Deandre Ayton (elbow) cleared Friday for Portland

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton will play Friday in the team's game against the Miami Heat.

What It Means:

Ayton has been sidelined lately due to left elbow tendinitis. However, after entering the day with a questionable tag, he has received the green light to take the floor to kick off the weekend. Expect Ayton to start, which will likely send Duop Reath back to a role off the bench.

Our models project Ayton for 18.4 points, 11.7 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 38.6 FanDuel points across 36.9 minutes of action.
