Matisse Thybulle, who has missed two of the Blazers’ last three games with right ankle soreness, is questionable. Jerami Grant is doubtful after missing seven of the last nine games with a strained right hamstring and a bruised right knee.
Two-way contract player Justin Minaya is questionable given his commitments to the Rip City Remix.
Shaedon Sharpe (lower abdomen surgery), Malcolm Brogdon (right elbow tendonitis) and Robert Williams III (torn right knee ligament) are all out.
Tomorrow’s Clippers Game 2 will be the first of a back-to-back series for the Blazers as they host the Denver Nuggets on Saturday night. The Blazers go on a seven-game road trip next week.
