The Portland Trail Blazers have ruled out Damian Lillard (foot), C.J. McCollum (hand) and Allen Crabbe (foot) for Wednesday's regular season finale against the New Orleans Pelicans.
While they've been given injury designations, this is really just a day of rest for those three as Portland has locked up the 8 seed in the Western Conference, and the result of tonight's game can't affect that. Look for Shabazz Napier to see as many minutes as he can handle in what will be a very thin back-court rotation tonight.
numberFire's nERD Power Rankings have the Blazers ranked 15th in the NBA and 8th in the Western Conference as we head into the playoffs. We project them for a tiny 0.4 percent chance of winning the NBA Championship.
