Portland Trail Blazers
Injury is taking a major toll on the Blazers who are recognizing precisely how much they miss Damian Lillard.
While Portland was already without Jusuf Nurkic, Zach Collins and Rodney Hood losing their superstar might be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.

On Thursday despite holding a lead over the Pacers, head coach Terry Stotts simply didn’t have enough depth to counter Indiana. Portland made a late surge but lost for the fifth time in six contests.
In the loss, Portland’s bench could only muster 14 cumulative points. CJ McCollum did his best to carry the load with 28 points, eight assists, and three rebounds.
Hassan Whiteside registered a double-double of 18 points and 16 rebounds while Gary Trent Jr. (20) and Carmelo Anthony (12) were the only other double-figure contributors.
Two starters lead all the stat categories and with Damian Lillard topping scoring (29.5 points), assists (7.9) and steals (1.0). Hassan Whiteside tops rebounds (14.1), field goal percentage (61.1%), and blocks (3.1).
Lillard is expecting to remain out at least until March with the groin injury. Jusuf Nurkic (leg) is out indefinitely while Zach Collins (shoulder) is projected to return in March.
Rodney Hood (Achilles) will miss the remainder of the season.
Atlanta Hawks
The Hawks enter this match for the second game of a back to back set playing the Nets on Friday. Prior to that the Hawks last played on Wednesday losing to the Orlando Magic.
