  5H ago • By RotoWire

  Ayton (finger) is out for Friday's game against the Rockets. Ayton continues to deal with a right finger sprain and will miss a fifth straight contest Friday. It remains to be seen if he'll be able to suit up Saturday in the second half of his back-to-back set against the Rockets, but in the meantime, Donovan Clingan will remain as the starting center.

  Ayton (finger) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Rockets. Ayton has missed the Trail Blazers' last four games, and the doubtful tag suggests it's very unlikely that he'll suit up for Friday's contest. If that's the case, then Donovan Clingan will continue to start at center.

  Ayton (finger) is out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder. Ayton had been listed as doubtful heading into the day, so it comes as little surprise that he'll miss a fourth straight game Wednesday. Per Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland, head coach Chauncey Billups said Monday that Ayton still hasn't fully participated in practice, so the veteran center may need to put in some work Thursday before the Trail Blazers decide whether he'll be available for a Friday/Saturday back-to-back set in Houston.

  Ayton (finger) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Thunder. Ayton is in danger of missing his fourth consecutive game due to a right finger sprain. The big man is still considered day-to-day while managing the injury, though if he is unable to return Wednesday, Donovan Clingan and Robert Williams are both candidates for an uptick in playing time.

  Ayton (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Hawks. Ayton will miss his third consecutive game due to a right finger sprain. The big man underwent imaging on the index finger which revealed a deep contusion of the proximal phalanx, though he will still be considered day-to-day until the team provides an update that says otherwise. Donovan Clingan and Robert Williams are both likely to receive an uptick in playing time with Ayton sidelined. His next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Thunder.
