Stotts: Portland's Derrick Jones Jr. (foot) expected to return on Saturday
According to head coach Terry Stotts, Portland Trail Blazers forward Derrick Jones Jr. (foot) will likely be listed as probable for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks.
What It Means:
Jones is on track to return after a left foot sprain forced Portland's forward to miss four straight games. In a tough matchup against a Knicks' unit ranked sixth in defensive efficiency, our models project Jones Jr. to score 20.5 FanDuel points on Saturday.
Jone Jr.'s current projection includes 8.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 1.0 assist.
