The Portland Trail Blazers needed the All Star break to rest some injured bodies. Unfortunately, three key rotation players are still in need of some extra time.
When the Blazers kick off their stretch run on the road against the Sacramento Kings tomorrow night, they’ll still be without Jusuf Nurkic (calf), Justise Winslow (ankle) and Anfernee Simons (ankle).
Injury updates from Chauncey Billups:
Jusuf Nurkic is progressing well but still out tomorrow
Justise Winslow doing more but still not full-contact stuff
Anfernee Simons is already progressing, timetable still tbd
