Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant just played out the final year of his contract that he signed when he was first traded from Denver to Detroit. As rumors will swirl about his landing spot, he expects to stay right where he is in Portland as he offered the same answer as Damian Lillard when asked about it. This year, Grant averaged 20.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game on 47.5% shooting and 40.1% from three. He should be a hot commodity in free agency if Portland can't sign him quick enough.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (quadriceps) remains sidelined ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Clippers. He will now miss his third consecutive game because of a left quad contusion, meaning Trendon Watford could be in line for another start. Watford has averaged nearly a double-double in four starts in 2022-23, making him an ideal replacement for fantasy managers until Grant returns.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (illness) won't play on Friday against the visiting Boston Celtics. Grant didn't suit up in Tuesday's loss to the Knicks, resulting in Trendon Watford taking his place in the starting lineup. Watford has averaged nearly a double-double in three starts in 2022-23, so he'll be a popular fantasy option versus the Celtics if he remains with the first five.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (quad) has been ruled out Tuesday versus the New York Knicks. Grant only played 19 minutes last game and is dealing with a contusion in his quad, forcing him to miss Tuesday's contest. Trendon Watford is expected to get the sport start while Nassir Little should see extra minutes off the bench. Watford is worth a look for fantasy managers in need of rebounds.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (quad) is questionable to play Tuesday versus the New York Knicks. Grant is dealing with a quad contusion and was only able to play 19 minutes in Sunday's loss. Given the Blazers were down most of the game, it's possible Grant was held out as a precaution. If Grant is unable to go, Nassir Little and Trendon Watford would likely see increased roles.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard and forward Jerami Grant will sit out of Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Both players will sit out the first game out of the All-Star break due to rest purposes. This is an interesting move by the Blazers after the players already received multiple rest days during the break. Regardless, Cam Reddish, Shaedon Sharpe and Matisse Thybulle will all see increased roles with the Blazers shorthanded on Thursday. All three of these players are worth streaming, but Sharpe has the highest ceiling between the three of them.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (concussion) has been given the questionable tag for Monday as he currently remains in concussion protocol since Saturday night. He has yet to miss a game since December 17, but barely two days after entering the protocol could mean at least one missed game. If he's not cleared by tipoff, Nassir Little and Shaedon Sharpe are the most likely to pick up more opportunities. As streaming options, they probably wouldn't be a great option except for managers in deep leagues.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (concussion) has passed all of the concussion evaluations and is now listed as available for Friday's contest against the Washington Wizards. The 28-year-old was originally listed as questionable after leaving Wednesday's game following a hard fall on the court. Since he'll be able to return to the floor, Nassir Little will take a hit to his value.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (concussion) had to exit Wednesday's game after he fell and hit his head hard on the court. Now, he's listed as questionable as the team performs more evaluations while he suffers from the symptoms of a concussion. If he does remain sidelined for this game, and even a further extended period of time, look for Trendon Watford to see added opportunities as Justise Winslow (ankle) remains out as well. Watford would be a streaming option in very deep leagues as he hasn't made the most of out of his spot starts or added minutes lately.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (concussion) was unable to finish out Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Grant fell and hit his head hard on the court during the second quarter. He stayed in the game after that, but exited later due to concussion-like symptoms. It remains to be seen if Grant is going to be forced to miss time because of this injury. Jabari Walker started in the second half for Portland, but he doesn't have great streaming appeal. Possibly, Drew Eubanks would see an increased role, but fantasy managers will have to wait and see.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant was reportedly offered a four-year, $112 million deal by the team. The 28-year-old has bounced around the association since being drafted in the second round of the 2014 NBA Draft, making stops in Philadelphia, OKC, Denver, Detroit, and Portland. He's arguably having the best year of his career, averaging 21.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.4 assists while shooting a career-high 42.1% from deep. Grant has yet to accept the offer. However, with Portland retaining his Bird Rights, he will be eligible for considerably more money come the offseason. Nevertheless, he'll certainly draw interest from clubs around the league, although the Blazers would love to keep him on the roster. Either way, Grant should continue to offer plenty of production for fantasy managers moving ahead, regardless of where he plays next.