Injured Trail Blazers working toward returning

The Portland Trail Blazers may soon have one center back, but another and a starting forward may still be out.

Starting center Deandre Ayton, who missed Saturday’s game against Miami due to calf pain, worked out on Monday and might make a comeback against the Brooklyn Nets at the Moda Center on Tuesday, according to Blazers coach Chauncey Billups.

Billups stated, “I think DA will be alright tomorrow.”

Robert Williams III, the backup center who missed two games due to sickness, didn’t seem prepared to play again.

According to Billups, he wasn’t feeling well today. Absolutely not.

Moving forward Due to a facial contusion, Jerami Grant has missed seven games.

According to Billups, he is intensifying. He took part in some activities today. However, he didn’t when we went live. There is nothing particularly noteworthy to report.

Billups left things open-ended with all three, even though it looks like Ayton will return and Grant and Williams won’t likely play against the Nets.

According to Billups, a lot can occur in a day.
