Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Slotted to bench
Walker will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Suns, Casey Holdahl of the team's official site reports.
Walker will retreat to a bench role due to Donovan Clingan entering the starting lineup. Walker has not been much of a factor of late, averaging just 3.2 points and 4.0 rebounds in 16.0 minutes per game over his last five appearances.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Starting vs. San Antonio
Walker will start Friday's game against the Spurs, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.
Walker will get the nod at center due to the lack of depth in the Blazers frontcourt. Deandre Ayton (illness) and Robert Williams (not injury related) are out, while Donovan Clingan will operate under a minutes restriction, so Walker is the next man up to start at the center position. Walker averages 3.0 points and 3.1 rebounds across 10.8 minutes per game this season. This will be his first start of the 2024-25 campaign.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Serves as backup center
Walker contributed two points (1-5 FG), three rebounds and one assist across 11 minutes during Wednesday's 121-114 loss to Indiana.
Walker spent time as the backup center, playing behind the returning Deandre Ayton. With the Trail Blazers very limited when it comes to frontcourt depth, it was Walker who played over Duop Reath, whom many saw as the logical backup choice. It is unclear whether this may have been a matchup-based decision, meaning Reath could very well be back in the rotation against the Kings on Friday, especially if Robert Williams (concussion) remains out.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Season-high 23 minutes Monday
Walker notched nine points (4-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal over 23 minutes during Monday's 123-98 loss to the Grizzlies.
Walker finished with 20-plus minutes for the first time this season. He also scored his second-highest mark of the year, with his season high of 15 points dating back to Oct. 28 against Sacramento. If Jerami Grant (knee) misses additional time, Walker could see a slight uptick in playing time off the bench.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Season-high points in loss
Walker amassed 15 points (5-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT) and six rebounds over 19 minutes during Monday's 111-98 loss to the Kings.
The 22-year-old finished as the club's third-highest scorer behind Deandre Ayton (20) and Scoot Henderson (18) in an efficient night from the field. Walker set his season high in minutes played and points scored Monday, and he is set to contribute double-digit minutes off the bench moving forward. The third-year forward has averaged 6.0 points and 4.3 rebounds across 14.5 minutes per game in four regular-season appearances.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Ready for training camp
Portland general manager Joe Cronin said Monday that Walker (knee) will be ready for training camp, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.
Walker missed the final game of the 2023-24 season due to left knee tendinitis, but the franchise was just being cautious. Walker played a key role for the team, making 72 regular-season appearances with averages of 8.9 points and 7.1 rebounds in 23.6 minutes per game. Minutes won't be as easy to come by this time around, however, as Jerami Grant is healthy and the Trail Blazers added Deni Avdija this offseason.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Won't play Sunday
Walker (knee) is inactive Sunday versus Sacramento.
Walker's second season will end with 72 appearances, with the 6-foot-8 forward averaging 8.9 points and 7.1 rebounds in 23.6 minutes per game. Improving as a shooter will be a key factor in Walker's potential to step into a larger role in 2024-25, as he connected on just 29.5 percent of 1.9 three-pointers per game this season.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Unlikely to play Sunday
Walker is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Kings with left knee tendinitis.
Walker left Friday's loss to the Rockets early due to the knee injury, and the Trail Blazers seem to be leaning toward playing it safe with the second-year forward in the season finale. His expected absence could pave the way for Justin Minaya to step into a larger role.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Won't return Friday
Walker won't return to Friday's game against the Rockets due to a left knee injury. He finished with nine points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT) and five rebounds in 14 minutes.
The Trail Blazers didn't provide any specifics on the extent of Walker's injury. Given that Portland has little on the line in Sunday's regular-season finale in Sacramento, Walker could end up sitting out that game even if his knee issue ends up being a minor concern.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Logs 17/16 double-double
Walker amassed 17 points (6-14 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 16 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 36 minutes during Thursday's 100-92 loss to the Warriors.
Walker has made the most of his starting role as the season draws to a close. He's recorded double-doubles in four of his last five games. The Colorado product's future with the Trail Blazers is an open question, as the team has a lot of money invested in Jerami Grant, who figures to return as a starter next season.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Nears 20 boards in double-double
Walker finished with 14 points (5-16 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 18 rebounds and one steal across 34 minutes during Sunday's 124-107 loss to the Celtics.
Walker led all players in Sunday's game in rebounds while ending two boards shy of the 20-rebound mark and finishing as one of two players with a double-double in a balanced performance. Walker has hauled in 18 or more rebounds in two games this season, both of which have occurred over the last two outings. He has now recorded a double-double in three straight contests.

Walker ended as one of five Portland players with a double-digit scoring mark while hauling in a team-high-tying rebound total to go along with a trio of assists in a well-rounded double-double performance. Walker has recorded 13 or more boards in four games this season, including in two straight outings. He has now posted a double-double in nine contests.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Career-best night on glass
Walker posted 14 points (4-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 22 rebounds, two assists and one block in 42 minutes during Wednesday's 89-86 victory over the Hornets.
The 22 boards were a career high for Walker, who was making his third straight start since Toumani Camara (ribs) was ruled out for the rest of the season. The double-double was Walker's eighth of the season, and over 10 games since returning from a hip injury of his own, the second-year forward has averaged 10.1 points, 7.8 boards, 1.7 assists and 0.8 threes in 28.8 minutes per contest. Expect him to continue seeing big minutes for the Trail Blazers over the final weeks.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Close to double-double in loss
Walker ended with 18 points (7-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds and five assists across 40 minutes during Monday's 104-103 loss to the Magic.
Walker is likely to see an uptick in playing time over the final two weeks of the season since the Blazers ruled out Toumani Camara (ribs) for the rest of the season, and this will be a good opportunity for Portland to assess whether Walker, the second-round pick of the 2022 NBA Draft, has a place in the franchise's long-term future. Walker is averaging 8.8 points and 7.9 rebounds per game in 17 starts this season.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Gets starting nod
Walker is in the starting five for Friday's game versus the Heat, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

Trail Blazers' Jabari Walker: Supplies 15 points from bench
Walker had 15 points (6-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds and one steal in 26 minutes during Saturday's 114-111 loss to the Nuggets.
The door was open for Walker to produce with a slew of starters on the sidelines. The Colorado product figures to be a key part of Portland's rebuild as it takes stock of the value remaining on the roster, and Walker's increased role this season is an encouraging sign for his future with the team. As the 2023-24 campaign winds down, Walker is a likely candidate for increased production.
