Rayan Rupert Latest News
Big night from downtown
Rupert recorded 14 points (5-9 FG, 4-7 3Pt), two rebounds, one block and one steal across 23 minutes off the bench during Friday's 137-114 loss to the Thunder. The 2023 second-round pick saw his biggest workload of the season as coach Chauncey Billups stuck with the hot hand from beyond the arc. Rupert had only 17 points combined in his four prior appearances, but he could see an uptick in minutes in the short term if Anfernee Simons (arm) is forced to miss any time after leaving Friday's contest midway through the fourth quarter after a hard fall following a dunk attempt.
Starting against Denver
Rupert is in the starting lineup to face the Nuggets on Saturday, Aaron J. Fentress of The Oregonian reports. Rupert will get the starting nod with Anfernee Simons (knee) sidelined. This will be Rupert's first start of the campaign, and he'll join Scoot Henderson, Toumani Camara, Kris Murray and Duop Reath in the starting unit.
Cleared to play Satruday
Rupert (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Pelicans. Although Rupert will be available, he's not a lock to see the floor with both Anfernee Simons and Scoot Henderson good to go for Saturday,
Deemed probable for Saturday
Rupert is probable for Saturday's game against the Pelicans. Rupert continues to battle a minor right ankle sprain. Despite being cleared for action, Rupert hasn't appeared in either of Portland's last two games.
Available for Thursday
Rupert (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against New York. This is good news for Portland, as they will be without Anfernee Simons (knee) on Thursday. However, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports that Rupert may not see the floor, as the Trail Blazers are going to be cautious with his ankle.
Added to injury report
Rupert is probable for Thursday's game against New York due to right ankle soreness. Rupert was dealing with right ankle soreness prior to Wednesday's victory over Atlanta, and he did not take the court despite being cleared for action. The rookie appears firmly on track to be available again, but there is no guarantee he'll feature in Portland's rotation Thursday, even with Jerami Grant (hamstring) and Jabari Walker (hip) inactive.
Gets green light
Rupert (ankle) will play in Wednesday's game against Atlanta. Rupert was initially deemed questionable for the contest but will suit up after dealing with right ankle soreness. With the Trail Blazers at full health on the wing, Rupert will likely be part of the back end of the rotation against the Hawks.
Iffy with ankle soreness
Rupert is questionable for Wednesday's game versus Atlanta with right ankle soreness. Rupert played just two minutes in his last taste of action, so his status is unlikely to impact the rotation much.
Logs garbage-time run Friday
Rupert (ankle) generated five points (1-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists across seven minutes Friday in the Trail Blazers' 122-92 win over the Grizzlies. Though he made his first appearance for the Trail Blazers since Jan. 29, Rupert wasn't a part of head coach Chauncey Billups' rotation, as he didn't check into the game until Portland held a 32-point lead with 7:14 remaining in the fourth quarter. Rupert, who recently missed time with a right ankle sprain, could soon head to the G League's Rip City Remix to get more extended playing time.
