When the Portland Trail Blazers tip off Monday night against the Atlanta Hawks, the team will look very different from their last game on New Year’s Eve.
The biggest news in all of the changes comes in a subtraction, with Damian Lillard sidelined for Monday’s game to manage his load after returning from his abdominal injury. He’ll join CJ McCollum, Cameron McGriff and Brandon Williams on the sidelines.
Jusuf Nurkic and Cody Zeller (health & safety protocols) are doubtful while Damian Lilllard (abdominal tendinopathy), CJ McCollum (right lung pneumothorax), Brandon Williams and Cameron McGriff (health & safety protocols) are out for Monday's game versus Hawks.