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (quad) and center Jusuf Nurkic (illness) are both available for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This is good news for the Blazers who briefly lost Grant mid-game during their last contest due to a quad issue. Nurkic has been dealing with a non-COVID related illness, but it appears he's feeling better now. The expectation is that both players will handle their normal workloads on Friday. Fantasy managers should make sure both players are in their lineups. Drew Eubanks stands to lose the most fantasy value with Nurkic and Grant healthy.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (quad) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He exited briefly during Wednesday's contest, but did end up returning to the game. Despite his return, it sounds like Grant is still dealing with a left quad contusion. Jabari Walker or Shaedon Sharpe would likely be called up to fill the void if Grant is unable to play. Between the two players, Sharpe is the better streaming choice for Friday's slate. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Friday for another update on Grant.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant showed the Pistons what they are missing Monday, racking up a game-high 36 points in a 135-106 win over his former team. His very efficient shooting meant that Grant was able to produce his second-best scoring performance of the season in just 28 minutes. He finished 12-for-17 from the field and had a 5-for-8 record from outside. However, the limited action didn't allow Grant to do much else, with him collecting only two rebounds and one steal. Damian Lillard's presence isn't great for anyone looking to put together a big scoring performance in a Blazers jersey, but Grant has now hit the 30-point plateau twice in the past three games. He had a huge year a couple of seasons back with Detroit, but the 28-year-old is actually doing even better during his debut campaign in Portland, averaging a career-high 22.4 points with superb 44.6-percent shooting from deep.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. He is dealing with back spasms, so the Blazers have decided to take the cautious approach and rest Grant. Both Justise Winslow and Trendon Watford should have increased value with Grant on the sideline. Watford is the slightly better streaming option between the two, but both of them should have decent value with Grant unavailable on Saturday.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant was on fire against the Knicks Friday night, scoring a career-high 44 points in a 132-129 overtime win. He hit 10-for-20 from the field with a 3-for-7 effort from the deep, and Grant was also a very busy man at the foul line, shooting 21-for-28. Unfortunately, he didn't find much time to do anything else, bagging only one rebound and two assists with one block. Grant was finally able to take advantage of Damian Lillard's (calf) absence, with Portland's head honcho ruled out for 1-2 weeks. He should get extra touches again against Brooklyn on Sunday, although Grant recently struggled in the matchup and posted a five-point dud.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant continued his hot streak on Tuesday night as he led his team in scoring during a 117-110 win over the San Antonio Spurs. The 28-year-old dropped 29 points, eight rebounds, one assist and one steal on 9-for-15 shooting overall and 6-for-8 from beyond the arc. Over his last four games, Grant is averaging 29 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.3 steals per game. He's also shooting a crazy 56.9% from the floor and a red-hot 60.6% from three. He'll most likely regress to the mean soon, but you might as well ride this high fantasy-wise as long as possible.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant had his best offensive game of the season Saturday versus Dallas, scoring a season-high 37 points on 13-for-22 shooting in a 117-112 loss. He went 5-for-9 from downtown and has now shot a sizzling 14-for-25 from beyond the arc in his past three appearances. His line on Saturday also included six rebounds, two assists, two blocks and two turnovers in 39 minutes. Grant missed a game earlier in the week with an ankle sprain, but he's come back strongly, and judging by the numbers, the injury isn't bothering the 28-year-old at all.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant continued his success against the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday. The 28-year-old forward has been putting together a strong stretch of play lately. On Thursday, Grant dropped 27 points with eight rebounds, and four assists in the win. He's averaging 21.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists over the last five games with Damian Lillard on the sideline. Grant probably isn't a great long term play, but has interesting short term appeal while Lillard is sidelined.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (ankle) and center Jusuf Nurkic (groin) are listed as questionable for Thursday's meeting with the Pelicans. Both players sat out Wednesday's 105-95 win over Charlotte and could now miss another game, although Damian Lillard (injury management) has already been ruled out for the contest after he played Wednesday night and the team might want to have its other big guns on the court against New Orleans. However, if Grant and Nurkic remain out, the trio of Justise Winslow, Drew Eubanks and Trendon Watford is set to benefit again. The first two joined the starting squad Wednesday and Watford had a good showing off the bench.
