to the second unit, and Shaedon Sharpe's minutes could dip.

  • Trail Blazers' Anfernee Simons: Questionable Wednesday

    Simons (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.

    Simons has missed the last three matchups due to a Grade 2 ankle sprain but will be in the mix to return to the court Wednesday. Once he's cleared to return, Cam Reddish, Keon Johnson and Shaedon Sharpe could see their roles decrease slightly.
