Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Available to play
Rotowire
Clingan (illness) is available to play Saturday against the Hornets.
Clingan was a true game-time call after missing Thursday's game against the Bulls. The second-year center is going to give it a go, and that means Robert Williams could be less involved for Portland.
Trail Blazers interim head coach Tiago Splitter told reporters that Clingan (illness) "felt better" but is still considered a game-time decision for Saturday's game against the Hornets, Owen O'Connor of SI.com reports.
Clingan will go through pregame shootaround, at which point the Trail Blazers' medical staff will have a better idea of whether the second-year center will be able to suit up for Saturday's matinee. Scoot Henderson entered the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Bulls and would likely remain in an elevated role if Clingan is not cleared to return.

Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Iffy for Saturday
Rotowire
Clingan (illness) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Hornets.
Clingan remains in jeopardy of sitting out after also missing Thursday's game against the Bulls. Another potential absence for Clingan on Saturday would likely result in an expanded role at center for Robert Williams, who would be a strong plug-and-play fantasy option in this case.

Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Not playing Thursday
Rotowire
Clingan (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Bulls.
Clingan was added to Thursday afternoon's injury report due to an illness, which is severe enough for the second-year center to be sidelined against Chicago. Robert Williams (foot) and Yang Hansen (back) have both been cleared to play and should see more minutes off the bench while Scoot Henderson enters the starting lineup. Saturday against the Hornets is Clingan's next chance to play.

Rotowire
Clingan is questionable for Thursday's game against the Bulls due to an illness.
Clingan was a late addition to the injury report, and that's not a great sign for his availability. Robert Williams (foot) is also questionable, so the Trail Blazers could be very thin up front. Meanwhile, rookie center Yang Hansen (back) is also questionable.

Clingan contributed 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and four blocks across 28 minutes during Monday's 135-118 win over the 76ers.

Clingan failed to hit the double-double milestone after reaching it three consecutive times, but the second-year pro has several to his credit. He currently ranks 13th in the league with 20 double-doubles.

Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Grabs 16 boards in loss
Rotowire
Clingan logged 13 points (6-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt), 16 rebounds, two assists and three steals in 29 minutes during Friday's 110-98 loss to the Raptors.
Clingan recorded his fourth double-double in the past five games, continuing to deliver elite rebounding numbers on a regular basis. While the production has certainly been adequate, his lack of blocks is something that can't be overlooked. In his past six games, Clingan has tallied two total blocks, less than adequate for a player whose value is built around defensive contributions. Look for him to try and get back on track against the Celtics on Monday.
