Blazers' Anfernee Simons (health protocols) out again Thursday night
Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons will not play Thursday in the team's game against the Miami Heat.
The dunk contest winner is in the NBA's health and safety protocols surrounding COVID-19, and he'll miss another game as a result. Gary Trent Jr. and Rodney Hood could be in store for more minutes again in Simons' absence. Nassir Little will also miss another game due to the health and safety protocols.
In 36 games this season, Simons has averaged 8.0 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 13.2 FanDuel points.
