Portland Trail Blazers forwards Deni Avdija and Jerami Grant are listed as questionable for Friday’s game at the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Avdija (quadricep) has been listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Pistons. Avdija missed Friday's game against the Thunder and might not be ready to play Sunday against Detroit. If the veteran forward can't play Sunday, Kris Murray and Jabari Walker (hand) are candidates for more time on the floor for Portland against the Pistons.

Ruled out Friday

Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija recorded the first triple-double of his career against the Cavaliers on Sunday.

Deni Avdija has continued to prove he has a place in Portland’s future. The Trail Blazers rebuild continues to improve, especially when Avdija’s triple-double is a sign of things to come.
